Abstract:
This article describes the main innovations theories and concepts of the 20th century. Economists confirm the importance of scientific and technological progress, innovation and institutional changes in stimulating economic growth and development. The article reviews studies conducted by prominent Russian and foreign economists such as M.I. Tugan-Baranovsky, N.D. Kondratiev, J. Schumpeter, P.A. Sorokin, S.Yu. Glaziev, G. Bernal, R. Solow, S. Kuznets, B. Twiss, G. Mensch, K. Freeman, J. Vandein, and other researchers who have made significant contributions to the study of innovations. The article outlines basic innovative theories and concepts, the evolution of approaches to assessing innovation activities, and the analysis of the impact of innovations on economic development. Important topics such as economic cycles, Kondratiev’s wave theory, Schumpeter’s concepts of “creative destruction”, as well as findings done by Bernal, Solow, and Kuznets confirming the influence of scientific and technological progress on economic growth are covered in the article. The importance of scientific research in the field of innovations is emphasized by G. Mensch, K. Freeman, J. Van Deyn, A. Kleinknecht, F. Hayek, B. Lundvall, R. Coase, S. Davis, E. Mansfield, A. Romeo, and D. North, who have identified the role of innovations in stimulating economic development and the need for institutional changes to support the innovative activities. Glaziev’s studies on technological paradigms, Freeman’s concept of a national innovation system, Van Deyn’s hypothesis on the connection between innovation and socio-economic development, as well as the work of Twiss, who highlighted the decisive impact of science and technology on socio-economic development, underscore the significance of research in the field of innovations and its impact on the economy. Innovations theories and concepts define innovation as a crucial factor in economic development, stimulating competition, increasing productivity, and contributing to the restructuring of the economy. Understanding the patterns of innovation activities and the factors influencing their effectiveness is crucial for developing effective economic policies. The results of the research can be used to determine the place of innovation in the modern world, evaluate its impact on the economic growth, and develop measures to support and stimulate the innovative activities of Russian economic entities, ensuring technological leadership and sovereignty in current conditions.

Abstract:
The expansive research on innovation in organizations has primarily followed a technological imperative, postulating that organizations organize their innovation efforts through research and development (R&D) activities. Theories of innovation are thus shaped mosdy from the studies of technology-based innovations in the manufacturing sector, yet are applied in all contexts. This article advocates research on managerial innovations - new approaches to devise strategy and structure of tasks and units, modify the organization's management processes and administrative systems, motivate and reward organizational members, and enable organizational adaptation and change. We examine the conceptual development, generation and adoption processes, antecedents, and influences of managerial innovation on organizational conduct. By increasing an understanding of managerial innovation, this article aims to complement existing theories of innovation derived from the studies of technological innovations and thus help extend and advance theory and research on innovation process and outcome in organizations.

Abstract:
The article’s purpose is to conduct research on the evolution of innovative development theories of the national economy. The article used the methods of generalization, scientific abstraction, systemic and economic analysis. The article proves that there is no single approach to the definition of these concepts, which indicates their diversity and the need for further research in order to specify them; innovation is a final materialized product, technology or service obtained as a result of the activation of innovative processes at the enterprise, characterized by better characteristics and technological level compared to previous analogues; innovative activity and process are closely related to scientific developments and research, in particular fundamental and applied; innovative activity involves the dissemination of innovations and the results of scientific and technical progress in order to meet the new needs of society, this type of activity is also risky, it involves the involvement of a large number of resources at all stages of the creation, testing and final implementation of the innovation. In many scientists researches, innovative activity is studied mostly in connection with innovations, the innovation process, since most scientists first define and conduct research on the concept of “innovation”. However, these concepts are different in their meaning. Innovative activity, in contrast to the innovative process, is a narrower concept, as it involves the practical application and implementation of innovative, scientific and intellectual potential in the business process, with the aim of obtaining a new competitive product in the production process that will better satisfy the demands and needs of consumers. The practical value of the article lies in the systematization of innovative development theories on the basis of studied sources and own considerations. Key words: innovation; innovation process, innovative development, theories of innovation, researchers.

