Role of knowledge management in promoting research and development in business organisations
by Richa Sharma
International Journal of Business and Globalisation (IJBG), Vol. 13, No. 4, 2014

Abstract: Serendipity leads to discoveries and innovative knowledge. Mergers and acquisitions also make available knowledge, which can give new directions and impetus to the innovative R&D activities. Organisations dealing with the development of improved new products continuously use KM extensively for promoting their R&D work. In fact cross-national culture differences disappear in KM practices. Higher educational and research institutes are exploiting KM in their knowledge generation and dissemination pursuits where R&D, consultancy or sponsored project work is performed routinely. KM and R&D are inseparable and KM speeds up R&D work.
