Full textSince the 1980s, the digital revolution has been both a negative and positive force. Within a few weeks of the Covid-19 outbreak, lockdown accelerated the adoption of digital solutions at an unprecedented pace, creating unforeseen opportunities for scaling up alternative approaches to social and economic life. But it also brought digital risks and threats that placed new demands on policymakers. This article assembles evidence from different areas of social science expertise about the impacts of Covid-19 in digitised societies and policy responses. The authors show how the pandemic supported changes in data collection techniques and dissemination practices for official statistics, and how seemingly insuperable obstacles to the implementation of e-health treatments were largely overcome. They demonstrate how the ethics of artificial intelligence became a primary concern for government legislation at national and international levels, and how the features enabling smart cities to act as drivers of productivity did not necessarily give them an advantage during the pandemic. At the micro-level, families are shown to have become ‘digital by default’, as children were exposed to online risks and opportunities. Globally, the spread of the pandemic provided a fertile ground for cybercrime, while digital disinformation and influencing risked becoming normalised and domesticated.

Full textThis paper examines digital transformation within the insurance industry which are in a period of change. this means that analogous processes that previously have had a large human influence will be wholly or partly automated. Companies working with developing new digital innovations within the insurance industry and using digital tools are referred as “InsurTech´s”. These companies form a link between technology and traditional insurance companies. The aim of the study is to investigate and analyze the insurance industry with a focus on the significance of digitization of the core processes. This has been done through a background-informing literature study together with qualitative interviews of selected persons who hold different positions in the industry.The study shows what effects the digital transformation has on staffing, processes, customer experiences and costs. At the same time, internal structures and the type of leadership have a potential impact on the results of digitization. The scope of the study is limited to the Swedish market and the digitization within Swedish insurance companies. This is by describing the design of the claims settlement process from an analogue to a digital perspective, which has changed the customer's perception of insurance and insurance companies.

As tecnologias digitais de fabricação por adição ou subtração têm em si um potencial ainda inexplorado pela indústria joalheira. Por isso, essa dissertação tem como objetivo avaliar as vantagens técnicas e comerciais que podem incentivar a transformação no seu uso pela indústria de joias, inclusive apontando exemplos de iniciativas internacionais e nacionais, estas últimas centradas no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, assinalando assim as razões de seus sucessos e falhas. Através de uma pesquisa bibliográfica se busca determinar as bases históricas e especificações técnicas dos principais processos de produção tradicionais (técnicas manuais tais como o repuxo, a cinzelagem, a modelagem e fundição por cera perdida, entre outras) e digitais (impressão 3D, escaneamento 3D e modelagem digital), para, nesse contexto, seguir-se à experimentação com as tecnologias mais novas, como forma de se buscar a comprovação da existência do potencial técnico e comercial destas tecnologias para o setor joalheiro fluminense que justifiquem essa inovação.
The digital manufacturing technologies by addition or subtraction of material holds an unexplored potential for the jewellery industry. Therefore, this dissertation aims to assess the technical and commercial advantages that can encourage the transformation of its use by the jewellery industry, pointing out examples of international and national enterprises, the latest centered in the Brazilian State of Rio de Janeiro, thus signalizing the reasons of their successes and failures. Through a literature research this work pursuits the historical foundations and the technical specifications of the traditional manual techniques (such as repoussé, chasing, lost wax casting, among others) and digital manufacturing processes (3D printing, 3D scanning and 3D modelling), for, in this context, experimenting with the newest technologies, as a way to seek evidence of its technical and commercial potential for the jewellery industry in Rio de Janeiro that justifies the innovation.

