Abstract
Service research is accumulating rapidly, and an
increasing number of scholars from
different disciplines are contributing to this research.
Interest in services has also grown
among practitioners, implying that policymakers and
managers of private companies and
public organizations expect applicable research results.
VTT aims to answer these expectations
while simultaneously strengthening its role as a
well-known research partner in
the scientific community. In the following, we summarize
current and emerging topics
and approaches in VTT's service research. In order to
link our work to more general
efforts in the international research community, we first
present a brief overview of general
trends in this research area.
