The subject of the research in this article is the consideration of the concept of catch-up development in the context of the general paradigm of innovative development. The aim of the work is to reveal the content, to reveal the main characteristics and features of the new catch-up development. An analysis of existing approaches to the interpretation of the category catching up with innovative development is being carried out. The need to clarify the concept, taking into account post-industrial challenges, is revealed. It shows the expediency of interpreting catch-up innovation development not just as the introduction and adaptation of borrowed innovative solutions, but also as the formation of new institutions and mechanisms that facilitate the adaptation of innovations and expand the scope of their use. The need to use the comparative advantages of the national economy as a driver of catching up innovative development is disclosed. The conclusion is drawn that the formation of effective institutions for the development of human capital and innovative institutions is promising to meet the challenges of Russia’s catching up innovative development in the post-industrial world.

Full textAbstract:
In the modern economy of Russia, an important role is played by technologies, which are given a significant place in the concept of innovative development. The fundamental direction of this development is research and development in the field of technologies, production of products, provision of services, which is the basis for the growth of the standard of living of the population. In view of the increasing role of territorial differentiation, the analysis of regional development in the catching-up innovative economy of Russia becomes relevant, since technological lag cannot but affect the efficiency of production. This is clearly demonstrated by the integrated ratings of socio-economic and scientific-technological development of the regions of the Russian Federation. The existing models of innovative development are based on the concepts of advanced and catch-up development. The Strategy of innovative development of Russia indicates that the country is focused on the re-equipment of the economy, based on imported technologies, which corresponds to the catch-up type of development. For Russia, the option of leadership in those segments of the economy where competitive advantages are created is possible, while advanced development should take place not only in the economic sphere, but also in the social sphere. The problem of catching up with innovative economic development is a new one that requires detailed study, both in theoretical and analytical aspects. In addition, special attention should be paid to the analysis of the possibilities of implementing the strategy of advanced and catch-up innovative development in the regions of Russia, as well as the creation of territories of advanced socio-economic development and special economic zones. In many regions of the Russian Federation, there are enterprises that produce world-class products that will allow them to be leaders. One of the most common areas of innovation activity in the regions is the introduction of new technologies in the housing and utilities system and transport infrastructure.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the problem of spatial inequality of regions caused by centripetal or centrifugal forces because of agglomeration effects and interaction costs. It corresponds with the main idea of new economic geography. A differentiated approach to regional development strategizing is proposed in the study as a tool for reducing the level of spatial imbalance. Herein the use of technological arbitrage (catching-up) strategy is proposed for peripheral regions by strengthening interregional interaction. In the paper, two hypotheses are investigated: (1) The economic growth of territories, caused by industry diversification, positive externalities from Research and Development, the quality of human capital, which are typical of the ?center? type of regions and (2) The formation of a unified macroeconomic space is possible due to strategies of technological arbitrage (catchingup strategy) for peripheral regions. Its implementation is possible through innovation, industrial-technological, and trade-technological complementarity development of peripheral regions with the central regions. The research methods are: panel regression with fixed effects, Data Envelopment Analysis method, and Malmquist Productivity Index, paired interregional complementarity indices. The study focuses on 10 regions of Siberian Federal District in the Russia, which differ in scale, structure, and level of innovative economic development. The study results confirm the possibility of reducing the level of spatial inequality using catching-up strategies and innovation complementarity of the regions. These strategies proved only for technical efficiency leading regions with high index of complementarity. In regions with a low complementarity index and different industry profile, large-scale interregional cooperation has not been confirmed.

The paper examines the extent to which the inflow off oreign direct investment (FDI) helps Poland to catch up with the EU. FDI can facilitate the process of catching up mainly through transfer and diffusion of technology, which leads to upgrading oftechnological and innovative potential ofa host country. The paper is aimed at assessing whether FDI is correlated with the innovation processes in different branches ofthe Polish industry. A regression analysis conducted in this paper has confirmed that, except for low-technology industries, FDI impacts Poland’s innovation efforts and thus helps Poland to catch up with the EU.

Full textAbstract:
The medical device industry is uniquely characterized by both resourceful global companies and innovative catching-up companies. The studies by Chatterji have analyzed how large and established medical device companies could better utilize the ideas from innovative groups such as physicians. While the existing literature on the topic of open innovation is enriched, there are few studies on the partnership between larger global medical device companies and smaller catching-up medical device companies. This study focuses on a structured partnership with global medical device companies. To understand how such a deal could be better arranged, this study adopted the Analytic Hierarchy Process (hereafter, AHP) analysis to derive the success factors of such partnership with a focus on the case of the Korean medical device industry. This survey interviewed 30 experienced professionals who currently work for global medical device companies. The study results found that global medical device companies prefer a licensing deal along with broader territories. In terms of the preferred requirements for a partnership deal, the study revealed that there is strong emphasis on factors such as Quality and Intellectual Property (hereafter, IP) protection. This study has practical managerial implications for catching-up medical device companies which drive an open innovation practice with a view to accelerating their growth trajectory in the global market.