Full textThe Fourth Industrial Revolution has provided new opportunities to tackle problems in health, education, transport and many other sectors. In the financial sector, new financial technology (FinTech) is providing new ways of tackling the problem of financial exclusion. The uptake of cell phones has enabled financial service providers (FSPs) to expand into areas where the most vulnerable have hitherto been outside the reach of the banking agency model. This has ultimately allowed previously financially excluded individuals to have access to bank accounts. Through SMACT (Social Media, Mobile, Analytics, Cloud and the Internet of Things) technologies, FSPs are able to collect new types of data such as call detail record data and mobile app data which have been leveraged globally to enable the emergence of M-Pesa in Kenya, the WeChat payments module in China and KakaoBank, South Korea’s first online-only bank. The common thread in these innovations is that these are telecommunications company-led business models that have encroached into the area of finance. Such digital disruption has happened in South Africa but little is understood about how inclusive digital financial services are in the South African context. Moreover, what are the barriers to further financial inclusion, given that South Africa has significantly high bank account uptake rates? What role can the Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies have in breaking those barriers and reaching the lower-income population that has largely been mis-sold financial products that were created for the middle to upper-income population? This study sought to investigate how the diffusion of SMACT technology has contributed to financial inclusion in the South African financial services sector. The study made use of a mixed methods approach to answer this research question. Finscope data from 2012 to 2015 was used as the data source for the quantitative section and key informant interviews as the source of data for the qualitative section. The study found that roughly 80% of adults in South Africa are financially included through formal banks. Despite the near 100% uptake rates of cell phones across all income groups, proximity to an ATM or bank branch still significantly determined whether an individual accessed formal financial services. The study also found that ATM withdrawal, store withdrawal and internet banking were infrequently utilised by lower-income adults. In terms of internet banking and digital financial services in general, financial products, especially digital credit, do not appear to be well aligned with the needs of the lower-income consumer. The mismatch of financial products and the needs of lower-income consumers is further worsened by poor financial literacy levels in South Africa, especially among lower-income consumers. The study concludes that more needs to be done to increase economic inclusion, digital inclusion and financial inclusion for the lower-income population in South Africa. While consumer protection and transparency are well covered in the regulatory and legislative framework to which FSPs by and large adhere, a more inclusive and sustainable financial sector will only exist if product fit, affordability, financial literacy and convenience issues are addressed. This should happen in an enabling environment where ICT infrastructure benefits all, interoperability of digital financial services is reached and a regulatory framework more focused on financial inclusion is in place.

