Perspectives of Innovations, Economics and Business (PIEB) is an international, peer-reviewed research journal.
The journal focuses on interdisciplinary issues which develop in various areas of innovation management. Therefore, the scope of the journal covers but not limited to the innovation-related issues in areas of knowledge management, technology transfer and commercialization, product and business development, innovation and technology management, innovation marketing and policy and macro- and organization levels.
Editors accept for reviewing the articles which aim to discover and research the various linkages and relations between innovations and entrepreneurship, values and organizational culture, individual and social values, technology and product development, business management, economic development.
The Perspectives of Innovations, Economics and Business (PIEB) covers, in particular, the following issues in its scope including:
- Innovations, economic growth, and development. Benefits of innovation to consumers, businesses and the economy as a whole. The contribution of innovations to productivity, economic growth, and sustainable development.

- Innovations, technology transfer, and commercialization. How technology transfer and commercialization drives innovation processes.
PIEB has a specific focus on the concept of development issues both within the globe and regions. We wish to create the environment favorable for communication that produces innovation, opens minds and serves as an exchange of ideas among regions, countries and cultures.
PIEB publishes original research, case studies, and review papers made by scholars, professionals and experts on innovation concepts, strategies, models, products and processes, tools and techniques, technologies and policies. The journal considers both quantitative and qualitative research designs and methodologies.
PIEB belongs to those research periodicals that stick to open access model. The journal follows funding model that does not charge readers or their institutions for electronic access. In other words, we provide to readers the free online access to read and download scientific articles. This model provides a greater reach of interested readers to the published articles.
In the beginning, all volumes appear first as a list with names of articles and authors. At this stage, the articles can have relevant abstracts and keywords, but not a pdf documents in a final version. In this phase, papers were only selected and are pending for review and other editorial procedures. Articles in pdf are available for download only after final updating - when they already passed the whole editorial process and are agreed with the authors. When this process ends, the link becomes active and pdf available for download.
Important note for authors: Until the volume 13th (issue 2), the journal was being published equally in electronic and hard print formats. Since that volume the main publication format is electronic/online.

Sample article template
- Please read the following guidelines and use the sample article format for submission of your paper since only articles formatted accordingly may be accepted. This sample template can help you avoid mistakes in the formatting process of your original article. Do not send us articles in other formats (e.g., pdfs). Improperly formatted articles will not be considered for screening and review process. We made this basic template to save your time in reading detailed instruction and guidance.
Screening, editorial analysis, and peer-review procedures
- All articles submitted to PIEB undergo screening and followed with a peer-reviewing process.
- The corresponding author should send the formatted article and necessary attachments through the Online Submission Form.
- The author who submits the manuscript for publication accepts the responsibility of notifying all co-authors of the manuscript being submitted. The corresponding author must fill in and sign the Declaration of Contribution (in case there are two authors or more), which should be submitted together with the manuscript.
- After initial screening, the titles and abstracts of the articles, which receive a positive evaluation, will be published online.
- Every article proceeds double-blind peer-review analysis by editorial and external experts. The submitted paper is reviewed by at least two independent reviewers (outside of the authors' affiliated entity). The PIEB_review_form and contain a clear referees' statements concerning paper's publishing approval or its rejection. Reviewers should evaluate the quality of an article based both on established criteria and own views of experts. The reviewer is expected to fill the review form and send to the editorial department.
Quality control
- Papers accepted undergo quality control by Editorial board and peer reviewers. All research articles in these journals undergo a peer review process, based on initial editor screening and anonymous expertise of reviewers. Articles previously published, those under consideration by another journal, and those with a pre-existing copyright may not be submitted. The author must ensure that about half of the paper contents or core idea has not been published anywhere else. In other words, authors should prove the considerable adjustment made and value added in their submissions.
Language
- Articles must be written in English.
Title
- The title should use descriptive terms and phrases that accurately highlight the core content of the paper. Title of your paper is the most important determinant of how many people will read it. An effective research paper title provides: condensing the paper’s content in a few words; capturing the readers’ attention; differentiating the paper from other papers of the same subject area.
- It is advised to keep the title brief and clear, concise and informative. Avoid abbreviations.
- Use active verbs instead of complex noun-based phrases, and avoid unnecessary details.
- Basically, a good title for a research paper is typically around 10 to 12 words long. A lengthy title may seem unfocused and take the readers’ attention away from an important point.
Author names and affiliations
- Full names should be provided. Please indicate affiliations of the author. Indicate the authors' affiliation addresses below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the Author's name and in front of the appropriate address.
- Authors should also write the abbreviated names of all authors (with initials): e.g. Peterson, G. F., Palmer, E. H., Logynov, A. V., etc. Correct surnames and initials are important to cite the published article and indexing the article in databases.
Contacts
- Ensure that telephone and fax numbers (with country and area code) are provided in addition to the e-mail address and the complete postal/corresponding address.
