21 Regeringens forskningsproposition 2016 Kunskap i samverkan Sverige ska vara ett internationellt attraktivt land för investeringar i forskning och utveckling. De offentliga och privata investeringarna i forskning och utveckling bör även fortsatt överskrida EU:s mål. En övergripande kvalitetsförstärkning av forskningen ska ske och jämställdheten ska öka. Samverkan och samhällspåverkan ska öka. 21