Subject. The article addresses multi-level innovative subsystems of catching-up type in various countries of the world and in Russia. Objectives. The purpose is to reveal the special aspects of investment mechanism for innovative subsystems development at various levels, in different countries of the world and in Russia. Methods. The study draws on methods of logical and statistical analysis. Results. I developed a method to classify different groups of countries of the world. Using the statistical data, they are divided into types of national economies by the quality of their economy’s information base development and by participation in the fifth technological mode. Based on the analysis of the previous experience of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) in developing the catch-up models and the analysis of the current model of innovative subsystems of Russia and its regions, I offer a method for transition to a catch-up model. Conclusions. It is essential to work out public policy measures for the use of public-private partnership mechanisms. This will enable to develop the elements of a catching-up economy model by creating innovation chains around scientific and educational institutions, in which nationally located transnational corporations would directly participate in processes of their intangible assets renewal.

Full textAbstract:
Existing studies identify two major underlying mechanisms behind East and Southeast Asia’s miraculous economic performance in the past 5 decades: accumulation and technological catching-up. This study investigates empirically the relative importance of these two mechanisms in Asian development based on a unified framework. Using canonical cross-economy panel data, the study arrives at three important findings. First, while the process of catching-up through capital accumulation played an important role worldwide, this mechanism was more salient in Asia than in other economies around the globe, especially during the region’s early phase of growth and development. Second, human capital formation had a significant positive effect on the technological catching-up process worldwide. In particular, human capital formation promoted technology adoption more strongly in Asia than in the rest of the world. Third, innovation has also been critical in facilitating recent growth in Asian economies. These results suggest that Asia’s capital-accumulation-driven growth in the early phase induced human capital formation and international technological transfers at later phases, with strong complementarities between these two types of capital. Asian economies likely went through three phases of catching-up, that is, capital accumulation, technological imitation, and then innovation. The experiences of these Asian economies in the last several decades provide critical lessons for latecomer growth and development.

Full textAbstract:
Innovation as the key element of economic development is a crucial factor in social processes. Technical innovations can be identified as prerequisites and causes of social change and cannot be created without the renewal of society. Technological and economic innovations cannot respond to all social challenges. Natural and material resources are becoming more and more scarce, so it is necessary to use investment assets as efficiently as possible, maximizing social and economic efficiency. It is a major task to address the backwardness of social disparities and to create opportunities for catching up in peripheral regions.The aim of our study is to identify the local level of catching-up opportunities that arise from social innovation efforts, and model values for other disadvantaged areas. The investigated solution is presented as a case study after a structured analysis of the local initiatives of the settlement. In addition to examining the prominent role of local actors and networks, we present the process of social innovation, the framework conditions that determine systemic functioning, as well as the social needs, potentials and barriers that determine social innovation efforts.The study identifies the social, economic and political challenges associated with social needs in peripheral regions, as well as proposals for solutions based on neuro-fuzzy modelling that can be adapted to other disadvantaged areas. Exploring solutions and innovative structures and collaborations provides an opportunity to demonstrate the role of the social innovation process in local-level catching-up initiatives.

