“…We found that most authors relate their studies to the TOE framework as it provides a technological, organizational and environmental view. As stated by (Ranke et al, 2020), there is still a lack of knowledge about the different types of SMEs and what they need to develop digitally. Despite the large amount of literature available on digital transformation, there is still less research on the factors of digital transformation that correlate with SMEs.…”

Today, more and more people are using smartphones and internet services. Modern society is advancing rapidly technologically, where new possibilities for the use of smart devices are opening up. The paper discusses a project to develop hardware and software for mobile blinds management. The purpose of the research was to develop a prototype Wi-Fi system for mobile blinds management. In the laboratory at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences, we established an interdisciplinary team of collaborators who developed a prototype of hardware and software. The mobile app is reliable, secure and user-friendly. In addition to the mobile app itself, we can determine several locations of our blinds, where the current weather forecast is displayed. With the help of the controller, we can amplify the signal of the home Wi-Fi network. No additional control units or hubs are required for the system to operate.

The four decades of the International Scientific Conference on the Development of Organizational Sciences are a period that brought together the academic and professional public, students, esteemed guests. The time and space are fundamental components of human life. The time of the epidemic introduces uncertainty among the people. That is why the individual of today together with the whole society, can set the building blocks for the social interweaving of society, as we are used to. We are an organization of people. Relationships between employees in organizations are the starting point for guidelines for the development of organizational sciences. This year’s conference is entitled “Values, Competencies and Changes in Organizations”. We’ll focus on the individual and the organization, which with common values co-create the integration and progress of the society. An individual who’ll cope with changes in the organizational view and the wider society with the proper competence frame. Precisely because of the many changes that have befallen us as a society, the international conference calls for the exchange of views, opinions and, above all, scientific views on the development of organizations in the future. They will definitely be people. There will also be information and processes. All that binds and connects us for decades and will unite us in the common fight against today’s epidemiological situation. The challenge is not as great as our ideas and views for the organization and society of tomorrow.

“…SMEs usually seek help and support from research institutes. In order to facilitate this process and create more efficient collaborations, the characteristics of the SMEs can be clustered and analyzed to promote the right research center [50]. Better results are achieved as the research centers understand the characteristics and potential of SMEs and their needs and support them accordingly [50].…”

Better results are achieved as the research centers understand the characteristics and potential of SMEs and their needs and support them accordingly [50]. However, it would be helpful to determine how the firms operate under such conditions and, more specifically, how the firms can absorb and exploit what the research centers offer.…”

Introducing Research Loop to Achieve Open Innovation for Research Centers in Quintuple Helix

et al. 2022

Open Innovation has great significance and so far several definitions have been proposed, the most widely accepted definition referring to the correlation of Open Innovation with research organizations. Helix models have been proposed to analyze how collaborations work among key stakeholders and research centers and they were found to have a prominent part in all their iterations. This work presents the challenges that research organizations face in terms of interaction with other organizations, their operations (resources, funding issues), and how they determine the research directions to be followed, and analyzes how the adoption of Open Innovation practices can tackle these challenges and the effects it has. The Open Innovation practices of outsourcing and co-creation are mentioned, with the latter needing to be further developed and elaborated. We propose a novel process, called Research Loop, which aims and succeeds to provide Open Innovation for research organizations. It achieves to involve several different organizations, identify existing research gaps, and produce new knowledge. The proposed process includes the various advantages of applying Open Innovation to the analyzed research centers.
