Abstract
Enabling the public to grasp the state and trends of emerging technologies facilitates technology adoption, socioeconomic investment, and business growth. Science journalism is crucial in connecting the scientific community with the public. This study focuses on the metaverse due to its rapid expansion. To validate knowledge extraction, we analyze relevant metaverse news from TechCrunch.com, covering 2020 to 2023, to build the domain knowledge schema. This study introduces a novel approach that combines Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling with bibliometrics as a computational intelligent method to discover topics and construct knowledge based on technology news framing. LDA is used to identify the topics in metaverse news, while a bibliometrics method, i.e., co-word networks analysis, clarifies term association strength and visualizes the findings. The study outlines the seven key elements highlighted in technology journalism, which shape public perception and expectations of new technologies. These elements offer insights into the factors influencing the development, diffusion, and adoption of new technologies. The extracted representative terms and enterprises from eight topics help map the knowledge architecture diagram for the domain. The research contributes to helping stakeholders systematically understand metaverse technology topics and demonstrate collaborative partnerships between enterprises.

Asia Pacific Management Review (APMR), peer-reviewed and published quarterly, pursues to publish original and high quality research articles and notes that contribute to build empirical and theoretical understanding for concerning strategy and management aspects in business and activities. Meanwhile, we also seek to publish short communications and opinions addressing issues of current concern to managers in regards to within and between the Asia-Pacific region. The covered domains but not limited to, such as accounting, finance, marketing, decision analysis and operation management, human resource management, information management, international business management, logistic and supply chain management, quantitative and research methods, strategic and business management, and tourism management, are suitable for publication in the APMR.
