Footnotes should be avoided, but any short, succinct notes making a specific point, may be placed in number order following the alphabetical list of references.

Figures
All illustrations, such as diagrams or photographs, are referred as Figures. They should be black and white, not colour, and numbered sequentially. Please place them at the end of the paper, rather than interspersed in text.
Originals of line diagrams will be reduced and used directly, so please prepare them to the highest standards. Bear in mind that lettering may be reduced in size by a factor of 2 or 3, and that fine lines may disappear. Electronic copies of the figures are also required.

Units of measurement
Journal of technology management & innovation follow the International System for units of measurement.
Imperial units will be converted, except where conversion would affect the meaning of a statement, or imply a greater or lesser degree of accuracy.
