CNAE Brazil 72—Scientific research and development
Division · Classificação Nacional de Atividades Econômicas (2.3 (2025))
Where 72 sits
- M Professional, scientific and technical activities
- 72 Scientific research and development
Contains 2 narrower codes
What 72 includes
- This division comprises three types of research and development activities: basic research activities, consisting of experimental or theoretical work developed with the aim of obtaining new knowledge about the causes of observable phenomena or effects, without the expectation of a specific application or use; applied research activities, consisting of original investigations aimed at acquiring new knowledge directed primarily towards a specific objective or purpose; and experimental research activities, consisting of systematic work based on prior knowledge, involving research or experiments aimed at creating or improving materials, products, devices, processes, systems, and services.
What 72 excludes
- This division does not include higher education, although it contains research and development activities (group 85.3); market research (group 73.2) and the management of resources and financing of research activities by the public sector (group 84.1).
