"The European Union’s working age population has practically stopped growing and over the next couple of years it will start shrinking. The EU is also facing a situation of ‘innovation emergency’. Europe is spending 0.8% of GDP less than the US and 1.5% less than Japan every year on Research & Development (R&D). In addition, thousands of the best researchers and innovators have moved to countries where conditions are more favourable.
To counterbalance this lack of manpower, immigration from outside the EU is one source of highly skilled people, and third-country national students and researchers in particular are groups which are increasingly sought after and which the EU needs to actively attract.
Allowing third-country nationals to acquire skills and knowledge through a period of training in Europe encourages ‘brain circulation’ and supports cooperation with third countries."@en1
