For many years, the SV Science Statistics has been conducting a survey on research and development in business on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).

The participation and willingness of companies to respond ensures that the performance of the economy in this important area is made visible. As the surveys of recent years have shown, the German economy plays a decisive role. Companies spend two thirds of their research and development expenses.

Eckerle has always actively participated in these surveys in recent years and has also invested in research and development and can now bear the logo "Innovative through research".
