Neophilia Project workshop - 21 Sept 2019
The objective of the workshop was to discuss various metrics for invention novelty, reflecting on their pros and cons with the view that while a harmonization of metrics would be helpful for the cumulativeness of research, there is no perfect metric and an inventory would be helpful for comparison across different studies.

The workshop took place on 20 and 21 September 2019. The objective of the workshop was to discuss various metrics for invention novelty, reflecting on their pros and cons with the view that while a harmonization of metrics would be helpful for the cumulativeness of research, there is no perfect metric and an inventory would be helpful for comparison across different studies. To this end, SSE brought together experts from different universities to present their current research on the topic, as well as engage in discussion about invention metrics. This workshop was organized within the context of a grant House of Innovation received from the Jan Wallander and Tom Hedelius Foundation.
