OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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.
