“…• Intermediation: in contrast to findings in recent literature (De Silva et al, 2017;Thomas et al, 2017), where intermediaries are external agents providing services for inter-organizational R&D projects, our research showed relationships intermediated by other departments of the firms. Relationships with external partners were not directly connected to R&D staff: relationships with suppliers occur through supply/purchasing departments in both firms.…”

“…Open innovation points to the emergence of intermediaries of relationships that are non-existent in closed innovation or have irrelevant roles (De Silva et al, 2017;Howells, 2006;Thomas et al, 2017). Innovation brokers allow firms to transact, at stages previously conducted within the firm, by connecting those seeking solutions with a rather large number of potential knowledge suppliers (Kock & Gözübüyük, 2011).…”

The author highlights the scholarly contribution of the study and provides general recommendations for innovation managers.Finally, Flavia Luciane Scherer, Italo Fernando Minello, Cristiane Krüger, and Andréa Bach Rizzatti from the Federal University of Santa Maria in Brazil describe a technology startup's failed early attempt at internationalization and the lessons its founders are applying as they contemplate a second attempt to grow beyond the Brazilian market. Drawing on the literature on internationalization (especially the Uppsala model), export barriers, and the origin and concept of startups, the authors share insights from the case and derive recommendations to help technology startups in emerging economies successfully internationalize.In April, we will examine the theme of Frugal Innovation with Guest Editors Deepak S.

“…Sustainable human resources development and knowledge sharing as part of relationship capital [83] enables companies to manage their adaptation to Industry 4.0 [84][85][86] and grant them the "how to do" expertise in this process. Openness towards external knowledge sources [87] and partnerships [88] in training enables firms to access the knowledge in developing appropriate procedures and solutions required for Industry 4.0 transition. Also, according to the research by Götz and Jankowska [89], these challenges will drive companies to assure network embeddedness and to collaborate, share risks, and jointly learn.…”

External Partnerships in Employee Education and Development as the Key to Facing Industry 4.0 Challenges

et al. 2019

The new challenges that will currently affect the existence and sustainability of businesses stem from the dramatic changes that come from the fourth industrial revolution. Based on the concept of intellectual capital management as a resource-based strategic management approach, which leads to the management of structural, human, and relational capital, sustainable human resource management underlines the involvement of partnerships and external relations in learning and personal development processes. Industry 4.0 expects major changes in human resource management and processes such as education. Organizations will benefit from the new knowledge in the near future that will need to be brought into the internal environment of the organization constantly. However, this will require cooperation with the external environment, and the resulting new education opportunities built on cooperation with external partners, organizations, and educational institutions. Innovations as essential factors in adapting to major changes in the environment will be key in all organizational processes, including educational. This paper focuses on comparing highly innovative countries and less innovative countries in Central Europe, analyzing 1482 businesses by looking at differences in attitude towards employee education and individual forms of employee education. The main statistically significant difference is in the strategic approach to employee education and development and the set-up between innovative countries and moderate innovators.
