dc.description.abstract	In Arab Gulf states, lack of trust between scientific research and industrial sectors undermines what is needed in order to discuss technological problems and solve them locally, causing increased reliance on foreign experts. The survey found five obstacles to the progress of scientific research in the Gulf states: lack of a clear methodology for allocating research funding; the weak role of the private sector in providing funding; the absence of strategy for research and development; industrial enterprises’ poor awareness of the importance of scientific research; and the absence of an index for classifying Gulf research centers in terms of quality.	en