Abstract:
This study explores the relationship between extracurricular activities and student innovation performance, drawing on various theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence. Through a comprehensive literature review, the study examines the impact of extracurricular activities on students' development of critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration skills—essential components of innovation. The TRIZ innovation theory and social cognitive career theory provide theoretical underpinnings for understanding how participation in extracurricular activities fosters innovation skills among students. Additionally, the study presents a literature review matrix summarizing key findings from previous research on extracurricular activities and their effects on student development. The findings suggest that participation in extracurricular activities significantly enhances students' capacity for innovation by cultivating higher-order thinking skills and providing opportunities for real-world problem-solving. Moreover, the study discusses the implications of extracurricular engagement for students' future career success and organizational innovation. The study concludes with recommendations for future research, emphasizing the need for comparative studies across diverse student populations, in-depth analyses of specific types of extracurricular activities, and exploration of cultural differences in attitudes toward extracurricular involvement. Overall, this study contributes to a better understanding of how extracurricular activities influence student innovation performance and provides insights for educators and policymakers seeking to enhance innovation capabilities among young professionals

Abstract:
This article examines whether hitherto marginalized actors, industries and innovations – such as women, services industries and service innovations – could be acknowledged by the use of a bottom-up approach in innovation research in a way that helps make public innovation support more inclusive. It is scrutinized whether the relation between context, organization and outcomes in publically financed innovation networks such as clusters and innovation systems serves to highlight how more inclusive innovation support could be designed. Four regional innovation networks promoting women’s entrepreneurship and innovation in Sweden are analyzed by a bottom-up approach, since while emphasizing decentralization and inclusion in theory, most innovation theories and policies are in practice characterized by a top-down approach, ascribing superiority to certain actors, industries and innovations while marginalizing others in a distinct – often gendered – pattern. The bottom-up approach makes it possible to expose that being a marginalized actor in public innovation support is related to the organization of entrepreneurial types of innovation systems, based on contacts established ad hoc and resources gathered from scratch, making a wider range of actors, industries and innovations relevant than in institutional types of innovation systems favored in prevalent public innovation support. By acknowledging both types of innovation systems, more inclusive innovation policies could be designed and more nuanced innovation theories could be developed.

Abstract:
Objective: To understand how the governance structure between producers and slaughter cooperatives of specialty beef chain in Paraná, Brazil, influence innovation and the remuneration of the value generated.Methodology: Semi-structured interviews were performed with 17 agents from two cooperatives and producers in the specialty beef chain in Paraná, Brazil. Originality: This study seeks to fill a gap in the literature by combining innovation and efficiency theories to assess how agents organize themselves enable them to create and remunerate the value generated.Main results: This study shows that producers and cooperatives organize themselves in a hybrid form involving verbal agreements which enable innovations due to information exchanges between producers. However, possible failures in value distribution stem from the non-remuneration of quality attributes, which may discourage innovations and the performance of the chain.Managerial contributions: Despite failures, cooperatives promote innovation and are a viable alternative for producers to compete in the market. Incentives can mitigate the risks associated with the observed failures. This study provides insights for private and public actions to encourage the formation of these arrangements and to improve the coordination of innovation subsystems.Theoretical contributions: Since efficiency theories underestimate innovation, our analysis employed efficiency and innovation theories, contributing to the better understanding of subsystems which depend on innovation to produce specialty products.

Abstract:
There is a need to ensure the effective transfer and diffusion of successful policy innovations that facilitate sustainable development in the Middle East region. However, to date there has been limited research on policy innovation in the Middle East region through theories such as policy diffusion, with most studies focused on North America and Western Europe. The following short essay represents an attempt to highlight this shortfall, stimulate discussion on what key factors could facilitate policy innovation in the Middle East, and promote further studies to address this imbalance. This is a theoretical study that primarily examines three theories that address the spread of policy innovation between governments: policy diffusion, policy laboratories, and borrowing strength. These theories are applied to different factors that influence policy innovation (geographic proximity, political ideology, culture, and networks and individuals) considered within the context of the Middle East to assess their relevance and applicability. Based on the application of these theories and key factors, the essay proposes three novel hypotheses for policy innovation, which are linked to the different factors. Each hypothesis identifies an area where it is expected that policy innovation would occur, if the theories hold true in a Middle Eastern Context. The essay contains an accompanying call to test these hypotheses within the region. It is expected that further studies in this area will be able to both test and build on the proposed hypotheses to determine the applicability of current (Western) theories to explain policy innovation in the Middle East and move towards a more comprehensive and targeted theory of policy in this region.

