Abstract

Ee review existing quantitative studies that address, either directly or indirectly, the relationship between migration and innovation. We first consider general studies on the growing phenomenon of highly skilled (tertiary educated) migration, which makes use of macro information from national census and labour force survey data (sections2). We then compare them to reports (by OECD and other organisations) on the international mobility of doctoral holders and academic scientists, who represent the most mobile category among the highly skilled (section 3) and to a set of recent set of studies on foreign inventors’ contribution to national and international knowledge spillovers (section 4). Section 5 concludes.
