“…The networking of businesses (e.g., incubators and technology parks) offers synergies in the joint management of information, knowledge and human resources. Knowledge and information become crucial for success in the Fourth Industrial Revolution ( Kabir, 2019 ). The organization is required to do as much as possible, including optimizing resources, reducing costs per unit produced and enabling greater efficiency.…”

The research reported in this paper explores the impact of digital transformation as a disruptive innovation on manufacturing SMEs. The research is based on a qualitative Delphi study encompassing 49 experts from eleven EU countries. The paper aims to demonstrate how disruptive innovations affect organizational changes and determine critical factors in organizations that impact the initiating and promoting R&D of disruptive innovation. We discovered that disruptive innovations impact product/process development methods, new production concepts, new materials for products, and new organization plans. Additionally, we identified organizational changes related to the development and use of disruptive innovations in the future. We also indicate how disruptive innovations influence social and technological changes in the organizational environment. The analysis also disclosed three main groups of disruptive innovations and their impact on future smart factory development, namely the following: technological changes, the emergence of innovative products, business models and solutions and organizational culture as one of the crucial key success factors. The analysis also examined the enablers of the successful development/introduction of disruptive innovations, wherein internal and external factors were determined. Additionally, we presented obstacles and the approaches necessary to mitigate them. We can conclude from the findings that in the timeframe of 5–10 years, only the SME that uses/develops disruptive innovations will survive in the market. However, the companies do not always have a clear idea of the meaning of disruptive innovations. Therefore, it is important to set clear goals regarding the achievement of disruptive innovations in companies. It is also necessary to creatively apply presented instruments enabling improvement of organizational changes and apply some additional concepts, which we have suggested.

“…Zambrano Zambrano, Elisa Juverly; Sánchez Briones, Yenniz En las últimas décadas, se ha observado una expansión sin precedentes de la globalización, el desarrollo tecnológico y las redes de comunicación. Este fenómeno ha facilitado un aumento exponencial en los flujos y volúmenes de conocimiento, elevando su relevancia como uno de los recursos más críticos para las organizaciones contemporáneas (Kabir, 2019). No obstante, es el conocimiento innovador, aquel que rompe paradigmas y permite la configuración de reglas propias en el mercado, el que se ha destacado como la herramienta más valiosa dentro de una organización.…”

Nowadays, the growing importance of knowledge management in organizations and educational institutions is evident, given the speed of transformations in society, the market and technology. Faced with the demand for innovation and improvement in employees, such management emerges as a key competence. The objective of this paper is to examine the theoretical foundations of knowledge management and to explore the creation of a knowledge management system in higher education institutions in Ecuador. For this purpose, a qualitative and exploratory methodology was used, based on a literature review and analysis of current trends. The findings highlight the role of knowledge management in organizational competitiveness and its relevance in academia. Higher education institutions need to transform themselves into centers of innovation, fostering continuous learning and playing an essential role in the training of professionals adapted to economic and social demands. It is concluded that knowledge management is fundamental in academia, representing a growing trend to enhance competitiveness. However, this approach implies a paradigm shift towards the active incorporation of knowledge management in these institutions.

Entrepreneurial intentions refer to an individual's conscious and planned decision to participate in entrepreneurial activities, reflecting their desire to start a new venture or pursue opportunities. Entrepreneurial behaviors encompass the actions and activities undertaken by individuals to initiate, develop, and manage a business venture, involving aspects such as opportunity recognition, resource acquisition, innovation, risk-taking, and networking. Entrepreneurship education instills confidence and reduces the perceived barriers to entrepreneurship, motivating students to take the necessary steps to turn their entrepreneurial aspirations into tangible ventures. The research utilized the descriptive research design. The target population was 250 business students in Tianjin, China. The study did sampling of 230 respondents that were selected from the target population of 250 business students in Tianjin, China. The collection of data was conducted through stratified random sampling and questionnaires were used to gather data. The study concluded that entrepreneurship education positively affects students' intentions to become entrepreneurs and shapes their entrepreneurial behaviors. The incorporation of practical and experiential learning activities, such as business plan competitions and internships, proves to be particularly effective in enhancing entrepreneurial intentions and providing hands-on experiences for aspiring entrepreneurs. The curriculum that encompasses a wide range of entrepreneurial topics, including opportunity recognition, risk management, and innovation, plays an important role in shaping students' entrepreneurial mindset and knowledge. It was recommended that educational institutions should continue to prioritize entrepreneurship education and allocate resources to develop comprehensive and practical entrepreneurship programs. Institutions should employ rigorous assessment methods to measure the outcomes and effect of entrepreneurship education on students' intentions and behaviors. Policymakers should recognize the importance of entrepreneurship education and provide support to educational institutions in implementing and enhancing entrepreneurship programs.
