Scholarly Content Fuels the Engines of Innovation in Modern Industry

Why Research-Based Content is Valuable for Industry Practitioners and Professionals

By Author Relations Team on Aug 30, 2024
Why Research-Based Content Is Valuable For Industry Practitioners And Professionals For more than 35 years, IGI Global's scholarly content has been widely used by academicians and independent researchers. An increasing number of industry practitioners and professionals are benefitting from the expert research results found within IGI Global book and journal publications.

This cutting-edge content allows research & development (R&D) professionals to stay up-to-date on the latest developments and new opportunities in their respective fields, as well as the ability to find potential solutions to everyday challenges in their day-to-day operations. Below are 10 reasons why research-based content is progressively becoming an invaluable resource in aiding corporate education, research and development (R&D), professional development, as well as business process improvement.
Well-Rounded Viewpoints from Experienced Researchers

Those utilizing scholarly research content benefit from hours, and even years, of well-rounded viewpoints and research results from international experts, compiled into a single reference source. Top companies with in-house research and development (R&D) departments still complement their findings by reviewing published research by other experts in their respective fields.
Accuracy of Information

Scholarly research publications undergo an intense peer-review process which ensures that the research results are accurate, up-to-date, and presented appropriately. Accuracy of information is crucial when under certain pressures of day-to-day operations. Companies looking to power their AI initiatives need quality data in order to see beneficial results.
Short-Term Decision Making and Long-Term Planning

Scholarly content contains applied research results which highlight the various opportunities, challenges, and potential solutions that can aid in short-term decision making and long-term strategic planning. For instance, real-life business case studies offer an in-depth look at modern organizations facing real-life challenges, and show the various steps taken to succeed in an uncertain economy.
Stay Up-to-Date on the Latest Developments

Industry professionals can stay up-to-date on the latest developments in their respective fields, providing new perspectives that they may not have thought of before. Allowing them to stay relevant and competitive!
Explore New Ways to Utilize Current Processes and Tools

Application-specific research can assist professionals and practitioners in uncovering new ways to use the tools and technologies they are already working with, or assist them in transitioning into different industries.
Proven Methods

Time after time, research published by academics can lead to world-changing discoveries which could revolutionize an industry - or generate a new one entirely. A perfect example is the discovery of the relational database industry, which was first presented as a research paper by two Italian researchers at a conference in Italy. This eventually led to the discovery of relational database structures and systems that allow vast use of database applications in every facet of life.
Time Sensitive

Academic research is diverse and available expeditiously, affording the opportunity to build a solid foundation for innovation. IGI Global has optimized our processes to produce high quality research books that can move from start to finish in under a year - getting ahead of fast-evolving technologic discoveries.
Provides Real Value

New innovations powered by advanced research can drive significant returns on business investments in quality data.
Fuels Innovation and Discovery

Published research results by academic researchers fuels the engines of innovation and discovery for the global economy and industry. Some of the findings prove valuable, and some are deemed useless. However, without this ongoing research, the engines of innovation and discovery would eventually run out of fuel and cease to exist.
Offers Theoretical Foundations

Academic research provides a theoretical foundation upon which to build a new business or even grow a struggling economy. By examining successful case studies and uncovering the tools necessary for improvement, policy makers, government officials, and entrepreneurs can apply theory to practice. Academic research can be the catalyst that ultimately shapes and forms new policies, procedures, and regulations that make an industry better, safer, and more efficient.
