Title Academic cited by Cummings wants to redraw map of research spending Media name/outlet Financial Times Media type Web Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 27/05/20 Description The government must shift more public spending on research and development outside the south-east of England if it is to increase national productivity substantially, new research advocates.
