Abstract:Reverse logistics can provide a sustainable competitive advantage for the company. However, to benefit from it, companies must monitor their reverse logistics based on a performance measurement system composed of financial and non-financial indicators. Thus, this study investigated, through a systematic literature review, the ways of measuring the of reverse logistics performance. The results of this study showed that the most used indicators were the financial and/or economic performance, together with the indicators related to the clients, followed by the indicators related to the improvement of internal, environmental, innovation and growth, social and, finally, supplier processes. It should be emphasized that there is no single justification on the best measures of performance evaluation of an activity. Therefore, each company must establish the measures appropriate to its characteristics, in order to meet the company goals.

Experiences in social innovation point to a collaborative work, in which several types of players connect in a network to seek solutions to the problems inherent in the less favored population. In this sense, the aim of this paper is to identify the constituent elements of collaboration networks for social innovation in the context of social incubators. This study used a qualitative, descriptive research approach and case study method. Data were collected through document analysis and semi-structured interviews. Based on the thematic analysis of the primary data, it was concluded that the constituent elements of collaboration networks for social innovation in social incubators are: partnerships (networks of players and different types of partnerships); collaboration (mutual help, commitment and trust); self-management (shared leadership, joint decision-making and shared processes); empowerment (recognition and construction of identity); resources (financial, material and human); learning (training, lectures and sharing of experiences); and sustainability (economic, social and environmental

AbstractThis article aims to describe the situation of scientific production theme methodologies of innovation projects management. Therefore, we collected data from the articles avaiable in the international electronic scientific basis Scopus. To this end, we sought to identify which dimensions of analysis scientific publications focus and identify key aspects of the references. It was possible to see that the theme surveyed date back from the 90s and since then there is a considerable rise. Among the results, it appears that the theme is interdisciplinary as publications include twelve areas of knowledge.
