“…Innovation is necessary to maintain business efficiency during the whole business process [57]. Sen and Ghandforoush [58] warn about the need to have technological and market knowledge when implementing innovation. Sustainable companies should create a development system to follow the best local practices.…”

Risks are a very important part of the business environment. If risks are managed well, they can provide a higher level of competitiveness and sustainability advantages for a company. The first step towards successful risk management is an identification of risks. The aim of this article is to create a risk profile for (small and medium-sized enterprises) SMEs in V4 countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary), compare them to each other and then compare the results with those for Serbia. The data were collected during an extensive research project organized by Tomas Bata University in Zlín in 2017 and 2018. In total 2110 answers of SMEs were analyzed. For the verification of hypotheses, a 5-point Likert scale, Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) and Multiple Factors Analysis (MFA) and ANOVA were used. The level of legal, security, personnel and operational risks is statistically higher in Serbia than in V4 countries, and the lowest level is in Slovakia. Some significant differences among the exposure to risk according to economic sectors were identified.

“…Our analysis reveals, furthermore, that these aspects of development of deep tube well technology and its embeddedness in the existing regime overlap with features of 'incremental innovation' (see e.g. Harty, 2010;Sen and Ghandforoush, 2011). Several overlapping features of incremental innovations have been identified in our analysis, for example, that the deep tube well shares certain technological attributes with the shallow tube well; users are acquainted with its operation; existing industries are able to produce and supply the technology; no new technical knowledge is required; and uncertainty within markets is low.…”

This paper explains why and how deep tube well as a safe drinking water technology has become dominant in mitigating the arsenic crisis in rural Bangladesh. We do so by applying insights from the Multi-Level Perspective on transitions in explaining changes in the safe socio-technical drinking water regime in rural Bangladesh. Data about seven dimensions of regime change were gathered from key actors through in-depth interviews, focus groups sessions, a survey, and a workshop. The findings reveal that with the introduction of deep tube well as an arsenic mitigation technology, the observed changes in the seven dimensions help to transform the existing safe drinking water regime in order to re-stabilise it. Technological attributes, symbolic meaning, industry structures, and techno-scientific knowledge have supported an evolving dominance of the deep tube well. Besides, user practices as well as related infrastructures have adapted to the use of deep tube wells, and new policies stimulated its application. We argue that the dimensions of the technology change in the existing regime are consistent with the features of incremental innovation. By offering such insights, we show the relevance of the Multi-Level Perspective on transitions to analyse socio-technical innovation in a developing world context.

“…Innovations typology as radical and incremental innovation is innovation typology refers to the improvement of products, services, and processes which has existed (Sen & Ghandforoush, 2011). Therefore, to increase innovation to show more signifi cant results then it needs to be managed innovatively.…”

This research aims to provide additional qualitative evidence of the logical relationship between governance innovation and public policy in public services in Indonesia with adopting the logic model. The logic model is often not adopting in the formulation of policies that resulted in the implementation of public sector innovation such as cannot show more significant results. Also this model is believed to contribute in planning and evaluation of government programs. Most of this article based on the literature study and direct observation. The study also refers to some cases were chosen deliberately and treated as evidence by using a descriptive qualitative approach for developing an argument and conceptual framework accordingly. This research resulted in some information. First, governance innovation will provide multi-benefits, not only for the government but will involve a range of other institutions. Second, public policy is treated as a formal legal basis to keep programs planning and evaluation. That way this article is expected to contribute to the knowledge development of logical relationships among governance innovation and public policy in the diﬀerent local contexts Indonesia from countries which often becomes a reference in managing public service innovation.
