IBM Center Research Announcement
The IBM Center for The Business of Government connects research to practice, supporting work by scholars that benefits government through real-world experience and analysis. Our Center’s reports are intended to spark the imagination—crafting new ways to think about government. We identify trends, new ideas, and best practices in public management and innovation.
We encourage applicants to review our research areas closely in selecting a topic, or a cross-cutting set of topics. We are looking for very practical findings and actionable recommendations—not just theory or concepts—in order to assist executives and managers to more effectively respond to mission and management challenges.
