High-technology exports (current US$)
High-technology exports are products with high R&D intensity, such as in aerospace, computers, pharmaceuticals, scientific instruments, and electrical machinery, expressed in current U.S. dollars. The World Bank publishes the indicator in the World Development Indicators from UN Comtrade data. Because values are in current US dollars, cross-year comparisons mix price and volume effects. The 8-country panel is covered 2007-2024 (India from 2009); values are null where national statistics are unavailable.
