The Healthcare & Science business of Thomson Reuters has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Science & Technology Policy Research and Information Center (STPI) on collaborative efforts to provide direction and support for Taiwan's Science & Technology (S&T) development. STPI is a non-profit organisation under the National Applied Research Laboratories in Taiwan.
STPI aims to conduct S&T policy research in order to provide Taiwan's government with the necessary information to accelerate the growth of research and innovation in Taiwan's S&T industry, and improve Taiwan's S&T competitiveness in the global arena.
Under the MOU, Thomson Reuters will provide its bibliometric expertise as well as databases and professional support to help the STPI develop appropriate and consistent methodologies for measuring S&T output of research institutions and technology companies in Taiwan that are keeping with evaluation standards used by the international research community.
STPI and Thomson Reuters will work together to cultivate greater public awareness and understanding of issues and topics concerning Taiwan's S&T development and applied research. This will be achieved by a balanced and objective analysis of international trends in S&T development, and development of consistent methodologies using bibliometrics to monitor Taiwan's S&T output, which will assist STPI in planning its policies and long-term strategy.