Full textThis research deals with the proposal of the incorporation of new information and communication technologies - NICTs - in higher education, is based on the improvement of teaching quality by simplifying complex tasks, reducing the distance and hence the time, thus improving work efficiency. At first glance, the contact of the actors with the NTICs in this process often reveals itself without the existence of an inclusive methodology because the action of these technologies by higher education institutions seems to result only on attempts to adapt to social demands and marketing in new contexts produced by the digital revolution, making this very misshapen inclusive process, and in turn, limiting the positive effect on the results. This paper discusses the process of incorporating technologies in higher education, seeking to evaluate the reconciliation of traditional methodologies and aspects of their current transformations, hoping to offer subsidies for understanding which are currently the challenges experienced in higher education and how the IES have sought to address them, outlining roughly the current profiles of its actors. To develop this work we chose to use the theories and methodologies of researches carried out by Manuel Castells (2013), Pierre Levy (2010), John B. Thompson (2014). These were accompanied by researches in the areas of philosophy education, especially Edgar Morin (2013) and Maurice Tardif (2011), supplemented by extensive bibliography with ancillary issues. The extensive bibliography that we used helped us to develop a critical reflection on the challenges that are present in high education, particularly in Brazil, and from that reflection, brought up proposals formulated by authors who are researching on the same line of this work, proposals which are healthy and able to respond to the main current challenges. The research's results before of the higher education challenges has been identified that the crisis experienced by the institutions have as factors: the transition between institutional and emerging models. Furthermore, technological training or specialization of education professionals have been occurring through fragmented and diffuse modules, which makes the application of computer-mediated communication decontextualized with learning object. Finally, it presents as a diagnostic to overcome these challenges, the need to define the teach model, based on education reforms that combine linear thought with complex thought, making possible the identification of the new profiles that the institution and teacher may to have in the society
Esta pesquisa trata da proposta da incorporação das novas tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação NTICs no ensino superior, tem por base a melhoria da qualidade pedagógica ao simplificar tarefas complexas, reduzir a distância e consequentemente o tempo, melhorando assim a eficiência do trabalho. A primeira vista, o contato dos atores com as NTICs nesse processo, revela-se muitas vezes sem a existência de uma metodologia inclusiva, pois a ação incorporadora dessas tecnologias pelas instituições de ensino superior parece decorrer apenas de tentativas para adaptar-se às exigências sociais e mercadológicas nos novos contextos produzidos pela revolução digital, tornando esse processo inclusivo muito disforme, e, por sua vez, limitando os efeitos positivos nos resultados. O presente trabalho pretende analisar os processos de incorporação das tecnologias no ensino superior, buscando avaliar a conciliação das metodologias tradicionais e os aspectos de suas transformações atuais, esperando oferecer subsídios para a compreensão de quais os desafios vivenciados atualmente no ensino superior e de que forma as IES têm buscado enfrentá-los, esboçando grosso modo, os perfis atuais de seus atores. Para o desenvolvimento deste trabalho optamos por utilizar como metodologia a pesquisa bibliográfica, aproveitando os estudos e pesquisas realizados por Manuel Castells (2013), Pierre Lévy (2010), John B. Thompson (2014), analisados conjuntamente com as pesquisas nas áreas da filosofia da educação, em especial Edgar Morin (2013) e Maurice Tardif (2011), complementados por ampla bibliografia com temas auxiliares. A extensa bibliografia de que fizemos uso nos auxiliou a desenvolver uma reflexão crítica sobre os desafios que hoje se apresentam ao ensino superior, particularmente no Brasil, e, a partir dessa reflexão, trazer à baila propostas formuladas por autores que estão pesquisando na mesma linha deste trabalho, propostas estas saudáveis e capazes de responder aos principais desafios vigentes. Os resultados da pesquisa diante dos desafios do ensino superior, identificaram que a crise vivenciada pelas instituições de ensino têm como fatores: a transição entre os modelos institucionais e emergentes. Além disso, a formação tecnológica ou especializações dos profissionais da educação ocorrem através de módulos fragmentados e difusos, o que torna a aplicação da comunicação mediada por computador descontextualizada com o objeto de aprendizagem. Por fim, apresenta como como diagnóstico para superar esses desafios, a necessidade de se definir o modelo de ensino, baseando-se nas reformas da educação que articulem o pensamento linear com o pensamento complexo, possibilitando com isso a identificação dos novos perfis que a instituição e o professor devem ocupar na sociedade

Full textLa tradición oral que definía la cultura humana fue transformada con la invención de la escritura y fundó la tradición escribal que, potenciada por la invención de la imprenta hace cinco siglos, dio origen a la concepción ilustrada de la educación que sigue rigiendo en nuestros días. Pero el advenimiento de los medios digitales y el mundo virtual causa una nueva crisis que empieza a subvertir la tradición escribal y el concepto de educación del que somos herederos. Se hacen imperativos un nuevo paradigma y una reconcepción de nuestros criterios en la educación. En este breve artículo, describimos el proyecto de innovación docente “Rizoma filosófico”, con el que se pretende reflexionar de manera práctica al mismo tiempo que teórica sobre esta crisis en un curso de Filosofía Contemporánea.

Full textDigital kompetens brukade vara ett förvirrande koncept fram till nyligen när vissa forskare utarbetade en omfattande definition av digital kompetens och formulerade en konceptuell ram i ett små och medelstora sammanhang. Ramverket var dock endast på en konceptuell nivå och krävdes att testas med empiriken i en kvalitativ eller kvantitativ studie. Genom ett abduktivt kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt undersökte denna forskning befintliga teorier om digital kompetens och formulerade en ny digital kompetensram inom svenskt tillverkningspolitiskt perspektiv. Vidare undersökte denna undersökning rollen som digital kompetens i internationaliseringsprocessen av sex svenska tillverkningsföretag, vilket är enastående i den akademiska litteraturen. Våra resultat tyder på att digital kompetens är ett utvecklande koncept som utvecklas gradvis med tekniska framsteg och kräver en kombination av tre integrerade komponenter: i) Digital teknik (grundläggande och avancerad digitalisering), ii) Automatisering av organisationsprocesser, iii) Personal som har de senaste digitala färdigheterna och är vederbörligen motiverade att använda dessa färdigheter. Den här forskningen bekräftar att svenska tillverkare små och medelstora företag efter att ha uppnått digital kompetens kan upprätthålla en konkurrensfördel på sina internationella marknader och framgångsrikt underlättar företagets internationaliseringsprocess.