Abstract:
The article summarizes scientific knowledge about the innovative development of the economy. Currently, there are conflicting views in scientific papers on the conditions for the emergence and spread of innovation, especially in times of economic crisis. Therefore, the aim of this study is to reveal the views of scientists on the role of innovation in economic development and substantiating the principles of forming areas of financial support for innovation to overcome the effects of economic crises and strengthen the country's competitiveness. The study of the main fundamental theories of innovative development allowed to summarize the views of scientists on the relationship between economic development and innovation processes. Based on the theoretical views of scientists, two paradigms of post-industrial society have been identified, which are based on understanding the relationship between the nature of cycles of economic development and innovation, as well as the presentation of innovative development as a factor of economic growth. The analyzed theories of innovative development reveal innovations as an integral factor of economic growth of any society. The main reason for the cyclical nature of economic development according to the theories of innovation is the uneven nature of the introduction of innovations, which causes periodic violations of economic equilibrium. The study of these patterns makes it possible to justify the direction of innovation processes and develop a financial mechanism for their stimulation. Today, innovation should become a top priority in efforts to accelerate the economic development of states, which will ensure the implementation of intensified investment processes and the implementation of ways out of the crisis. That is why, in our opinion, the study and use of theories of innovative development in times of economic shocks should be the basis for developing a long-term innovative model of economic development.

Abstract:
When compared to other industries, the construction industry has been slow to adopt digital technologies. BIM stands for Building Information Modeling (hereon referred to as BIM) and it represents a turning point when it comes to digitalization in the AEC sector. Despite BIM’s proven potential to reduce costs and improve the efficiency of construction projects, widescale adoption, and implementation of construction projects using BIM hasn’t happened yet. This research aims to conduct an innovation analysis of adoption of BIM in Europe using innovation theories such as Rogers’s diffusion theory and Crossing the Chasm by Moore. We hope the reader will have an understanding of the various adoption barriers for BIM in Europe after reading this research paper.
Jämfört med andra branscher har byggbranschen varit långsam med att använda digital teknik. BIM står för Building Information Modeling (nedan kallad BIM) och representerar en vändpunkt när det gäller digitalisering inom AEC-sektorn. Trots BIM: s beprövade potential att minska kostnaderna och förbättra effektiviteten i byggprojekt, har vidsträckt antagande och genomförande av byggprojekt med BIM ännu inte hänt. Denna forskning syftar till att göra en innovationsanalys av antagandet av BIM i Europa med hjälp av innovationsteorier som Rogers diffusionsteori och Crossing the Chasm av Moore. Vi hoppas att läsaren kommer att ha en förståelse för de olika adoptionsbarriärerna för BIM i Europa efter att ha läst detta forskningsdokument.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.
IT governance is a highly researched field with a majority of the literature focusing on structural (form) and processual (contingency) mechanisms. The theoretical foundations of agency theory, which has a strong focus on control, predominantly underpin the current IT governance practices. The field is lacking in research contributions on relational mechanisms of IT governance and how they influence governance outcomes. Despite the amount of prescriptive models and “best practice frameworks” available in the field, achieving key IT governance outcomes remains amongst the highest ranked management concerns. This paper seeks to explicate the disharmony between current practices and espoused theory through a case study within an organization in the pursuit to understand multi-stakeholder perspectives as to their impression of governance, its purpose and relevance in the organization; for the purpose of attaining a systemic, multi -perspective view on governance as a practice within organizations, as opposed to those prescribed in mainstream theory. A key objective of this research is to provide more insight on the existing gap between the various stakeholders' perspectives on IT governance in the multiple echelons of an organization, with particular emphasis on the alignment of mental models and the process of sense making; revealing a deeper understanding of current governance practices from the social/relational, structural and processual mechanisms within an organization and highlighting the as-lived perceptions on IT governance purpose, objectives, important IT mechanisms for effective IT governance and perspectives on current IT governance effectiveness within their context. The culmination of the findings from this research reveal in a need for organizations to engage in a sense-making process that enables the inclusive conceptualization of IT governance within their context. At the core, it is about IT governance vision- purpose- practice alignment, and as a (important) consequence, about business and IT alignment.

