A Altmetric Case Study
BI Norwegian Business School faced the challenge of maintaining its major business school accreditations, which required demonstrating concrete societal impact from its research, not just potential future influence. This was a difficult investigative task. The school turned to Altmetric and its Altmetric Explorer product to help uncover and evidence this impact.
Using Altmetric Explorer, the research administration could efficiently discover and prioritize research outputs with high attention scores, tracking mentions in policy documents and news. This solution enabled them to build compelling impact narratives, such as one linking a research paper on foreign aid directly to a high-level resignation at the World Bank. By providing this hard evidence, Altmetric helped BI Norwegian Business School successfully support its accreditation reports and maintain its prestigious global standing.