Full textAbstract:
A presente tese, que aborda o desenvolvimento como uma questão de catching up, analisa o papel crítico das mudanças tecnológicas e das inovações para os países em desenvolvimento que desejam reduzir ou fechar o seu gap tecnológico e econômico com relação às economias mais avançadas. Neste estudo, catching up é definido como um processo no qual um país em desenvolvimento reduz o seu gap tecnológico em alguns setores chave, usando os países líderes como modelo e também inovando, com aumentos significativos de produtividade, taxas de crescimento e renda, que resultam em redução de seu gap econômico. Os principais argumentos da tese são de que a mudança tecnológica (i.e, a introdução de novas tecnologias) e a inovação tornaram-se não apenas um pré-requisito, mas a própria essência do catching up, que depende cada vez mais da capacidade dos países atrás das fronteiras tecnológica e econômica desenvolverem competências científicas e tecnológicas para adaptar e adotar novas tecnologias, e inovar localmente. A tese possui uma introdução, três capítulos e conclusão. O primeiro capítulo, revisita contribuições teóricas e empíricas fundamentadas na abordagem do catching up. Embora priorize os aspectos tecnológicos e a inovação, o capítulo também chama a atenção para outros elementos críticos para o catching up, como as instituições, a intervenção do Estado e o financiamento. O segundo capítulo analisa as experiências de catching up do Japão e do Leste Asiático, especialmente as da Coréia e de Taiwan. O terceiro capítulo examina as mudanças no cenário internacional associadas à emergência da Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC) e ao ressurgimento da China como grande player internacional, que colocam desafios, mas também sinalizam novas oportunidades para países atrás das fronteiras tecnológica e econômica que querem fazer o catching up.<br>The present dissertation, which approaches development as a catching up issue, analyzes the critical role of technological change and innovations for the developing countries willing to narrow or close their gap with the most advanced economies. In this study, catching up is defined as a process in which a developing country narrows its technological gap in some key sectors, using the leading countries as a model but also innovating, with significant increases in productivity, growth rates and income, which results in a narrowing of its economic gap. The dissertation´s main arguments are that technological change and innovations have become not only a prerequisite to catch up in broad sense, but the very essence of catch up today, which increasingly relies on the ability of countries behind the technological frontiers to build up scientific and technological capabilities to absorb new technologies and innovate locally. The dissertation is organized in an introduction, three chapters and concluding remarks. The first and more conceptual chapter revisits theoretical and empirical contributions grounded in the catching-up approach. Although focusing on technological aspects, the chapter also calls attention to other critical elements to catch up, such as institutions, state intervention and finance. The second chapter discusses the catching-up experiences of Japan and East Asian, especially those of Korea and Taiwan. The third chapter analyses changing conditions in the international scenario associated with the emergence of the WTO and the resurgence of China as major international player, which put challenges but also open new opportunities behind the technological and economic frontier.<br>Tese (doutorado) - Instituto de Economia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Políticas Públicas, Estratégias e Desenvolvimento, 2014.<br>Bibliografia: p. 156-166.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis appraises certain key processes – albeit rather limited in number and scope – widely assumed to be associated with assessing the role of technological capability building in developing country (DC) firms. The latter are affected by their DC status on both the demand side (e.g. by rapid growth of the economy via consumption and trade) and the supply side (of technological catch-up etc.). Such broad considerations set the scene for our specific study. In this thesis, the component of technological capabilities that we highlight by studying local integrated product providers is the capability for systemic product development. We argue that the organisational system of industrial firms in DCs plays a fundamental role in their technological learning performance. Here, the developmental context is stressed because we suggest that the knowledge about how to organise effective learning, termed 'social technology', is at least as scarce as the 'physical technology' in such contexts, compared with those prevailing in the developed countries. Therefore, when DC firms shift into a new domain, the organisational systems that they rely on often have to be created rather than simply selected. This may be because, as first-movers in their circumstances, even when they are informed by external sources, they have very little practical experience of carrying out similar actions successfully within their own contexts. Therefore, studying organisational building in their early phase could prove critical for understanding their capability building processes. Empirical studies of China‘s car-making and telecom-equipment sectors over the past three decades are taken to support theoretical exploration in this thesis. Some scholars (e.g. Bell and Pavitt, 1992) point out that, in DCs, the growth of production capacity does not automatically lead to the building of technological capability. The experiences of China‘s car-making and telecomequipment sectors are exactly in line with this point of view. From the mid 1980s, the Chinese government implemented a 'trading market for technology (TMFT)' policy, encouraging its backbone SOEs (State Owned Enterprises) to establish productive joint ventures (JVs) with MNCs (Multinational Corporations). By doing so, policy-makers expected backbone SOEs to undergo a bottom-up capability building trajectory via learning closely from their JV partners. We term these SOEs and their JVs the 'Group-A firms' in our research. Contrary to the expectations of policy-makers, Group-A firms were locked into the manufacturing segment even after twenty years of TMFT practices, and seldom had new systemic products developed indigenously, prior to 2005 at least. On the contrary, the indigenous advance of technological capability building has actually been led by some new entrants. Their development has been independent of the advocacy of TMFT. They relied on in-house developed products from the very beginning after entering the corresponding industries, and succeeded in building sustainable competitiveness. We term them the 'Group-B firms'. By comparing these Group-A and Group-B firms, we argue that there are distinctive differences in organisational learning systems between them. Four components are developed of the concept of organisational learning systems, i.e. the strategic intent, the authority over strategic resource allocation, the pattern of organisational mobilisation and learning integration, and the facilities and institutions for knowledge accumulation. For the latter three components, we succeed in generating a clear contrast between these two groups of firms. We undertake a thorough comparison of authority over strategic resource allocation by studying the constitution of their top committees. As for the patterns of learning mobilisation and organisational integration, we find distinct differences in the scope of knowledge communication of front-line engineers, and relevant institutional arrangements to mobilise, integrate and direct the content of communication. Regarding the facilities for knowledge accumulation and application, the study of their knowledge database building engenders a clear contrast, as well as the institutional arrangements to regulate and promote relevant activities within their organisations. We also discover significant connections between the organisational systems of Group-B firms and their processes of knowledge search, generation and accumulation. Three important mechanisms of new knowledge creation in Group-B firms are examined, namely learning through recruitment, learning through cooperative projects and learning through interaction with customers. Our empirical study reveals that the authority stressing the investment in new product and technology development, the cross-boundary inter-departmental platform of knowledge conversion, the comprehensive knowledge-accumulating facilities, and the institutions backing these components play fundamental roles in shaping these learning mechanisms. Therefore, the organisational differences of these two groups of firms are connected with the differences of these two subsets of firms‘ technological learning performances. Besides, we discuss the social roots of their organisational systems by historically revisiting China‘s industrial system. By doing so, for the research community that focuses on technological learning in DCs, this thesis advocates a shift of research from stressing assimilative processes of firms to giving more emphasis to organisational changes as a centrepiece of studies.