This study investigates the concept of lifecycle stage and how, specifically in New Technology Base Firms (NTBFs), lifecycle stage can provide a more refined understanding of many of the relationships people have investigated, and would like to investigate, around NTBFs. This paper is broken up into a series of studies looking at specific areas of existing research of NTBFs, namely the attributes of a CEO and their relationship with firm success as well as previously discovered determinants of innovation within NTBFs, and provides an understanding of how the lifecycle phase of a firm impacts the conclusions within this existing research. The objective of this research is to demonstrate the importance of lifecycle stage as a key variable to be considered when studying NTBFs, and to help increase the predictiveness and generalizability of existing research to enable it to be more effectively translated into best practices used by practitioners.

Abstract:
L'objet de la these est l'analyse de l'evolution des agglomerations productives composees principalement de PMI. L'angle d'entree pour comprendre ces evolutions est le processus d'innovation des firmes. Le cadre d'analyse elabore repose sur les travaux fondateurs de A. Marshall sur l'evolution et le district industriel, de G. B. Richardson sur la cooperation, B. J. Loasby sur la connaissance et des developpements recents en economie regionale sur l'espace territoire et les economies de proximite. L'hypothese de recherche est que des combinaisons differenciees de la proximite organisationnelle et de la proximite institutionnelle ont des consequences sur les processus d'innovation des firmes et l'aptitude des acteurs locaux a repondre collectivement aux enjeux productifs presents et anticipes pour l'avenir. Nous illustrons cette hypothese en comparant les evolutions differenciees d'un district industriel, la vallee de l'Arve en France, et d'un ensemble de PME, le jura bernois en Suisse
The thesis is about the evolution of SME's agglomeration. We focus on the innovation process of the firm. The theoretical tools are : the works of A. Marshall on evolution and industrial district, G. B. Richardson on co-operation and B. J. Loasby on economics knowledge. Our analysis is also based on the new spatial approaches of territory and proximity. We demonstrate that different combinations of organisational and institutional proximity imply first the differentiation of innovation process and secondly the ability of local actors to manage collectively the present and future issues. In this perspective, we have compared the evolution of an industrial district, the vallee de l'Arve in France, and a cluster of SME, the jura bernois in Switzerland

Abstract:
Coesione e competitività sono i principali obiettivi della politica regionale Europea. È però possibile che investimenti in competitività possano beneficiare maggiormente le regioni più sviluppate, a discapito della coesione. Si tratta di una contraddizione? In questo lavoro si risponde a questa domanda approfondendo tre argomenti. Il primo riguarda le determinanti della crescita regionale. Il secondo interessa il ruolo degli spillover di conoscenza per l’innovazione regionale. Il terzo è relativo al contributo delle infrastrutture di conoscenza all’attività innovativa regionale. I principali risultati possono essere sintetizzati in questa maniera. Una più alta crescita nella regioni meno sviluppate è importante ma non sufficiente a garantire convergenza. La crescita, nel lungo periodo, è determinata dagli investimenti in conoscenza, che producono rendimenti crescenti. La mancanza di sviluppo nelle regioni più arretrate può essere attribuita a questi divari di conoscenza, non sempre facili da colmare. Le esternalità alla base dei rendimenti crescenti sono estremamente localizzate e non si diffondono facilmente nelle economie. D’altra parte la conoscenza non si produce solamente con investimenti in ricerca. La promozione della ristrutturazione economica regionale verso modelli basati sulla conoscenza dovrebbe dedicare particolare attenzione alle fonti esterne di conoscenza, quali, accanto alle università, i servizi ad alto contenuto di conoscenza.
Cohesion and competitiveness are the two main objectives of the EU regional policy. It seems however that improving competitiveness will benefit developed regions more, implying a less cohesive Europe. Is that a contradiction? This work answers this question by studying three related topics. The first concerns the determinants of regional growth in Europe. The second is about the importance of interregional knowledge spillovers for the regional innovative activity. The third is related to the way knowledge infrastructures can shape regional innovative activity. The main results can be summarized as follows. The higher growth in least developed region is important but not sufficient to catch-up. Growth, in the long-run, is determined by investments in knowledge, which produce increasing returns. The lack of development of lagging regions could be accordingly ascribed to the existence of knowledge gaps which are not as easy to be filled. Knowledge externalities, the essence of the more than proportional returns, are extremely localized and do not necessarily spread across the economies. However knowledge is not only produced through R&D. The promotion of economic restructuring of lagging regions toward a knowledge-based economy should deserve special attention to external knowledge sources like, alongside universities, Knowledge Intensive Business Services.

