Abstract: National competitiveness in the context of sustainable development is an important concern at international and European level. The greatest economists have been dedicating their research to developing assessment methodologies for national, regional and firm competitiveness. Various impressive international institutions like IMD, WEF, EC, WB conduct and publish annual reports regarding national competitiveness. Recently, Romania is very present in all the international and European reports trying to identify various solutions for increasing competitiveness. In this context, this article is trying to study by comparison our country’s national and sectorial competitiveness, emphasizing the strengths, but also the weaknesses and also trying to add some competent proposals, ideas, recommendations and opinions for improving our national competitiveness. The second part of the article presents the working methodology and the results obtained for our country’s competitiveness compared to four other EU member states (reference member state). This conducted analysis is based on the WEF indicators used for determining national competitiveness and EC recommended indicators for determining RDI performance. Both of the competitiveness plans (national and RDI level) are presented by comparative means, aiming to identifying certain correlations between them.
