“…At its foundation, innovation refers to a systematic generation and promotion of new ideas, and the implementation of these ideas into new products, processes or services within organisations (Kogabayev & Maziliauskas 2017). According to Nambisan et al (2017), innovation leads to a dynamic transformation that accelerates growth towards the innovative business enterprise and national economy.…”

Background: Organisations must respond quickly and consistently to ongoing global shifts. This streak separates remaining competitive from losing market share. Globalisation has accounted for the majority of this transformation, which has been reinforced by rapid digital transformation. Industry experts and researchers are continually studying effective remedies to this worldwide transition as part of their response to this drive. This is required because the world is changing unavoidably, and effective responses to the change should be investigated.Objectives: To study the relationship between Agile and innovation, and how this relationship might facilitate organisations’ reaction to global changes, in response to the battle of how to adapt to global transformations successfully.Method: A systematic literature review analysing 1645 peer-reviewed journals through the use of social network analysis.Results: The terms ‘Agile,’ ‘digital transformation’, ‘design thinking’, ‘agility’, ‘innovation management’, ‘lean’, ‘Industry 4.0’, ‘Agile development’ and ‘digital innovation’ have the strongest links to ‘innovation’. This demonstrates how innovation is reliant on Agile and its characteristics. Furthermore, the computed data clusters from the analysed dataset led to five propositions: (1) Agility sustains innovation strategies (P1). (2) Collaborating Agile methodology with digital innovation leads to competitive advantage (P2). (3) Agile development accelerates or facilitates new business models, such as Industry 4.0 (P3). (4) Design thinking creates value in innovation management or development of new product (P4). Lastly, (5) the concept or theory of lean Agile management (P5).Conclusion: The correlation between Agile and innovation is critical for effective responses to global digital transformations that are ongoing.

“…In general, the concept of innovation a rather complex and multifaceted, his study is the subject of many scientific studies, however, without a generally accepted definition of innovation in science. There are different approaches to the consideration of the term (Kogabayev et al, 2017) According to the Oslo Manual, the term innovation can signify both activity and the outcome of the activity. The general definition of innovation is as follows: "An innovation is a new or improved product or process (or a combination thereof) that differs significantly from the unit's previous products or processes and that has been made available to potential users (product) or brought into use by the unit (process).…”

When the impossible becomes inevitable. The covid-19 has disrupted increasing the speed of changes in the Industry 4.0, highlighting the need to make a paradigm shift from ego-system to eco-system perspective, challenging organizations and citizens to react from their changemakers role. Two crucial needs arise: firstly, the need to innovate to address the tremendous and complex challenges we face and on the other hand, the need to assess and manage our social impacts. Most organizations should redesign their purpose to focus on measuring, monitoring, and reporting not only in financial terms but also taking into account the non-financial performance, especially in terms of sustainability. Some authors names this time, the era of “stakeholders capitalism”. This paper summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific, standardization, and business discussion on understanding how organizations could measure their financial, environmental, and social impacts; how to increase the quality of the sustainability reporting, and deliver the most benefit for their stakeholders. The article analyzes the pathway of Innovating, Evaluating and Reporting the Impact, using the materiality assessment as a driver to create value thanks to disruptive technologies as Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain and the Internet of things. The result of the study can be practically valuable for many stakeholders: the Organizations Management and Boards, Chief Innovation Officers and Teams responsible for Sustainability reporting, Auditors assuring the reliability of sustainable reporting, the Scientifics researching on the topic of Innovation, Impact Assessment, and Sustainability; Public Administrations for addressing the economic, social and environmental challenges, and building trust by ensuring transparency and accountability; Investors and other stakeholders interested on understanding long-term value creation and the social and environmental risk assessment to incentivize sustainable growth.

“…Therefore, when people came to realize that the old ways of doing things no longer work , an interest in the concept of social innovation started. Innovating generally means introducing new products, process or business solutions which are not only new but also extremely distinctive or game changers (Kogabayev & Maziliauskas, 2017). Most of the time, innovation is associated with technological developments.…”

It was a pleasure to attend this year's IDES seminar paper presentations about design, social innovation, and design for social innovation. All the speakers were very interested in their topics -even passionate. We need to be inspired by that kind of passion to ensure that design and social innovation can make a positive mark on the world in these complex times. We may wonder whether we designers can make a difference big enough to turn things around. We may imagine that we can offer only a few small voices in the sea of complexity that threatens to upset our world. In that small classroom, presentation after presentation, it became obvious to me that it's time to pay attention and these students are ready to help us do just that. Thank you for sharing your ideas with us.Gustavo Severo de Borba I had the opportunity to listen to 24 students, with different perspectives, thoughts, and ideas about design and social innovation. I learned a lot with each one of them, about the subject matter, but even more about their interests and passions. The students overcame the obstacles related to writing one of their first papers and presenting something important to them: co-design for people with dementia, mobility, traditional communities, and much more. They did it with passion, trying to show us, in 5 minutes, how critical their perspective is. They shared their ideas, and we heard their voices. We, as professors, need to change the way we connect to students. Learning about all of them is a small step in that direction. Giving voice to students is probably the only way to start this change. Chantal TrudelI was honoured to be invited as a guest panelist in Professor Chiara Del Gaudio's 4th-year undergraduate Industrial Design seminar focused on social innovationthis work is so important for moving upstream, to the front end of discussions on design. The variety of presenters through their papers and public presentations examined a series of topics that fostered momentum in considering underserved and highly complex areas of design such as social capital, public health and wellness, and global or cross-cultural design. The sincerity and personal motivations that came through in their work and the ensuing, engaging discussions give me hope that these are the emerging and exciting areas of sustainable growth in our profession that will be led by this new generation of designers.
