The 3rd edition of Research.com has published its ranking of the best researchers in Business and Management based on data consolidated from various data sources, including OpenAlex and CrossRef. Teacher researcher at EMLV, Dr. Surajit Bag, appears in Research.com’s 2024 ranking of the best Business and Management Scientists in France.
The best scientists ranking is a reliable line-up of leading researchers from Business and Management based on a meticulous analysis of 166,880 scholars determined from various bibliometric data sources.
Over 8531 scientists were investigated in the area of business and management. With 33 scholars, including Surajit Bag, France ranks 9th globally.
The range of Business and Management Research
The bibliometric data for estimating the citation-based metrics were gathered by the end of 2023, and the position in the ranking is based on a scientist’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which considers only papers and citation data for an examined discipline.
Establishing the ranking position by D-index
The position in the ranking is established using each scholar’s D-index according to metrics compiled from OpenAlex and CrossRef, which are the most trustworthy and well-established bibliometric databases of this type accessible to the scientific community.
What is the D-index inclusion threshold for Business and Management?
The D-index threshold for including a scientist to be considered is set to 30 if most of their publications are in Business and Management.
The acceptance criteria for scientists to be considered for ranking top researchers are based on the D-index, the ratio of contributions made within the given discipline, and the researchers’ awards and achievements.
The D-index threshold for considering leading researchers is set at an increment of 10 depending on the total number of scientists assessed for each discipline, ensuring that the top 1% of the best scientists are incorporated into the list. There should be a proximity of 30% or less between a scholar’s general H-index and their D-index.
Critical Findings for Business and Management in France
In France, the average D-index for the top 3% of scientists is 96, compared to an average of 48 for all 33 researchers featured in the ranking.

The average number of publications in Business and Management for the top 3% of scientists in the ranking is 350, compared to an average of 196 for all 33 scholars. The average number of citations for the top 1% of scientists is 15871, compared to 15871 for all 33 scholars.
As for Surajit Bag‘s latest research, he is currently working on a project related to resilient circular supply chain management, focusing on making it smart and resilient.