- All published articles usually show the full corresponding address of the main author
Abstract
- A concise abstract should briefly state the purpose of the research and the main results. An abstract must be presented in English and separate from the article, so it must be able to stand alone.
- An abstract summarizes one comprehensive paragraph (SHOULD NOT be very short). The abstract covers the major aspects of the entire paper. They include a) the research problem(s) you investigated, a statement of the paper’s main contribution; b) the overall purpose/aim of the study; c) major findings or trends found as a result of your analysis; d) a brief summary of your interpretations and conclusions.
- The Abstract should reveal the value the value/contribution of the article.
- The Abstract should preferably attract the attention of readers
- The Abstract should be written in an active rather than passive voice.
- The abstract SHOULD NOT contain: lengthy background information; references to other literature; using ellipticals [i.e., ending with "..."] or incomplete sentences; abbreviations, jargon, or terms that may be confusing to the reader.
- Write the abstract after you have finished writing your whole paper. The best approach is to write the abstract after you have completed writing your whole article. Define and pick out key statements from your introduction, methods, results, and discussion sections while compiling your abstract. Edit your abstract carefully to make it cohesive and persuasive. After finishing the Abstract, authors should remove all extra information, check cohesiveness, and then logically connect sentences with each other to ensure that the information flows well. Also, authors need to check once again that there is consistency between the information presented in the abstract and in the paper. One example of sequence order can be the as follows: purpose; basic study design, methodology, and techniques used; major findings; summary of your interpretations, conclusions, and implications.
Keywords
- Keywords ensure that your paper is indexed well by databases and search engines, and thus improve the discoverability of your research. Therefore, keywords should be selected after careful consideration.
- Use relevant keywords to facilitate correct classification in relevant indexes. The keywords should be words which are highly relevant to your work and found in the text of your abstract. Include 5-10 important words or short phrases central to your research in both the abstract and keywords sections.
Introduction
- The Introduction should (could) contain the following points: the clear explanation what problem/issue is taken to study in the paper; the background information delivered to specific points; the clear problem statement; description of the major contribution of the authors to the research of the targeted problem; explaining the organisation (what the authors plan to make in every main section) of the paper in the last paragraph in the Introduction.
- The introduction should start straightforward with the issue you research in this paper. Avoid general and abstract sentences. Authors should mention the interesting issue and the related problem statement. Narrow the background information down to specific points. A writer should not include details in the research paper introduction.
- Style of writing should be persuasive. Authors should care about reasoning around the issue chosen for the research, about the importance of the issue.
- Preferably the introduction should not replace the Literature review (as it is a different section). The latter should basically follow after the finishing the Introduction section.
- Authors should clearly state what their contribution to the existing research is.
- Explain briefly major questions and/or hypotheses.
- Mention briefly on methodology how you are approaching (method, model, testing, review, etc.) to the questions. You must make clear whether you are testing a model, evaluating a model, making a review of policy, etc. Authors should indicate to data used in the research.
- Explain briefly your main results; how the obtained findings differ from previous work and what the implications of these findings are.
Writing Style guidelines
- Figures should be done in MS Word and must be editable.
- Authors can find useful the selected guidelines regarding the writing style.
- Well-balanced structure of the article: Build up a good outline (structure) of your article. A sample of the outline can look as follows:
Introduction: Pose an central question or problem, describe problm statement, explain the organisation of the paper (how the article is organized, composed)
Literature review: Survey the sufficient literature to discover existing approaches and results on the central questions and problems of your article
Methods/Data: Formulate your hypothesis and describe your data. Clearly specify data, tools, and models.
Results: Present your results with the help of graphs and charts
Discussion: Critique your method and/or discuss any policy implications
Research limitations: Explain what are the limitations of your study
Conclusions: Summarize what you have done; pose questions for further research
References: Verify all references to all used literature sources in the article. Do not put references which do not directly links to your main text in the article. Carefully check the APA style for in-text citation and for references of different types.Constructive evaluation of results: Don’t exaggerate. In an original research paper, don’t overstate your contribution to the literature.
- The scope of literature review: If your article is a review paper, rather than original research, your scope for critiquing the literature is broader. But your critique should be focused and constructive.
- Clarity: Authors should provide the clarity of all aspects and components of the research paper. Clarity is hard to achieve, but revising and reworking a paper ensures it is easy to read.
- Logical nexus: In all parts of the article, try to keep the focus on reasoning around your central questions. State your hypothesis and proceed deductively to reach your conclusions
- Wordiness: Avoid excess verbiage. Omit needless words (concise writing is clear writing).
- Syntax: Check the syntax of every sentence to avoid vague, complex and indecipherable meaning. Remove what is not needed, and keep revising until you get down to a simple, efficient way of communicating
- Active voice preference: Use the active voice, minimize using the passive voice
Tables and figures
- Any manuscript which does not conform to the above instructions may be returned for the necessary revision before publication.
