“…When product semantics drive technologies and market demands to change, such strategy is referred to as design-driven innovation [14]. DDI is a framework that supports the interpretation of emerging socio-cultural norms and enables the proposal of radical new meanings [44] for new products that customers will love [45] and also for reinvigorating the life cycle of long-standing products [46,47]. Numerous DDI literature point out that its focus on changing the meaning of products can help in understanding how to change the meaning of the design processes [48].…”

To discover how the lacquerware industry realizes its core competency, it is important to explore its upgrading strategies in the global value chains. The purpose of this study is to discuss the upgrading strategies applied during the lacquerware industry’s four economic stages and the approach to realize the industry’s sustainability. Results show that (1) OEM enterprises reach process upgrading with four strategies, ODM enterprises reach product upgrading with five strategies, OBM enterprises reach functional upgrading with four strategies, and OSM enterprises reach chain upgrading with two strategies; (2) the lacquerware industry‘s main elements in SSCM include the long-standing relations, reprocessing of defective products, employing the local community, and participation in regional and transregional development initiatives, wherein the design sector is the main link in the SSCM of the lacquerware. The result and implications provided by this study can serve as a reference for other lacquerware and local traditional handicraft industries that are seeking to upgrade and achieve sustainability during their economic development.

The main goal of the research was to specify the features for the key competencies’ formation of teachers of labor education and technology and provide recommendations for their implementation based on the competence approach. The main method was a sociological survey among students majoring in “Labor Education and Technology”. As a result of research, the essential features which arise in the preparation of students of a specialty "Labor training and technologies" of the researched university are revealed. The differences between the competencies defined in the standard for the preparation of students majoring in “Labor Education and Technology” and the professional competencies of teachers are identified. As a result was shown that the success of the progress of forming qualified competencies is ensured by creating the following conditions: introduction of a systematic approach, implementation of a contextual approach through updating the possibilities of subjects for future qualified competence. Future teachers, according to their specialties and qualifications, stimulate the conducts and methods of their development. The practical significance of the study is to form recommendations and principles for the subject competence of students majoring in “Labor Education and Technology” taking into account their future professional needs.

“…This will help to enrich our understanding of cooperation among different firms. As the decision to establish an alliance to access external resources is a strategic one (Sehnem et al , 2020; Tomlinson and Fai, 2016), it is likely to influence firm’s activity or increase the possibility of firm survival in the market (Fuller-Love, 2009). Thus, examining co-operative behavior of craft and other enterprises is crucial for policymakers and practitioners to develop and promote different enterprises.…”

Purpose Though certain characteristics of micro-firms affect the likelihood of their participation in external relationships, how cooperation in craft enterprises differs from low and high-tech enterprises has not been investigated yet. Therefore, this study aims to fill the above gap in the literature. Design/methodology/approach This study adopts a descriptive approach by extensively reviewing relevant literature to explore the unique characteristics and nature of micro-firm's co-operative behavior. The theoretical approach of this research is grounded in resource-based view and dynamic capabilities theories. Findings This study finds that handicraft micro-firms possess special and unique characteristics that differentiate them from low- and high-tech firms. Further, handicraft micro-firms' co-operative behavior also differs from other firms in terms of cooperation motives, breadth, depth and factors that inhibit or promote cooperation. Additionally, in small handicraft firms, the co-operation is more informal, personal and through social networks, whereas in the corporate sector, it is more formal, direct and through supply chains. This study also argues that contrary to handicraft and low-tech firms, high-tech firms are more likely to cooperate with external partners and invest heavily in R&D for new product development (often radical in nature). Originality/value This study enriches our understanding of handicraft micro-firms' special and unique characteristics that differentiate them from low- and high-tech micro-firms. This research also provides in-depth knowledge to understand the handicraft micro-firms’ co-operative behavior and how it differs from low- and high-tech firms.