Full textAbstract:
Despite recent drops in rates, juvenile incarceration remains a serious issue in the United States (Hockenberry, 2013; Mendel, 2011). One shared part of the incarceration experience across different systems and facility types is the obligation for juvenile offenders to receive correctional education. Ample research demonstrates that increased academic achievement, attending community school, and being employed are connected to better community outcomes and desistance, yet little is known about how school experiences in the facility influences these outcomes. Applying life-course theory of the development of crime (Sampson & Laub, 1997, 2005), the present study investigates whether correctional education serves as a turning point to influence a number of community adjustment outcomes in serious juvenile offenders. Specifically, it tested how subjective (teacher bonding and school orientation) and objective (grades, time spent in the facility school) parts of the school experience during the facility stay were related to transitioning to community schools (attendance), and/or work (gainful activity and employment), self-reported delinquency, and staying in the community at 6 and 12 months after release for a sample of 519 male and 50 female serious juvenile offenders. Results showed
that across juvenile and adult facilities, improved attachment to the facility school while incarcerated predicted increased involvement in gainful activity and decreases in self-reported delinquency up to 12 months after release. This positive effect was greatest for younger offenders who returned to school, even when accounting for the number of previous facility stays and prior community school experiences. Conversely, older offenders who returned to gainful employment showed less positive adjustment. In contrast to other studies, grades received while incarcerated were not a significant predictor of community adjustment. Overall, the results repeatedly show behavioral differences based on individual history and experiences during incarceration across different types of facilities, strongly supporting a research agenda that treats incarceration as more than a binary variable. The present results add to the corpus of evidence that the perspective of the incarcerated juveniles matter and suggest that the school experience while incarcerated can serve as an important turning point, indicating resources should be directed towards enhancing juveniles’ school orientation and relationships with teachers.

Il presente lavoro descrive lo sviluppo di procedure di misura per la valutazione delle
proprietà energetiche e di durabilità di rivestimenti cool colorati sviluppati nell’ambito del
progetto EU COOL-Coverings finanziato all’interno del FP7. I materiali cool sono
caratterizzati da un comportamento selettivo con elevata assorbanza nel visibile (colorati)
ed elevata riflettanza nel NIR (cool). L’attività è stata focalizzata su tre tipologie di materiali
per le coperture edili: piastrelle ceramiche e pitture per facciate e membrane bituminose per
tetti. In una prima fase sono state analizzate, mediante spettrofotometro, le proprietà
radiative dei nuovi prodotti. Quindi, per quantificarne l’impatto su edifici reali, è stato
definito un protocollo di prova nel quale rivestimenti standard e cool vengono applicati su
dimostratori in scala calibrati e diversi parametri termici continuamente monitorati nel
lungo termine. Infine, grazie ad un modello numerico validato sulla base dei dati
sperimentali, è stato stimato il risparmio energetico per diverse tipologie di edificio e condizioni climatiche. Uno dei principali limiti dei materiali cool è rappresentato
dall’invecchiamento naturale che causa una riduzione progressiva delle proprietà radiative
nel tempo. Per la determinazione della durabilità, gli attuali standard prevedono un periodo
di tre anni che tuttavia non è compatibile con il mondo dell’industria. Inoltre le attuali
procedure accelerate non sono applicabili in quanto non prendono in considerazione il
fenomeno del soiling che ha un impatto rilevante nella riduzione di riflettanza. È stato
quindi condotto uno studio sui meccanismi di invecchiamento naturale al fine di
identificarne le principali cause e di quantificarne l’effetto in termini di riflettanza. Infine, è
stato analizzato un metodo accelerato, recentemente proposto dal LBNL, la cui validità per
i nuovi prodotti è stata verificata confrontandone i risultati con quelli ottenuti in per
esposizione naturale.<br>The objective of the present work is to define test procedures for the evaluation of energy
and durability performances of innovative cool coloured products developed within
COOL-Coverings project, co-funded by EU commission under FP7. These materials are
spectrally selective (absorbing in the visible and reflecting in the NIR) thus combining aesthetics
(colour) and cooling capabilities. Three products have been addressed: ceramic tiles
and paints for façades and bituminous roof membranes. Radiative properties have been initially
analysed with a spectrophotometer. To understand the impact of such technologies
on buildings, a testing protocol has been defined in which cool and standard materials are
applied to calibrated mock-ups and different thermal parameters are continuously monitored.
Cooling energy savings have been finally estimated for different climates and applications
using numerical building models validated by the experimental data collected in the
demo campaign. Besides energy performances, an important issue for cool materials is represented by natural ageing that can determine a progressive reduction of radiative properties
over the time. Current standards define a period of 3 years for the evaluation of ageing
resistance. Such a duration is not compatible with industrial needs, while existing accelerated
standards are not adequate, neglecting the soiling effect that has instead a large impact
on cool performances. Part of the research was therefore dedicated to investigate ageing
mechanisms identifying the main factors and quantifying the loss of reflectance on standard
and cool materials. Finally, an accelerated ageing method recently proposed by the LBNL
to simulate 3 year ageing in few days of lab test has been analysed. The applicability of this
procedure, designed for roof and US climate, has been verified also for new products and
Mediterranean climate demonstrating a correlation degree with natural testing higher than
current predictive models.