Abstract:
The outward bound has been carried out as part of the PE course by many universities. In the teaching practice, however, it is not so closely connected with, or even deviated from, the PE instructional objectives in universities in China. In this essay, the research findings of modern physical education theory are applied to the outward bound course with significant theoretic innovation brought up to guarantee the healthy development of the outward bound in college PE teaching.

Full text
Abstract:
This Emerging Evidence Report shares evidence of how, for whom, and under what circumstances, Participatory Action Research (PAR) leads to innovative actions. A rapid realist review was undertaken to develop programme theories that explain how PAR generates innovation. The methodology included peer-reviewed and grey literature and moments of engagement with programme staff, such that their input supported the development and refinement of three resulting initial programme theories (IPTs) that we present in this report. Across all three IPTs, safe relational space, group facilitation, and the abilities of facilitators, are essential context and intervention components through which PAR can generate innovation. Implications from the three IPTs for evaluation design of the CLARISSA programme are identified and discussed. The report finishes with opportunities for the CLARISSA programme to start building an evidence base of how PAR works as an intervention modality, such as evidencing group-level conscientisation, the influence of intersecting inequalities, and influence of diverse perspectives coming together in a PAR process.

Full text
Abstract:
If policymakers or researchers aim to improve an intervention, scale it up, or assess why it works and for whom, then focussing solely on direct outcomes is not enough. There are several ways in which evaluations can go beyond traditional outcome measurement and explore the underlying drivers of impact and the behaviours of beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries. - Measurement goes hand in hand with developing a theory of change, and the two work best when they evolve jointly: new (and better) measurements could allow the consideration of more flexible and realistic theories, while theory informs the construction and design of new measures. - Linking measurement to human behaviour and decision-making processes offers useful angles for identifying the underlying drivers of an intervention’s impacts. - Measurement innovation and improvements—including the construction of new measures—are an important endeavour requiring cross-disciplinary input. This endeavour should be promoted.

Theories of change for transformation-oriented R&I polices: the case of the 7th Energy Research Programme in Germany. Fteval - Austrian Platform for Research and Technology Policy Evaluation, April 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.22163/fteval.2022.542.

Full text
Abstract:
This article investigates how Theories of Change for transformation-oriented R&I programmes can be designed to better grasp system transformation processes and thereby set the basis for a deeper understanding of transformative impact mechanisms and programme learning. The analysis is based within the realm of the energy system, which is an area of specific concern for socio-technical transformation. It focuses on the “7th Energy Research Programme” (EFP) of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action, which is the key R&I policy instrument contributing to the transformation of the energy system in Germany. The article shows how a programme theory approach can be combined with multi-level perspective innovation system thinking and the concept of transformative outcomes to increase the evaluability of complex, transformation-oriented R&I programmes.

