About the Journal
About JIS
Since 2015, as an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed and open access journal,the Journal of Innovative Studies(Print: ISSN 2708-8219;Online: ISSN 2708-8227) seeks to advance theoretical and practical knowledge on innovation. In the JIS, we invite interdisciplinary researchers from business, technology, design and education to put forth their insights on innovations, so as to promote the incorporation of a broad and heterogeneous mix of research activities, as well as a fruitful intercourse with social scientists from different disciplines and fields.
Aims
In the past, we have witnessed how innovation changes the world: an earth flattened by the internet and upheavals in the music industry, reading habits, and social networking by innovative companies such as Apple, Amazon, Google, and Facebook. Yet, innovation studies as a discipline have largely failed to develop new research methods for understanding innovations of the 21st century. Thus, how can scholars in innovation studies follow up on future technology and its impacts? In this new era, governments may also need to adopt a more entrepreneurial approach towards innovation policy; hence, researchers in innovation studies must provide a better understanding of the interaction between policy-making and innovation activities. The JIS invites scholars to look forward and discuss future directions of innovation studies.

Scope
During its emerging era, the field of innovation studies was populated by "immigrants" from other disciplines. It thus became intrinsically interdisciplinary in nature - an intellectual "melting pot" characterized by diversity and an eclectic borrowing of cognitive resources from others. In the JIS, we invite interdisciplinary researchers from management, economics, sociology, psychology,design and education to put forth their insights on innovations, so as to promote the incorporation of a broad and heterogeneous mix of research activities, as well as a fruitful intercourse with social scientists from different disciplines and fields.
