In liberalisation, privatisation, globalisation and recession (LPGR) generation, R&D performance measurement is different from country to country and firm to firm. Technology is a very credential factor affecting the performance of R&D organisations. Factors influencing R&D performance differ from one country to another, indicating the effect of diverse socio-culture settings of the countries around the world.