Les startups innovantes orientées technologies mènent de nombreusesexpérimentations pour recueillir suffisamment de preuves de valeur, et réduire ainsiles incertitudes avant le lancement de leurs produits et services sur le marché. Bienque les moyens des startups soient limités, ces expérimentations sont souventaléatoires, itératives et nécessitent un investissement important en termes de tempset de ressources. Des solutions doivent ainsi leur être apportées afin de les aider àmieux planifier la maturation de leur technologie et à mieux identifier les opportunitéssur le marché. C’est dans ce contexte que s’inscrit la présente recherche.Une revue de la littérature est d’abord menée dans les domaines de l'ingénierie de laconception ainsi que du management de la technologie et de l'innovation. Cetteanalyse démontre que les méthodes et outils existants ne permettent pas d’établir desfeuilles de route précises et quantitatives pour mener des expérimentationspertinentes. Une enquête est ensuite réalisée sur les pratiques de 60 startupsinnovantes dans le contexte de la Ville de Paris. Cette recherche révèle que malgrél’utilisation des méthodes d’innovation telles que Lean Startup et BMC (BusinessModel Canvas), les startups n’ont aucun outil pratique pour spécifier et planifier leursexpérimentations, ou pour allouer efficacement leurs ressources.Par conséquent, cette recherche apporte trois contributions. D'abord, l'outil BMC estcombiné avec la quantification des poches de valeur (opportunités) et une séried’indicateurs quantitatifs permettant d’assurer la pertinente de l'offre de valeur.Ensuite, une méthodologie dénommée DUE (Design by Usage-based Experimentation)est proposée afin d’examiner l'ensemble des marchés potentiels et d’identifier lesprincipales propriétés technologiques à améliorer grâce à l’expérimentation. Uneméthodologie quantitative nommée RITHM (Roadmapping Investments in TecHnologyand Market) est par la suite proposée pour optimiser les expérimentations pourqu’elles puissent aboutir à la maturation d'une technologie pour atteindre les marchésles plus profitables. La pertinence de ces méthodologies est évaluée en les appliquantà une startup orientée technologies et par la validation d’experts. Enfin, cette rechercheconclue qu'il est possible d’améliorer la spécification des feuilles de routed’expérimentations dans une startup technologique et de mieux orienter sesinvestissements vers des stratégies R&D plus efficaces et économiques.Cette recherche peut contribuer à soutenir de manière significative la prise de décisionde différents acteurs, comme par exemple, les entrepreneurs, qui doivent justifier desdépenses de R&D dans des dossiers de levée de fonds, ou des investisseurs publicset privés qui cherchent à minimiser les risques d'investissement dans destechnologies innovantes, ou enfin des technology scouts<br>Technology-oriented innovative startups must conduct extensive experiments to gather sufficient proofs of value, so that they may reduce uncertainties before the launch of their products and services on the market. Despite their limited resources, the experiments conducted by startups are often random, loop-based and consequently time and resource consuming. Hence, startups need solutions to help them better planning their technology maturation and identifying market opportunities. It is in the context that the current research is carried out.First, a literature review is conducted in the fields of engineering design, technology management and innovation management. This review suggests that the existing methods and tools fail to provide accurate and quantitative roadmaps to conduct relevant experiments. Second, this research surveys the design and testing practices of 60 innovative startups in the context of the City of Paris. This investigation reveals that despite the use of popular innovation methods such as Business Model Canvas (BMC) and Lean Startup, startups have no practical tools for specifying and planning experiments, nor for efficiently using their resources.Therefore, this research makes the following three contributions. First, the BMC tool is combined with quantified value buckets (opportunities) and innovativeness indicators in order to make sure that the value offer is effective and significant. Second, a Design by Usage-based Experimentation (DUE) methodology is proposed to help screening the whole set of potential markets and to identify the main technology properties that need to be improved through experiments. Third, a quantitative methodology called RITHM (Roadmapping Investments in TecHnology and Market) is proposed to optimize the set of experiments, so that they result in the maturation of a technology to reach the most profitable markets. The relevance of the proposed methodologies is assessed through their application to technology-oriented innovative startups and also through expert validation. Finally, this research concludes that it is possible, with more effective and economical R&D strategies, to better define experiment roadmaps and better steer technological startup investment.This research may significantly support the decision-making process of various actors: entrepreneurs, who need to justify R&D expenses in fund-raising applications; public and private investors, who constantly tend to minimize investment risks in innovative technologies; or technology scouts

Mestrado em Gestão e Estratégia Industrial<br>Este estudo procura perceber o impacto de alguns factores, identificados na literatura, no sucesso/insucesso de start-ups criadas entre 1990 e 1995. A opção por comparar empresas é realizada de modo a perceber o efeito diferenciador dos factores. Existem vários estudos sobre factores que influenciam o sucesso das empresas, no entanto não é muito comum comparar empresas. De modo a identificar o efeito de cada um nas start-ups, foram realizadas entrevistas com colaboradores e CEO. A informação obtida foi utilizada para construir estudos de caso.
Concluiu-se que os vários factores têm influência no sucesso das empresas e estão interligados. Um factor pode influenciar outro, tornando-o ainda mais relevante ou podendo fazer com que isoladamente não seja tão relevante.<br>This study focuses on understanding the impact of some factors, identified in the literature, on success/failure of start-ups created between 1990 and 1995. Start-up comparison was chosen in order to provide understanding of the distinctive influence of the factors in each situation. There are several studies on factors that influence business success, however it is not common to compare businesses. In order to identify the effect of each factor on the start-ups, some interviews with employees and CEO were held. The gathered information was then used to create case studies.
It was concluded that all factors influence business success and are interconnected. One factor may influence other, making it even more relevant or not so relevant if isolated.

