Welcome to Innovation: Management, Policy and Practice (ISSN 1447-9338), the new manifestation of R&D Enterprise: Asia Pacific (ISSN 1440-1266). With this triple issue volume (Volume 4/1-3), spanning 2002, we complete the transition to the new journal format. A new title, new web site (www.innovation-entreprise.com, launching March 2003), expanded Aims & Scope, revised Editorial Board, new article categories, detailed Author Guidelines and revised subscription pricing structure are all introduced with this volume. However, we remain in transition, with incremental expansions of the editorial board, free web content (full text of abstracts, book reviews, book lists, guest editorials, calendar items, Innovation Education articles, news, new product information) and delivery platform planned for Volume 5 in 2003.