Full textDen nuvarande situationen på energimarkanden är en utmaning för många stora franska energiaktörer. Huvudutmaningarna består idag av höga elpriser som går upp och ned på en volatil marknad, en övergång till förnyelsebara energikällor samt en nödvändig och omfattande digitalisering där särkslit kundrelationerna förändras och utvecklas. Nya aktörer från andra branscher etablerar sig på energimarknaden med nya typer av tjänster och detta innebär att befintliga aktörer måste utveckla nya affärsmodeller. Nya preferenser och beteenden hos kunderna ställer även det nya krav. För att klara denna energirevolution, har franska etablerade energibolag inget annat val än att transformera sig. De måste utvecklas teknologiskt, digitalt men också organisatorisk, strukturellt och kulturellt. Stora historiska energiaktörer behöver därför nya strategier för att förbli konkurrenskraftiga på sina marknader och inte förlora marknadsandelar. Stora franska energiaktörer som ENGIE, EUF och RTE har redan påbörjat detta arbete och nya strategier utvecklas för att möta de aktuella utmaningarna på energiområdet. Strategikonsultföretag som Weave finns där för att hjälpa energibranschens aktörer i denna omvandling. Weave har redan genomfört många uppdrag inom detta område och kan med sin breda kompentens och erfarenhet hjälpa dessa företag att utvecklas och förändras via en god översikt av nuvarande energimarknad och aktuella utmaningar i samhället i allmänhet. Weave kan bistå de stora franska energiaktörerna i framtagande av nya strategier inklusive genomförande. Genom långsiktigt arbete har Weave utvecklat sin expertis och är därför väl lämpade att leda sina kunder i energiomställningen och svara på de utmaningar som en utveckling och omvandling av kundernas värdekedjor innebär.

Full textWith the digital revolution, the scope of record labels’ activities have been reduced. Today, individuals can do a lot on their own, that record labels have traditionally done for their artists. The role they played is not considered as important in the career of an artist today, due to digitization. The aim of this essay is to examine and create insight on how record labels’ role looks like in a digitalized and serice-dominated music industry. To do this, three interviews have been carried out, whereof one interview included two respondents. The interviews were held with the record labels Universal Music, Amuse and an independent label in Stockholm. The results show that the activities that record labels perform are adjusted according to digital media. The results also show that all of the respondents claim that even though artists today can do everything on their own, it is easier to succeed with the help of a record label. The conclusion is that the record labels’ role is that they are partners with their artists, which means that they are with them, and not for them. The role record labels have in a digitalized and service-dominated music industry is that they offer knowledge, connections and capital to their artists. The record labels’ role has been weakened within the traditional activities marketing and distribution. Instead, they are regarded as existing as a support and complement within these activities. The record labels’ role has therefore become more important in finding, building and operating artists’ careers.

Full textOrganizational efficiency is the result of a myriad of micro decisions taken as close as possible from the place and time at which contextual interference emerges. The Toyota Production System, on the management level, and the boom of the Apple Corporation, on the level of the intuitive tools for personal productivity, demonstrate this evolution where thought and action are no more segregated. Proof is the path taken by the main actors of the digital revolution : the founders of Linux, Yahoo!, Wikipedia, Amazon.com, Google or Facebook. It did not begin from a classroom theory, but by a trial and error approach that never disconnected the mind from the act.This virtuous pragmatism is also found in Bavaria, Flanders, Scotland, Euskadi, Catalonia, Lombardy, Veneto ... Indeed, these regions have an autonomy - including and particularly at the cultural level - similar to that of the German Länder or the Swiss cantons. On the contrary, Jacobin France followed the opposite path: the eradication of regional and minority languages in which sensory contact with things remained in the sign systems.But today, the rise of complexity, even saturating the significant power of the concept itself, brings the conditions for the return of the sign