The first chapter puts the strategies of industrialization of the Asian countries in the general prospect of technological catching up, by insisting on the cases of Japan and Korea in particular, which realize a mix of a international openness and an important state interventionism. The second chapter presents the current situation and the recent evolution of the Vietnamese economy. It discusses Vietnam’s insertion in the network ofEast Asian division of labour by studying the change in its foreign trade structure. The weaknesses of the Vietnamese industrial policy and its unfavourable position in the process of catching up are also controversial. The third chapter studies the factors of competitiveness of the Vietnamese economy from an examination of the traditional indicators of measure of the competitiveness and a survey about Vietnamese companies. The fourth chapter estimates the impact of the foreign direct investment (FDI)on the Vietnamese economy by using the available statistics and the results of a survey on companies having welcomed the FDI. Finally the last chapter discusses the possibility of implementation of analternative strategy of catching up, which would base on a participation in an integrated model of production, not modular and would end in a better division of the skills and the tasks with one orseveral countries at higher technological level

Full textAbstract:
The monograph is devoted to the organization of innovative technological projects in regional innovation systems with a catch-up type of economy. The paper shows that the organization of innovative technological projects in regional innovation systems with a catch-up type of economy is based on the development of cooperation between subjects of innovation activity. The development of technological entrepreneurship is impossible without a systematic and systematic process of regionalization of the ecosystem of innovative business in the country. The basis for the development of an ecosystem of innovative entrepreneurship in a catch-up economy is substantiated. It is shown that the mechanism for implementing innovative processes in innovative projects can be a Regional Incubation and acceleration Center and a multifunctional state Unified Regional investment fund. It is intended for researchers, graduate students, students specializing in the field of Innovation Management, as well as for managers and responsible persons of organizations responsible for the development of regional innovation systems and the development of innovative technological projects.

Abstract This chapter examines two synthetic fiber plants: one in Guben, East Germany, and one in Gorzów, Poland. Both plants were subject to central planning, exhibited rapid output growth, and relied mainly on Western technology imports to keep pace with international standards. Over the course of the transformation period, both plants were forced to significantly reduce their workforce and product range but managed to survive. Considerable similarities can be observed in the development of the two plants. The chapter explores the following three questions: What kind of modernization barriers did both plants encounter? Were there specific differences between the two synthetic fiber plants? In which ways did these conditions influence the further development path of both plants in the transformation period? Particular attention is given to investments, technology, workforce, and innovation.

Full textAbstract:
Through this paper we present a framework aimed into helping educators to incorporate the Artificial Intelligence in their classes, particularly focused in Engineering Product Development. As students become more acquainted with the possibilities of Artificial Intelligence, it brings challenges in the way they learn, research and analyze the information supplied by the A.I. systems. This NaiVE framework puts emphasis in the students' use of their technical expertise and critical thinking by explicitly requesting to follow a set of steps that will guide them through obtaining the best out of the Artificial Intelligence outputs. The framework was validated with three different case studies including students from different engineering majors, seniorities and courses carrying out a 5-week project with an industrial partner: the first one being "Dynamical Design" for mechanical engineers in their sophomore year, who used generative design with Autodesk Fusion360 to propose new solutions for an All-Terrain Vehicle; the second one, "Mechatronic Design", was a course for Mechatronic Engineers in their junior year, who had to come up with an innovative proposal for warehouse logistics and provide a Product Requirements Document (PRD), some Product Design Specifications (PDS), and a prototype of their solution (for this, they were instructed in the correct use of ChatGPT and Teachable Machine); the third course, named "Technological Entrepreneurship", was an optative course for senior year undergraduate students of the robotic, mechatronic, mechanic, computer science, chemical, biotechnology, nanotechnology and data science majors working together with senior marketing students of a course in Analytics and Advanced Market Intelligence: the project consisted in developing a technological solution to raise brand awareness for a Civil Association amongst younger generations, and the use of Mid journey was the AI tool used to adapt the proposal to the aesthethics of the training partner and generate eye-catching results.

Full textAbstract:
Rampant environmental devastation and social inequities are undeniable impacts of our current global economic system, calling into question the continuation of “business-as- usual”. Regenerative business is an emergent concept that could deliver the urgent transformation required by changing the current paradigm of “doing less bad” to maximizing positive impact for the planet and future generations to continue to thrive. Industry is still catching-up with “conventional sustainability” business practices and there are very few companies exploring regenerative business models. Equally, few definitions of regenerative business exist in the academic literature. There is a need to build new theory on regeneration in the business context. This paper proposes a Framework for Regenerative Business. It reviews and consolidates existing theory on regenerative approaches and principles, and adopts a qualitative case-studies methodology to identify current business practices. Semi-structured interviews conducted with fourteen companies across multiple industries inform the common themes and emergent principles central to the development of the Framework for Regenerative Business. We contribute to advancing theory in the nascent field of regenerative business by providing a foundation from which to develop regenerative business models. Central to the Framework for Regenerative Business is empathetic leadership, that employs six core principles including empowered stakeholder relationships, connection to context and place, circular flows, trust and transparency, innovation and adaptability to ecosystems, and building inner and outer capacity for systems resilience. The interplay of the principles is guided by a meta-purpose, which is cascaded through the value proposition, seeking to create systemic positive impact.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents the current understanding of the role of public R&D in economic growth and the science–industry links from middle-income economies like Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). In the second part, we present the conventional view on science–industry links which see these linkages primarily in terms of a one-way transfer of knowledge or its commercialisation from R&D to the business enterprise sector. Based on the comparative data, which also includes BiH, we show an alternative approach and argue about its relevance in the context of BiH. Our conclusion is that science–industry links (SIL) should support technology upgrading and not (or not only) R&D based growth. In the next section, we present the current understanding of the role of public R&D in economic growth. Section two explores the role of public R&D in the catching up context, while section 3 explores specifically the role of science-industry links in catching up context. Section 4 proposes a ‘Triple Helix’ approach to science - industry linkages for catching up economies. We illustrate its features within the data for the central and east European economies. Finally, section 5 concludes with implications for BiH

