A Bibliometric Analysis of Technology Management Research at PICMET for 2009–2018

Abstract

The Portland International Centre for Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET) was established in 1989. It has since become one of the leading organizations in the field of management of engineering and technology in the world. PICMET provides a strong platform for academicians, industry professionals and government representatives to exchange new knowledge derived from both research and implementation of technology management. To celebrate its 30-year journey, and to show the trends in technology management research and implementation over the past ten years (2009–2018), this paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the more than 3000 papers accepted for inclusion in PICMET conferences. The study highlights the topics, authors, journals and countries where significant research on technology management is conducted.
