OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

The paper investigates the effects of patent reclassification on the impact exerted by green inventive activities. Exploiting an original database that collects patent information from different releases of the PATSTAT database and a quasi-experiment design, the paper aims at explaining whether reclassified green patents (i.e., patents that are considered as environmentally friendly in new editions) receive more citations from subsequent patents than non-reclassified ones.
