“…Innovation players consist of the government, companies, universities and research institutions, and intermediary service agencies. The government provides favorable economic and regulatory conditions for companies, universities, and research institutions [28]. The government can not only offer hard security by improving infrastructure such as transportation and communications, but also provide soft support by establishing and improving relevant laws and regulations, such as tax reduction and exemption policies [25].…”

Constructing and exploring the evolution mechanism of an industrial innovation ecosystem in resource-based cities (RBCs) is the most effective way to solve the contradiction between economic development, energy shortage, and environmental degradation. Taking 10 typical RBCs in Shanxi Province as examples, this paper used the method of system dynamics (SD) to build a model of the industrial innovation ecosystem of RBCs and set up scenarios to simulate and predict the evolution of the industrial innovation ecosystem of RBCs. The results showed that the industrial innovation ecosystem of RBCs is a complex system composed of four subsystems: innovation players, innovation content, innovation resources, and innovation environment. In innovation players, the increase in the amount of talent has a more obvious effect on technology level and GDP than R&D funding. In innovation content, the improvement of management level has a slow and continuous positive impact on GDP. Technology achievements, once implemented, will improve GDP more than management progress does. In innovation resources, human capital has greater potential for an increase in GDP and per capita consumption expenditure. In innovation resources, technology level plays an important role in slowing down the deterioration of the ecological environment. This study enriched the theoretical paradigm of the research on the industrial innovation ecosystem, and provided effective strategies to solve the development problems of RBCs.

“…Considering the necessities of the current business world, the innovation ecosystems are gaining importance as a lever to foster innovation in organisations (Secundo et al, 2019;Suominen, Seppänen and Dedehayir, 2019;Arenal et al, 2020). As mentioned previously, hospitals and healthcare institutions need to reposition themselves in the way they interact with society.…”

Innovation has come a long way since the times it was defined just as a new idea. Nowadays, innovation activities comprise a lot more, from new products and/or services to improvements in organisational business models. The healthcare sector is no exception. This leads public authorities to increase their investment in innovation, research and development in the healthcare sector. The rising of internal and external collaborations between hospitals and other parties calls for a specific analysis on how the healthcare innovation environments behave and how knowledge flows within them are managed. This study, through the lens of the ecosystem theory, aims to study how a healthcare innovation ecosystem can be activated and knowledge flows are managed to ensure that all the parties are benefited. For that purpose, it presents a case study based on a set of three meetings of Portuguese stakeholders inserted in innovation healthcare ecosystems. With this work it was possible to observe that the healthcare innovation ecosystem can be analysed from different perspectives. The interaction with the different stakeholders allowed to identify possible partners to be involved in innovation activities (e.g.: hospitals, universities, research centres, start-ups). This paper suggests possible roles for the different parties along the innovation funnel as well as what they can do in each phase. Using a case study approach, it is possible to compare different contexts and identify best practices on the management of healthcare innovation ecosystems. Also, it becomes evident the need for more effective knowledge management to ensure that hospitals and the other parties meet their goals and play a relevant role in the ecosystem. Although this paper provides guidelines for action, it lacks implementation of the suggestions in a specific context. As such, this paper aims to serve as a basis for future research on the study of hospitals’ innovation ecosystems and underlying knowledge flows, in different contexts to achieve best practices for its effective management.

“…The open innovation (OI) and its impacts on economic, social and even political markets, are widely valued among several stakeholders (which naturally includes the policymakers), since it is an important key factor to achieve competitiveness. Several authors have recently increased the literature production, regarding the importance of innovation into our societies [7]. The innovation concept has become an important issue to be considered in the political and public discourse, with bringing therefore, an important impact on several scientific fields.…”

A Framework for Risk Assessment in Collaborative Networks to Promote Sustainable Systems in Innovation Ecosystems

Nowadays—and due to an increasingly competitive world—organizations need to collaborate in an open innovation context to be efficient and effective by achieving high levels of innovation with their products and services. However, the existing resources—as well as the innovation achieved from the diversity of partners involved—brings challenges to the management; in particularly with risk management. To fulfill such needs, risk management frameworks have been created to support managers, on preventing threats with systems development, although without properly account the influence of each system component, on the entire system, as well as the subjectivity within human perception. To account for these issues, a framework supported by fuzzy logic is presented in this work, to evaluate the risk level on system development in open innovation environment. The approach robustness is assessed by using a case study, where the challenges and benefits found are discussed.
