Technovation’s Post

REQUEST TO THE TECHNOVATION COMMUNITY At Technovation Elsevier we strive to disseminate and acknowledge our research papers’ relevance by driving societal transformation, whether it be at the policymaking, administrative, managerial, or economic levels. In light of this, we encourage our colleagues, who have previously contributed to Technovation Elsevier, to inform us of the impact their paper(s) may have had. This impact could manifest through various avenues, such as informing and stimulating new policy and academic discussions, influencing the development and management of innovative technologies (e.g., patents), creating new managerial tools, influencing actions or changing the mindset of practitioners, initiating projects that engage society, or even embarking on impact activities such as public engagement in person or through media platforms. Evidence of such relevance can include, but not be limited to, reports, web links or other publicly available sources of information about organizations, including in society, industry, charities and government, that benefited from research outputs published in Technovation Elsevier, as well as statements provided by beneficiaries and empirical metrics demonstrating the impact. We would appreciate if you could please get in touch with us to provide us with further evidence. Georgina.Jiang@elsevier.com Thank you!!!