Resumo: O uso de displays interativos introduz novas possibilidades de participação e interação entre os componentes de uma equipe no processo projetual em arquitetura, em suas diversas fases. O presente estudo se concentra em duas questões. A primeira etapa da pesquisa consistiu em uma revisão da bibliografia sobre a importância do desenho no processo de projeto. Em seguida foi realizado um levantamento das tecnologias disponíveis que permitem produzir esboços manuais diretamente em formato digital. Dentre essas tecnologias, duas foram escolhidas para o desenvolvimento da parte experimental da pesquisa: a lousa interativa e a mesa digitalizadora opaca. A etapa experimental da pesquisa teve inicio com um estudo piloto para avaliar a potencialidade e a interação dos equipamentos com os alunos. Em seguida a metodologia sofreu alterações em função dos resultados preliminares e um novo experimento foi realizado no segundo semestre de 2008, nesse experimento pode-se obter resultados que auxiliaram a descrever benefícios e deficiências do uso de displays interativos no processo de projeto. Espera-se que a pesquisa propicie a inserção de meios digitais no ensino de projeto de arquitetura e reformule a dinâmica atual do atelier de projeto convencional
Abstract: The use of interactive displays introduces new possibilities for participation and interaction between components of a team in the design process of architecture in various stages. The present study started with the identification of the difficulties in sharing information that design teams have to deal with during presential meetings. The study has focused on two issues. The first stage of the research consisted of a review of the literature about the importance of collaboration in the design process. Next, a survey of the available technologies that allow the production of manuals sketches directly in digital format was performed. Among these technologies, two were chosen for the development of an experimental research: an electronic whiteboard and an opaque tablet. The experimental stage of research began with a preliminary study to assess the capabilities of the equipment. The initial methodology was adjusted, according to the preliminary results, and a new experiment was performed in the second semester of 2008. This experiment allowed to obtain results that describe the benefits and shortcomings of the use of interactive displays during the design process. The present research is expected to contribute to the integration of digital media in design education and to help reformulating the dynamics of the architectural design studio

Full textPrevious research predicts that the accounting industry in the next 25 years will experience a lot of turbulence as a result of the intensive technological developments. When bookkeeping becomes automated, the work of an accounting consultant presumes to be more effective and the automation process will most likely develop even faster in the following years. In order for the accounting firms not to be overtaken and lose market shares to their rivals, the importance of being aware of, and continuously look for new automated solutions appears to be meaningful. The aim of this study is to understand and explain how the automation process looks like at accounting firms today, how the industry has changed as a result of the technological developments and what current changes the accounting consultants are facing. The study is based on empirical evidence from a qualitative method with data from eleven semi-structured interviews at the following accounting firms; PwC, Ernst & Young, KPMG, Grant Thornton, Accountor and Wint. Our respondents includes five accounting consultants with different experience and six individuals who has a more responsible role at the accounting firms, such as manager. Some of the conclusions that the study has generated is that the technological developments has resulted in the fact that the accounting consultants can put a deeper focus in qualified tasks that creates a greater value for the client, rather than perform the standardized bookkeeping. Furthermore, the workload is presumed to remain at a high level according to the argument above. Despite the many benefits and the positive effects of automation, the study has shown that there are also many challenges when it comes to resistance to transformations, old regulations and new rivals entering the market. The accounting industry is therefore expected to face some major changes which we will highlight throughout the study.