Abstract:
The goal of the Impact Indicator and Instruments for Individual Development Plans (I3IDP) project, funded by the NSF Innovation in Graduate Education [Grant No. 1806607], was to build a foundation for determining how and why the Individual Development Plan (IDP) process is effective for STEM graduate students. To achieve this goal, we defined "IDP" and the core components of the IDP process in the context of social sciences studies and theories, defined anticipated measurable outcomes for the IDP process, and developed and tested a set of instruments for demonstrating changes in student actions and attitudes resulting from engagement in the IDP process. The result of this project was the I3IDP Survey Toolkit described in this document, which was constructed towards testing cohorts of graduate students engaged at various levels in the IDP-Process.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2014, UK higher education institutions implemented a new system for assessing the quality of research, the Research Excellence Framework (REF) and took the opportunity to introduce "impact beyond academia" as a 'new' assessment criterion. Transformation and innovation-oriented R&I policy are roughly similar in Norway and the Netherlands regarding underlying ideas as well as timing. In occasion of this convergence this article tackles the discursive and performative construction of “societal impact” as a metamorphic constantly changing, transforming, and evolving criterion. Using data from policy documents from the UK, the Netherlands, and Norway from 2014 until now, the comparative semantic analysis draws on theories of speech acts and performativity to reveal the dual effect (normalising and norming) of the discursive device by R&I policymakers. The resulting typology, based on four criteria (terminology, positive and negative valences, oikonomia of knowledge and policy slogan), sets the ground for the exploration of further dimensions of societal impact evaluation challenges.

Full text
Abstract:
Business failure is a natural part of the development lifecycle. In a healthy economy, the formations and dissolutions of small firms drive innovation through the process of creative destruction. However, an excessive level of involuntary closures lowers both economic mobility and community social capital. We partnered with the North Carolina Secretary of State’s Office (NCSOS) to identify factors that might be driving involuntary firm closures using administrative data. This analysis outlines our recommendation to use an exploratory open-ended survey instrument which targets dissolved firm owners. We believe the methodology is indicated due to the inherent challenges of getting survey data from this population. With a relatively small number of responses, an open-ended survey would allow for a hybrid-thematic analysis framework which combines a data-driven inductive approach with a deductive theoretical (a priori) template of codes. Our recommended analysis lens complements phenomenological qualitative inquiry by connecting the respondent’s open-ended answers to theories in the business failure literature.

Full text
Abstract:
The Child Labour: Action-Research-Innovation in South and South-Eastern Asia (CLARISSA) programme aims to understand the dynamics that are central to running a business in the informal economy of Nepal’s adult entertainment sector, and explore how and why the worst forms of child labour (WFCL) become a feature of business operations. This research paper explores the findings from semi-structured interviews conducted with business owners operating spa and massage parlours, khaja ghars (snack shops), cabin/hostess bars, dance bars, and dohoris (folk-dance bars) in Kathmandu. It explores business owners’ perspectives on the day-to-day running of their businesses; the risks and stressors they face; their aspirations and motivations; and, where possible, their rationale for working with children, and the types of relationships they have with them. In addition to generating business-level evidence, the research provided evidence on a series of three business owner-led Action Research Groups, which began in February 2022 and continued until September 2023. These groups have generated theories of change, and will test and evaluate solutions to shift the system away from WFCL.

Designing Contribution Analysis of Participatory Programming to Tackle the Worst Forms of Child Labour. Institute of Development Studies, August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/clarissa.2022.003.

Full text
Abstract:
This Research and Evidence Paper presents the theory-based and participatory evaluation design of the Child Labour: Action-Research- Innovation in South and South-Eastern Asia (CLARISSA) programme. The evaluation is embedded in emergent Participatory Action Research with children and other stakeholders to address the drivers of the worst forms of child labour (WFCL). The report describes the use of contribution analysis as an overarching approach, with its emphasis on crafting, nesting and iteratively reflecting on causal theories of change. It illustrates how hierarchically-nested impact pathways lead to specific evaluation questions and mixing different evaluation methods in response to these questions, critical assumptions, and agreement on causal mechanisms to be examined in depth. It also illustrates how realist evaluation can be combined with contribution analysis to deeply investigate specific causal links in the theory of change. It reflects on learning from the use of causal hotspots as a vehicle for mixing methods. It offers considerations on how to navigate relationships and operational trade-offs in making methodological choices to build robust and credible evidence on how, for whom, and under what conditions participatory programming can work to address complex problems such as child labour.
