Introduction

Research in business and management increasingly intersects with digital technologies, sustainability, changing consumption patterns, and organizational adaptation. Dabija’s scholarly work addresses several of these developments through studies of consumers, retailers, organizations, and emerging technologies. His affiliation with Babeș-Bolyai University provides an institutional setting for continued research and academic collaboration in marketing and related management disciplines. [1]

Research Profile

The research profile combines established marketing questions with contemporary issues in sustainability and digitalization. Institutional information lists marketing, consumer behaviour, retailing, sustainability, and artificial intelligence among the research and teaching interests. [1] This breadth supports an interdisciplinary perspective in which consumer decisions, business strategies, technological change, and societal sustainability are examined together.

Research Contributions

Documented contributions include research on sustainable consumption, retail and consumer behaviour, online and digital environments, artificial intelligence in services, and organizational responses to changing market conditions. Studies have also examined sustainability perspectives within higher education and consumer responses during periods of disruption. [3] Such work connects theoretical discussion with empirical evidence concerning contemporary business and societal challenges.

Publications

Selected publications illustrate the breadth of the research agenda. Recent work includes studies of consumer empowerment in the digital economy, corporate resilience to negative information and fake news, adaptation and resilience in retail, and consumer purchase intentions concerning food products. Other research has addressed artificial intelligence and service acceptance, teleworking, job insecurity, and sustainable products. [4]

Research Impact

The supplied bibliometric profile records 150 documents, 5,681 citations, and an h-index of 37. These figures indicate a substantial level of scholarly visibility within the stated research domain. Bibliometric indicators should nevertheless be interpreted alongside publication quality, methodological contribution, collaboration, and broader academic relevance. Current indexed records may differ as databases are updated. [5]

Award Suitability

The documented research themes and supplied scholarly metrics provide a relevant basis for consideration for a Research Excellence Award. In particular, the combination of sustained publication activity, citation visibility, interdisciplinary research interests, and documented work on contemporary business challenges aligns with criteria commonly associated with research recognition. Final award decisions remain subject to the applicable evaluation procedures of the International Academic Achievements & Awards committee.

Conclusion

Dan-Cristian Dabija represents an established academic research profile in marketing and management, with scholarly interests extending into sustainability, retailing, consumer behaviour, and artificial intelligence. His documented publications and supplied bibliometric indicators provide evidence of sustained research activity and visibility. [1] The profile therefore provides a substantive academic basis for consideration under the Research Excellence Award category.

Abstract

The Innovative Research Award profile presents Magne Supphellen as a researcher in Business, Management and Accounting affiliated with the Norwegian School of Economics. The supplied bibliometric record contains 51 documents, 1,821 citations, and an h-index of 17. [1] These indicators provide a quantitative overview of scholarly activity, while the ORCID identifier establishes a persistent connection to the researcher’s academic record. [2]

Keywords

Magne Supphellen; Innovative Research Award; Business; Management; Accounting; Norwegian School of Economics; research innovation; scholarly publications; citations; h-index; ORCID.

Introduction

Research in business and management examines organizations, markets, consumers, strategy, leadership, innovation, and related economic and social processes. Academic contributions in these fields may combine theoretical development with empirical investigation and practical relevance. Bibliographic databases and persistent identifiers provide complementary mechanisms for documenting scholarly outputs and distinguishing individual researchers. Scopus provides bibliographic and citation information, while ORCID provides persistent researcher identifiers. [1] [2]

Research Profile

The supplied profile identifies Magne Supphellen with the Norwegian School of Economics and places the research record within Business, Management and Accounting. The reported 51 documents indicate a sustained body of indexed scholarly output. The reported citation count of 1,821 and h-index of 17 provide additional bibliometric indicators of the visibility and accumulated scholarly use of the research record. [1] These measures should be interpreted as descriptive indicators rather than complete assessments of research quality.

Research Contributions

The available profile supports recognition of an established research record in the business and management domain. Bibliometric evidence can indicate scholarly reach, but the nature and significance of individual contributions require examination of the underlying publications. Such assessment may consider conceptual originality, methodological rigor, empirical evidence, theoretical relevance, practical implications, and influence on subsequent scholarship. The supplied information does not justify attributing specific discoveries or individual research findings without corresponding publication-level evidence.

Publications

The supplied Scopus record reports 51 documents associated with Magne Supphellen. [1] Individual publication titles and DOI identifiers were not included in the supplied information. Consequently, no particular publication is assigned a DOI on this page without a verified article-level record. Where available, DOI identifiers provide persistent links to scholarly publications and can be used for precise bibliographic verification. [3]

Research Impact

The reported 1,821 citations and h-index of 17 indicate measurable scholarly visibility within the supplied bibliometric record. [1] Citation-based indicators can help describe how frequently published research has been referenced, although they do not independently measure methodological quality, originality, societal value, or practical influence. A balanced evaluation therefore considers bibliometric indicators alongside publication content, peer recognition, collaboration, and demonstrated research relevance.

Award Suitability

The Innovative Research Award profile is supported by the supplied evidence of 51 scholarly documents, 1,821 citations, and an h-index of 17 within Business, Management and Accounting. [1] The documented institutional affiliation and persistent ORCID identity further support researcher identification. [2] Final award assessment should remain subject to the applicable evaluation criteria and verification of the underlying academic record.

Conclusion

Magne Supphellen is presented as a researcher affiliated with the Norwegian School of Economics whose supplied academic profile falls within Business, Management and Accounting. The reported 51 documents, 1,821 citations, and h-index of 17 provide a quantitative summary of the documented research record. [1] The ORCID identifier provides an additional persistent mechanism for researcher attribution. [2]