Full textAbstract:
Perinatal mental health (PNMH) is an ongoing concern for women and families, as well as for health and social care services. It is estimated that 10-20% of women will experience mental health issues and up to 10% of fathers may also experience difficulties with their mental health. This issue was recently highlighted by national media. Our previous stakeholder consultation work identified service gaps for women in the mild-moderate category of PNMH. This project aimed to explore this identified gap further by bringing together a diverse group of partners, including women/families, practitioners and researchers to co-develop a collaborative action-research agenda. Project design and delivery was developed in collaboration with an expert with lived experience to ensure all elements were relevant and relatable. It is crucial to involve all stakeholders, including those with lived experience and practitioners, in discussions regarding successful interventions for perinatal mental health. This approach ensures that families receive better outcomes in a sustainable and scalable manner.

Full textAbstract:
This case study engages with the journey of Dhwani Rural Information Systems, a social enterprise that traces its earliest origins back to 2012. Founded by the duo of Sunandan Madan and Swapnil Aggarwal – engineers by training who met while studying for a postgraduate course at the Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA) – Dhwani since its inception has been trying to help a range of social sector organizations effectively integrate technology without disrupting the core ways in which these organizations work. Notably, it has been amongst one of the early enterprises in the sector which has taken efforts to understand in-depth the technology-related “pain points” common across organizations, and to bring a degree of standardisation to their solutions. The case builds an appreciation towards the fact that at the core of a successful technology-centric social enterprise, which can offer relevant and affordable digital products and services to the sector, lies building a composite culture that can straddle both the developmental and technological landscapes. Such a culture seeks to combine engineering and consulting skills in equal measure, and seeks to solve problems mindful of the particularities of the developmental sector, while also retaining a service orientation. In particular, the case looks to draw attention to the ideas of hybridity and elasticity that are integral to such a culture and how these have to be sustained against continuous pressures of talent sourcing, compensation, retention, and learning and development. In a short period of time, Dhwani has become a mature set-up with a clear sector-agnostic product and service value proposition to the sector, with a team strength of over 120 people and over 50 projects, and a variety of organizations, including nonprofits, philanthropies, CSR divisions and governments as clients. Therefore, the experiences of the founders and members of the team offer valuable lessons for other like-minded practitioners. At the same time, to researchers in the field of social enterprise the case may provide a more granular view of important aspects of culture-building in emerging social enterprises. The fact that such enterprises have to draw from a talent pool in constant competition with their private sector counterparts imparts added force to the above considerations.

Full textAbstract:
The HIP framework aims to guide higher education (HE) teachers and researchers to reconsider and reflect on how to rethink HE pedagogy in new and different ways. It builds on insights from the report Hacking Innovative Pedagogy: Innovation and Digitisation to Rewild Higher Education. A Commented Atlas (Beskorsa, et al., 2023) and incorporates the spirit of rewilding and hacking pedagogies to inspire new professional communities focused on innovating digital education. The framework considers and guides the development of teachers’ digital pedagogy competences through an inclusive bottom-up approach that gives space for individual teacher’s agency while also ensuring a collective teaching culture. The framework emphasizes how pedagogical approaches can address the different needs that HE teachers and student communities have that reflect disciplines cultures and/or the diversity of learners. Only a framework mindful of heterogeneity will be able to address questions of justice and fair access to education. Likewise, in the spirit of rewilding, the framework should not be considered a static “one size fits all” solution. We aim for an organic and dynamic framework that may be used to pause and reflect to then turn back to one’s own teaching community to consider (learn from, listen to and respond to the teaching and learning of different communities). Therefore we plan that this framework will be a living document throughout the HIP-project’s lifetime.

Full textAbstract:
The paper in question outlines the possibilities of using modern teaching methods and tools in the process of teaching English to students who major in English Philology. The rapid changes which this process is undergoing are predetermined by the constant development and new demands which it has to meet. In view of Ukrainian education this process is shaped not only by the factors mentioned but as well by the fact that our country is still facing post-pandemic consequences and now those of war conflict when students are deprived of the possibility of gaining offline education in physical classrooms and many other essential educational items. The paper examines the effectiveness of various approaches and tools in promoting language acquisition and proficiency, as well as their impact on students’ engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes during the challenges posed by war and pandemic. The paper is an overview of the latest tools available for the implementation in the process of teaching English including online resources and activities, as well as the use of different platforms, applications, virtual reality, gamification and artificial intelligence. It is aimed at highlighting the advantages and drawbacks of these approaches which may be faced both by educators and students and providing examples of the successful implementations of these approaches in different educational environments. It may be summed up that while the implementation of the teaching methods and tools in question can boost and enhance the quality and accessibility of language education but it is next to impossible to reach successful learning outcomes without careful planning, training, and evaluation which ensure its effectiveness and sustainability.

