VP Institute is an online forum for the circulation of “TechMining” research results and case studies. TechMining, a special form of “Big Data” text-based analytics, aims to generate practical intelligence using VantagePoint text-mining software as well as other analytical & visualization applications for:

• Management of Technology applications (competitive technological intelligence, technology roadmapping, future-oriented analyses, technical emergence, etc.)
• Science and innovation policy applications (interdisciplinary research metrics, science maps, network analyses, research evaluation, etc.).

We use text-mining and visualization software to discover knowledge and inform decision-making. VP Institute is relevant to academic researchers and students from a range of fields including Bibliometrics, Scientometrics, Patent Analytics, Innovation Management, and Information Science.
