The Scientific business of Thomson Reuters has announced that it has received an R&D 100 Award for its intellectual property research and analysis platform, Thomson Innovation (www.thomsoninnovation.com). The R&D 100 Awards are presented annually by R&D Magazine and recognise the 100 most technologically significant products that have been introduced to the marketplace in the past year.
Thomson Innovation was selected as an award winner for 2008 by an independent judging panel because it is considered an important new product that leapfrogs current technology, according to the editors of R&D Magazine. It is an integrated research solution that enables the simultaneous searching of editorially-enhanced patent information, scientific literature, business data and news with analytic, collaboration and alerting tools. Thomson Innovation also has the broadest English-language coverage of Asia-Pacific patent information in the world, which is critical to support global research and development activity.
Full details on this year's R&D 100 Award winners will be published in the September issue of R&D Magazine.