Full textAbstract:
As Nordic countries look to tourism for regional development, especially in rural areas, there is a growing need to ensure that the benefits of tourism are broadly shared—and its social consequences better understood. This publication is the second in a two-part series on Socially Sustainable Rural Tourism, commissioned by the Nordic Thematic Group for Green, Innovative and Resilient Regions. The first report established a conceptual and policy-based understanding of social sustainability in tourism. This follow-up turns to practice, presenting eight case studies from across the Nordic Region.

This brief underscores the economic and environmental importance of forests and looks at ways Asia and the Pacific can develop innovative payments for ecosystem services (PES) that preserve its forests and underpin sustainable development. The brief explains the region is home to 20% of the world’s forests, which are increasingly under threat as the push for development clashes with the need for ecosystem protection. Urging an integrated approach, it sets out how governments can set up PES enabling environments, delves into financing challenges, and shows how G20 and G7 countries can support project funding to help take forest finance mainstream.

Full textAbstract:
The research provides a review of applying the virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology to education. There are analysed VR and AR tools applied to the course “Development of VR and AR software” for STEM teachers and specified efficiency of mutual application of the environment Unity to visual design, the programming environment (e.g. Visual Studio) and the VR and AR platforms (e.g. Vuforia). JavaScript language and the A-Frame, AR.js, Three.js, ARToolKit and 8th Wall libraries are selected as programming tools. The designed course includes the following modules: development of VR tools (VR and Game Engines; physical interactions and camera; 3D interface and positioning; 3D user interaction; VR navigation and introduction) and development of AR tools (set up AR tools in Unity 3D; development of a project for a photograph; development of training materials with Vuforia; development for promising devices). The course lasts 16 weeks and contains the task content and patterns of performance. It is ascertained that the course enhances development of competences of designing and using innovative learning tools. There are provided the survey of the course participants concerning their expectations and the course results. Reduced amounts of independent work, increased classroom hours, detailed methodological recommendations and increased number of practical problems associated with STEM subjects are mentioned as the course potentials to be implemented.

Full textAbstract:
Brief Description Innovative methods need to be integrated into public health thinking to accelerate change, a belief that led to the creation of our public health innovation cohorts. 11 participants were taught new ways of approaching problems and how to test with pilots. Thematic and network analysis of interviews, along with a 2-year follow-up, revealed an enduring shift in approach to problem-solving within their work. Background Public health tends to be siloed and reactive in solving new and existing problems. Innovation and the development of novel approaches requires cross-sectoral collaboration and thinking. The intentional development of new ideas and actionable programs is key to responding to emerging challenges. Immersive Innovation Labs is a guided approach to innovation focused on multidisciplinary collaboration and the creation of actionable solutions. Methods 11 public health professionals and 12 student coaches participated in a 10-day Public Health Innovation Summit. Collaborative learning sessions, research, and guided innovation sessions were accompanied by interviews to gauge participant’s knowledge about and attitudes toward developing and implementing innovative solutions within the public health field. Interviews were analyzed for common themes using AI and influential concepts were identified using network analysis software. Follow-up interviews were conducted with participants and coaches 2 years later to determine the impact that the innovation training had on their careers and approach to problem-solving. Results Participants of the summit developed 11 pilot programs. 28 interviews and a post-summit feedback session revealed a shift in topical focus by betweenness centrality. Prior to the summit, participants focused on public health programming and actions (top 43% most influential nodes). After completing the innovation summit, participants shifted focus away from public health (top 6% most influential nodes) to the impact these techniques would have in their workplace, the creative approaches to problem-solving, and the new connections made during the summit. Conclusion Immersive Innovative Labs is an effective methodology for reframing the approach public health professionals have to solve new and existing problems. Guided coaching and cross-sectoral collaboration lead to innovation, producing new approaches and ideas. This technique has been effective in shaping mindsets beyond the session and has meaningfully impacted the careers of participants.

Full textAbstract:
The Nordic countries share many cross-sectoral targets at the national level to meet ambitious environmental, social, sustainable, and innovative development goals and targets. However, in the context of spatial planning, central governments in the Nordic countries often have limited ability to influence local and regional level priorities. As the Nordic region seeks a greener, more competitive, and socially sustainable future, understanding the diversity of ongoing national interventions and mechanisms in local and regional land use and spatial planning is needed. The focus on Nordic national support initiatives is therefore to understand both the regulative and national support aspects (top-down) and the actual needs (bottom-up) to achieve national cross-sectoral targets as these relate to green and inclusive urban development. This policy brief presents a mapping of the relevant initiatives across the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden).

Full textAbstract:
Climate change is changing the frequency and intensity of Extreme Weather Events (EWEs), particularly in poor developing countries, and the international community is increasingly suggesting the design of adaptation funds to resolve this situation. Measures of vulnerability and exposure to EWEs are a critical instrument in guaranteeing a transparent, efficient and equitable allocation process in these funds. Latin American countries, which contribute little to climate change but are hard-hit by EWEs, urgently need new indicators to back up their claims for financial and technical assistance. Using DesInventar data, the paper develops an innovative Disaster Exposure Index (DEI) that encompasses many disasters' impacts. DEI calculations indicate an unexpected scenario where some regions usually considered resilient are found to be exposed. The results call for further development of regional indicators to facilitate the international, national and sub- national allocation of adaptation funds.
