RESEARCH-TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT

4882

Scope/Description:

RTM is the leading peer-reviewed journal focused on the practice of innovation. We publish articles that map the cutting edge in R&D management, illustrate how management theory can be applied to real-world challenges, and give R&D managers the tools to promote innovation throughout their organizations. RTM publishes both quantitative and rigorous qualitative work, including case studies, descriptions of new practical models, and paradigms for understanding and fostering innovation. We are interested in a wide range of topics in innovation and technology management, including: • Product development processes and strategy • R&D portfolio management • R&D performance metrics • Management of technical and creative people • Strategy and innovation • Global innovation • Innovation and design, including design thinking • Innovation and organizational culture • Innovation and sustainability across the triple bottom line • New modes of innovation, including business model innovation, corporate entrepreneuring/intrapreneuring, and various forms of open innovation • Intellectual asset management • Innovations of manufacturing, including Industry 4.0 • Security, ethical, and legal challenges associated with emerging technologies and innovation nodes • Emerging trends reshaping R&D and innovation into the future

Impact Factor

The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric factor based on the yearly average number of citations on articles published by a particular journal in the last two years. In other words, the impact factor of 2024 - 2025 is the average of the number of cited publications divided by the citable publications of a journal. A journal impact factor is frequently used as a proxy for the relative importance of a journal within its field. Normally, journals with higher impact factors are often deemed to have more influence than those with lower ones. However, the science community has also noted that review articles typically are more citable than research articles.Here you can check the journal performance trends based on last 20 years of data, also check the latest journal citation reports 2025. Also Check H-Index, SCImago journal rank and journal impact factor 2025.

Other Journal Impact Indicator

Any journal impact factor or scientometric indicator alone will not give you the full picture of a science journal. That’s why every year, scholars review current metrics to improve upon them and sometimes come up with new ones. There are also other factors to sider for example, H-Index, Self-Citation Ratio, SJR (SCImago Journal Rank Indicator) and SNIP (Source Normalized Impact per Paper). Researchers may also consider the practical aspect of a journal such as publication fees, acceptance rate, review speed.
