Manchester Institute of Innovation Research, Research institute at Alliance Manchester Business School, United Kingdom
The Manchester Institute of Innovation Research is a research facility at Alliance Manchester Business School that studies technology management, science policy, and regional innovation. The institution examines how new technologies emerge, spread through society, and shape economic and social change.
The facility was established in 1967 as part of the Department of Liberal Studies in Science at Victoria University of Manchester. Following university restructuring in 2004, it became integrated into its current organizational framework.
The institute maintains a collaborative network of 50 full members and 30 PhD researchers who shape discussions about innovation and technological development.
Visitors can become familiar with research findings through published articles, policy papers, and reports that are publicly available. Those interested in learning more about the work can visit the website or contact researchers directly.
The facility awards an annual Frederick Raphael Jevons Lecture, named after the pioneer who established innovation studies at the university. This tradition honors the intellectual foundations that support current research efforts.