Full textDigitaliseringen pågår i hög takt och implementeras i samhället i stor grad, dock påvisar byggbranschen en digital utvecklingsgrad som inte kan jämställas med andra tekniskt beroende branscher. Byggbranschen omsätter stora mängder pengar och producerar en lång byggprocess som likaså producerar stora kostnader och har en inverkan på miljön. Det finns därför ett behov av att analysera och utreda hur de digitala hjälpmedlen som tillkommer vid en ökad digitaliseringsgrad kan effektivisera byggbranschen. Effektiviseringen preciseras i bland annat AI:s tillkomst och dess potential inom byggbranschen samt vilka möjligheter och utmaningar som byggbranschen ställs inför vid utförandet av en digital utveckling. Studien grundas i en jämförelse mellan en litteraturstudie och en intervjustudie som omfattar frågor som behandlar den digitala implementering som de olika organisationerna och företagen har bedrivit samt den framtida potential som tillkommer med deras initiativ. Det har framkommit att det finns en allmän nytta i att bedriva en digitalisering på en organisationsnivå. Huruvida de nyligen framtagna digitala medlen kan implementeras ifrågasätts, menat att det finns en komplex relation mellan de upphandlande underentreprenörerna och beställarna. De erbjudna tjänsterna och utförandesättet som underentreprenörerna erbjuder kräver investeringar för att implementera digitala medel och därmed öka digitaliseringsgraden. De större aktörerna har makten och den ekonomiska potentialen för att öka digitaliseringsgraden inom organisationen eller företaget där de mindre aktörerna måste förhålla sig till denna utveckling. Den ojämna digitaliseringsgraden synliggörs idag då makten för prissättningen av upphandlingen ligger hos underentreprenörerna i de regionalt prissatta tjänsterna som inte undergått en vidare digital utveckling. För att omsätta mer pengar i byggbranschen behöver branschen uppnå en globalt konkurrensmässig upphandling liksom tillverkningsindustrin, vilket anses tillkomma med en mer produktbaserad upphandling. För att de mindre aktörerna ska kunna särskilja sitt arbetssätt krävs en unik implementering av digitala medel och på sätt kunna förhålla sig till de större aktörerna, vilket behövs för att kunna erbjuda digitala tjänster som kommer vara eftertraktade i framtiden.

Full textThe Fourth Industrial Revolution and the technological evolution in place are originating significant changes in culture, society and economy. Rapid transformations in the world of work revealed the need of involving the main subjects in charge of driving both organizational and professional change toward an engaging and collaborative research path, able to make clear and describe different ways to face the experiences connected with the undergoing changes. Within this context, the thesis aims at contributing in outlining the new work culture emerging from some innovative practices, present in the new educational and training ecosystem. The scientific research, started in December 2019 and concluded in September 2020, is articulated in four questions: How is the context in which we live and work changing? How is the work culture undergoing transformations? Which Drivers do facilitate its understanding? Are the elements of the work culture useful also in the light of a new radical and unexpected transformation? The answers intend to provide some points for reflection and a first practical guidance for all those who are directly involved in the creation of new learning solutions, aimed at transferring value to citizens and workers of tomorrow.

Since the establishment of the first television station in 1962, Taiwan has had fifty years of TV history. The TV industry was a closed market, from three wireless cable stations to the high quality digital tide. Due to the rapid technological changes, a variety of appearances and industrial forms have gradually taken shape in recent years, which have given rise to numerous new services and the emergence of new industry types. The case company under the television industry ecosystem whose success, after deep involvement in the cable industry, gave it the opportunity to bid for innovative services in the case story. How a company discovers and uses available resources when innovative business opportunities arise and when faced with the uncertainty of new markets in order to obtain a crucial position in the industrial network and enhance the organization’s competitive status in the industry will determine the company’s future business direction. How can the case company carry out quick assessments in order to complete the key decision that sufficiently affects the company’s growth? This study is based on the Harvard Case and a discussion targeting core competency, industrial network, resource bricolage, ambidexterity and other issues was conducted. The discussion includes how the case company applies its core advantage of flexible responses when seeking more business opportunities, thereby equipping itself with the ability to profit and achieving flexible development.

