“…A major negative impact is related to firm performances [24]. Today many firms, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), are struggling to find survival plans for the next quarter or next month [25,26]. To survive in this turbulent environment, organizations must be agile with dynamic capabilities.…”

Rapid detection of fast innovation under the pressure of COVID-19

Covid-19 has rapidly redefined the agenda of technological research and development both for academics and practitioners. If the medical scientific publication system has promptly reacted to this new situation, other domains, particularly in new technologies, struggle to map what is happening in their contexts. The pandemic has created the need for a rapid detection of technological convergence phenomena, but at the same time it has made clear that this task is impossible on the basis of traditional patent and publication indicators. This paper presents a novel methodology to perform a rapid detection of the fast technological convergence phenomenon that is occurring under the pressure of the Covid-19 pandemic. The fast detection has been performed thanks to the use of a novel source: the online blogging platform Medium. We demonstrate that the hybrid structure of this social journalism platform allows a rapid detection of innovation phenomena, unlike other traditional sources. The technological convergence phenomenon has been modelled through a network-based approach, analysing the differences of networks computed during two time periods (pre and post COVID-19). The results led us to discuss the repurposing of technologies regarding “Remote Control”, “Remote Working”, “Health” and “Remote Learning”.

Purpose This paper aims to examine the relationship between global value chains (GVCs) and domestic value-added content (DVA) in a panel of 58 countries for the period 2005–2015. Design/methodology/approach First, the authors quantify the refined measures of GVC linkages by using the Borin and Mancini (2019) decomposition technique. Second, the authors apply the feasible generalised least squares method to test the relationship between GVCs and DVA empirically. Findings First, the authors find that GVC links are crucial to the enhancement of DVA. Second, a study at the sectoral level reveals that GVC links in the primary sector raise DVA whilst reducing DVA in the services sector. Third, the authors find that only upstream activities enhance value-added content. Fourth, the authors note the augmenting role played by national policies in mediating the gains associated with GVCs. Finally, the authors note that the outcomes associated with GVCs are consistent when the sample of countries is divided into groups based on income. Practical implications The results lead us to urge policymakers to promote greater integration of business activities into GVCs to reap their benefits. Originality/value This paper contributes to the research on the impact of GVCs on DVA by emphasising the significance of the types of GVC activities and policies that improve DVA.

“…Its impact on economy ( Makin and Layton, 2021 , Yoshino et al, 2021 , Yagi and Managi, 2021 ), government ( Sharma et al, 2020 , Tisdell, 2020 , Park and Chung, 2021 ) and publics ( Vally, 2020 , Watkins and Maruthappu, 2020 ) have unfolded. Given greater availability of data, the research about the effect of COVID-19 on stock market is rich and can be categorized into following aspects: (a) the negative effect of COVID-19 on firm and industry performances ( Gu et al, 2020 , He et al, 2020a , He et al, 2020b , Iyke, 2020a , Qin et al, 2020 , Xiong et al, 2020 ); (b) the increased stock return volatility due to the COVID-19 pandemic ( Dai et al, 2021 , Liu et al, 2020a , Liu et al, 2021 , Nguyen et al, 2021 , Phan and Narayan, 2020 ); (c) the fear sentiment because of the COVID-19 ( Ahmed, 2020 , Baig et al, 2020 , Hoang and Syed, 2021 ); (d) the risk contagion as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic ( Abuzayed et al, 2021 , Akhtaruzzaman et al, 2020 , Corbet et al, 2021 , Jiang et al, 2020 , Sharma, 2020 , Zhang et al, 2021 ). 1…”
