Information services provider Thomson Reuters, US, has announced a collaboration with Taiwan's Science & Technology Policy Research and Information Centre (STPI). STPI used Thomson Reuters data in its analysis for its Taiwan Research Report, which aims to inform policymakers about the region's research landscape and global influence of its research. The report is available in Chinese as well as English for the international research community.
STPI is a non-profit organisation under the National Applied Research Laboratories in Taiwan. It conducts science and technology research to provide Taiwan's government with the necessary information to accelerate the growth of innovation and improve Taiwan's competitiveness in the global arena.
The Taiwan Research Report is a result of the MoU signing between the STPI and Thomson Reuters in June 2009. STPI is also planning to analyse the domestic research output of academic and research institutions, and government or private organisations using Thomson Reuters data.
Thomson Reuters has been providing bibliometrics expertise, databases and professional analysis to help STPI develop consistent methodologies for measuring science and technology output of research institutions and technology companies in Taiwan. These methodologies are stated to be on par with evaluation standards used by the international research community.
