Reviewing the Domain of Technology and Innovation Management: A Visualizing Bibliometric Analysis. (June 2019) - Huang, Yanyi
Technology and innovation management (TIM) plays an increasingly important role in the survival and prosperity of firms and economic growth of countries, which makes it increasingly important to trace the trajectory of this research field. However, to date, few studies have analyzed the evolution of the field of TIM quantitatively. Aiming to achieve an overall understanding of the research in the field of TIM, this study extracts all publications in the top 13 journals on TIM and their references that could be located in the Web of Science. Next, through cocategory analysis, cocitation analysis, cokeyword analysis, and coauthor analysis, the crucial intellectual structure of the TIM field is identified, and the distribution and evolution of the hot spots of this field are presented. An overall picture, emerging trends, and key points of the field of TIM are provided, which might contribute to our understanding and future studies of TIM.