Because of the growth of new-type intermediate traders and the increase of independent visitors, the travel agency is being divided gradually. In recent years, tourism industry is being upgraded by big data’s applications which are all the rage. Big data analysis which is different from traditional databases can predict customers’ demands and offer product experiences. By doing so, it can offer a new opportunity for conventional travel agencies. This research bases on Resource-Based Theory (RBT) and uses big data applications as intervening variables. By observing these cases and gathering the second-handed information by interviewing the managers of three different kinds of travel agencies, this research studies what kinds of core capabilities which travel agencies should possess. Besides, this research also studies the competitive relationship between traditional ravel agencies and new-type intermediate traders. By reference reviews and cases interviews, this research sorts out conventional travel agencies’ key factors of success in developing e-commerce area. The top issue for travel agencies is to know their own advantages of sources. Moreover, travel agencies should further enhance and raise their four new core capabilities which include tourism professions, social network’s asset managements, strategies of brand data and integrations between upstream and downstream sources by using their own advantages. After possessing these core capabilities, travel agencies should manage social network’s asset by analyzing brand data. Furthermore, they should also integrate corporations’ sources and improve performance systems. Ultimately, they should take online to offline(O2O) and Co-opetition strategies to build a new industry’s ecosystem. This method is the main key point of enhancing organizations’ performance and reintermediation for traditional travel agencies.

This research is based on Value Net raised by Brandenburger and Nalebuff (1996) in the book of “Co-opetition”. The two sports channels are put on the center of Value Net to achieve three purposes in this research. 1. To discuss the coopetition Modes of two sports channels since commence. 2. To debate the impacts digital revolution will bring to two sports channels. 3. Deliberate the possible “new value” under two sports channels’ coopetition Modes in digital revolution。This research adopts documentary analysis, which mainly based on media information and electronic information, including theses and dissertations, journal, newspaper and magazine. Coding all the data obtained and put each code on the proper position on Value Net to compare, then implement editing analysis to analyze two sports channels’ coopetition modes. Value chain analysis discusses the impact digital revolution brings to the two sports channels. Based on the analysis and results of data, this research concludes that since Videoland Sports Channel secured the Broadcast right of CPBL in 1997 to compete with ERA sports channel, and recently bought HD outside broadcasting truck and High-Speed cameras for broadcast, its core values are the professional producing ability and localization. On the other hand, the core value of ELTA sports channel is it’s digital technology such as Digital Convergence, HD and 3D, but it still needs to rely on other channels for broadcasting domestic games. The competition on the broadcast right is generated between these two sports channels, but the complementary cooperation may sometimes happened as all the factors including customers and commercials in Value Net will affect the result. All the games and TV programs’ coopetition modes could vary. In digital revolution, two sports channels face the issues of the dilution of channel value, quantities demanded for programs, limited growth of commercials, and complicated back office support, and all the above mentioned issues are related to the inconsistence with regulation. Wish the amendment of regulatory could create new value to two sports channels, and further in operating steady and promoting the quality of programs.

Full textA expressão Fintech refere-se a empresas que combinam finanças e tecnologia para transformar o setor de serviços financeiros. As Fintechs estão a causar disrupção no setor, desafiando os incumbentes, bancos tradicionais, com novas proposições bancárias e proporcionando experiências inovadores para os consumidores. Avanços tecnológicos, gerações cada vez mais tecnológicas e regulamentações mais brandas estão a criar oportunidades para as Fintechs se destacarem no mercado. Particularmente, os challenger banks estão a estabelecer novos padrões para a indústria dando mais importância a experiências bancárias. No geral, a indústria está a tornar-se mais competitiva e orientada para o consumidor. Além disso, novas tendências, como o Open Banking, estão a fomentar a colaboração entre incumbentes e Fintechs. Em Portugal, isto não é exceção e os bancos nacionais precisam de estar preparados para este novo paradigma digital. Ao mesmo tempo, os challenger banks, como o Revolut, também estão a conquistar terreno no mercado português. Esta Dissertação inclui um Estudo de Caso sobre o Revolut e os desafios que defronta ao enfrentar o mercado português, uma Revisão de Literatura sobre temas relacionados com Fintechs e disrupção nos mercados financeiros, e uma Nota de Ensino que analisa possíveis caminhos para a análise do Caso e o seu uso para uma aula.
