Overview
At Cambridge Digital Innovation we believe it is important for research to be relevant to the challenges that exist in our world today.
It is also important that research can be translated into useful action within practice settings.
We support this drive to deliver impact in a number of ways beyond our continued direct collaborations with industry.
RICK journal section
Scholars are increasingly challenged to demonstrate wide impact of academic research through multidisciplinary diffusion of knowledge and implications for practice and for society.
To promote development and publication of scholarly papers dedicated to this mission, Information and Organization has introduced a special section focused on research impact and contributions to knowledge (RICK).
Professor Michael Barrett, Section Editor at Information and Organization, leads the RICK Section which encourages submission for a range of articles including conceptual articles, reviews, translational research articles, digital futures, and articles on global challenges.