- Tables should be numbered consecutively in the text in Arabic numerals.
- Clearly and precisely describe your tables and figures. Make clear statements which describe how the results in the table and/or figure fit into the overall theme of the paper and support your hypotheses and reasoning.
- Please put Figures and Tables on the end of your paper and make a notice in the text between what paragraphs you want the graphics
- Figures should be done in MS Word and must be editable.
- Do not copy and pace the figures from digital books, brochures, journals, etc. If you decide to use them, make sure using good imaging tools and soft to provide clear and correct image after placing it to the article.
- In your submission process attach separately (when you consider it necessary) the images with sufficient resolution. So, editors can use original images for a better quality of the final article.
Formulas
- Authors should write all formulas in clear form. Preferably, write all formulas and mathematical signs, variables and parameters in the text with the help of Math type tool or Formula tool in the Microsoft Word.
Footnotes
- The use of footnotes should be kept to a minimum and numbered consecutively throughout the text with superscript Arabic numerals.
References
- Be very accurate in wring references. Put ONLY references which you are discussing/noting in the MAIN BODY of the article. Every work cited in the text must appear in the references; every work listed in the references must be cited in the text. The references should be in alphabetical order.
- Please refer to APA 6th edition citation style. While preparing your submission in MS Word we also strongly encourage to use the Citations & Bibliography tools. Link 1 Link 2
- The following websites may be also useful while preparing the APA 6th style references: citationmachine.net, citethisforme.com
- The author should make sure that there is a strict one-to-one correspondence between the names and years in the text and those on the list. The list of references should appear at the end of the main text. It should be double-spaced and listed in alphabetical order by author's name.

Acknowledgments and funding
Coherence of study
Reviewing
Editing
As a publisher, we strive to prevent the occurrence of occasional and limited cases of retraction and withdrawal of the published articles. As the costs of securing retraction and withdrawal are high for the publisher. Effective screening, peer-reviewing, verifying authorship, and other preventive procedures usually help to minimize such rare cases in the publishing practice. Below are the important rules for retraction and withdrawal policies of the PRADEC Publishing. These approaches and rules may be revised, supplemented, amended, etc.
Article retraction
The publisher will follow the selected standards which have been developed by a number of library and scholarly bodies. Reasons for retraction can include infringements of ethical codes, multiple submission, false claims of authorship, plagiarism, fraudulent, need to correct errors in submission or publication, other reasons as well. The publisher recognizes the retraction as an occasional feature in the academic publishing.
The following actions will be made under retraction policy:
- A retraction note titled “Retraction: [article title]” will be published in the separate article at the end of the related online issue
- In the HTML version will the record [near the title] which can be e.g. as 'RETRACTED'
- The PDF version of the retracted article can be preserved with some special note at the beginning of the article
- The DOI and HTML links will be preserved
Article removal and/or withdrawal
Article after the publication is not subject to removal, except for the sole discretion of the publisher. When editors screen, review and publish the article online or/end in print the article cannot be withdrawn until the decision of editors and publisher. The published articles go immediately to indexing archives and DOI depositories.
Full rights for the removal of the publication of the article remain to the publisher. Retraction or removal of published article can arise in very rear and exceptional circumstances. Usually, it takes a long time to make a deeper analysis, examination of reasons and negotiations.
Corresponding author must fill in and sign the Declaration of contribution (in case there are two authors or more) which should be submitted together with manuscript using the Online Submission form.
The journal is indexed/registered/covered by the following services:
Academic Journals Database, AgEcon Search, BASE, CABI, CEEOL, EBSCO Discovery Service, EBSCO Business Source Elite, E-International Scientific Research Journal Consortium (E-ISRJC), Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek EZB (Regensburg University Library), e-LIBRARY.RU, DOAJ (2010-2016), Gale, Global Health (CABI), Google scholar, LibSearch (Maastricht University), Open J-Gate, RePEc, ResearchGate, Ulrich’s Periodicals Directory, VSL Open, JournalSeek, Research Bible, Scirus, Knowledge Network, Academic Publishing Platforms, CiteFactor, Socionet, EconBiz, ERIH PLUS, The German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) ‒ Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library, Scilit, Open Access Library (OALib), Web of Science Specialist Collection - CAB Abstracts.
We continue to work on indexation issue to provide international exposure of research papers published in our journals. However, sustaining in listings of top indexes imposes very high demands and special responsibility for the editors. This inevitably increases the time length needed for complex reviewing and analyzing the scientific articles received. We believe that indexation makes all articles well accessible and increases their potential impact on knowledge markets.








IMPORTANT: This note can be somehow similar to other few journals of the publisher (Prague Development Center). Therefore, the text may partially or completely coincide with the requirements in other journals - BEH, ATI, and MHSJ. If you are interested in reviewing articles for PRADEC journals, we would like to invite your participation. Manuscript reviewers are vital to the publications process.
Call for reviewers
