A Digital System for Managing Activities Related to Scientific Research, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship:

The JOIP platform offers official institution pages the necessary digital tools to build and manage workflow programs for activities, events, competitions, conferences, and grants in a manner that is consistent with their policies and the nature of their work. This includes creating various types of application requests, with high flexibility in form design, receiving applications, forwarding them to approved evaluators for review, and tracking requests. The JOIP platform serves as a center for organizing the work of the Innovation, research, and scientific development ecosystem, thereby stimulating partnership and networking opportunities among stakeholders.
 

Matchmaking and Referral Among stakeholders in the Innovation, Research, and Scientific Development Ecosystem:

The JOIP platform works to stimulate partnership opportunities and facilitate the building of distinguished partnerships between institutions concerned with Innovation, research, scientific development, entrepreneurship, and individuals such as researchers, experts, entrepreneurs, and other innovators with local, regional, and international funders. This involves:

  • Matchmaking between platform users through artificial intelligence technology built on algorithms that work based on specialization, research area, and more.
  • Allowing stakeholders in the Innovation ecosystem to benefit from recommendations and referrals to increase their chances of collaboration and partnership formation.
  • Identifying local, regional, and international grant-making and funding entities, the conditions for benefiting from them, and how to apply.
  • Finding opportunities to commercialize innovative research and ideas among researchers and institutions, leading to a knowledge-based economy founded on Innovation for sustainable development.
     
Observatory for Information, Data, and Performance Indicators on the Innovation, Research, and Scientific Development Ecosystem:

 Observatory for Information, Data, and Performance Indicators on the Innovation, Research, and Scientific Development Ecosystem:
JOIP serves as an observatory for all information, data, and performance indicators on the Innovation, research, and scientific development ecosystem in Jordan. This is achieved through managing, governing, and developing a dynamic database for stakeholders and providing a dashboard to display quantitative and qualitative performance indicators such as:

  • National Innovation performance indicators.
  • Information related to global indicators digitally and graphically.
  • Coordination with official entities responsible for preparing some global indicators to exchange data and information within a unified, highly reliable national framework.

In addition to providing all information about activities, events, and news, it serves as the main source for dynamic vital statistics in a digital and graphic form. This is done through the design of measurement and performance tools to calculate the Innovation indicators that will be activated on the platform. The aim is to issue reports and recommendations about the weaknesses in the Innovation, research, and scientific development ecosystem in Jordan and supply decision-makers with them for correction. This, in turn, will positively reflect on the national knowledge-based economy.

 

Digital Gateway for Innovative Works and Research:

The JOIP platform works to transform Jordanian knowledge content into digital content by acting as a digital gateway. This is done through the creation of Jordanian Digital Object Identifiers (JDOI) for innovative works and research, which can be accessed from any internet browser. This contributes to sharing knowledge, exchanging ideas and experiences among stakeholders in the Innovation, research, and scientific development ecosystem, and further facilitating collaboration between Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI). It promotes Jordan as a regional hub for Innovation and entrepreneurship.
