Scaling in social entrepreneurship : partnerships, knowledge transfer, and business models / Scale-up et entrepreneuriat social : partenariat, transfert des innovations et modèles de gestionChowdhury, Imran 02 July 2012 (has links)
L‟étude présentée ici tente d‟ouvrir une voie intermédiaire en s‟attachant au processus de transfert d‟innovation entre entrepreneurs sociaux. Nous appuyant sur la littérature sur la stratégie de transfert d‟innovation, qui cherche à développer une perspective globale des stratégies variées utilisées par les entreprises pour transférer des innovations efficacement, nous étudions ce processus de transfert dans un contexte d‟entrepreneuriat social, où l‟équilibre entre objectifs d‟efficience et objectifs sociaux plus larges est explicitement plus grand (Pache et Santos, 2010). Nous mettons ainsi en lumière le fait que certains organismes qui apparaissent et opèrent dans des contextes d‟échec simultané des marchés et des gouvernements axent leurs activités sur la création de valeur. S‟il est vrai que le transfert d‟innovation a le potentiel d‟ajouter de la valeur à toutes les entreprises, les divergences dans les objectifs organisationnels et les identités de celles-ci peuvent aboutir à des processus de transfert très différents, au fur et à mesure que l‟on passe de l‟entrepreneuriat commercial traditionnel à l‟entrepreneuriat social. Les travaux de recherche récents sur l‟entrepreneuriat social se sont centrés sur le besoin qu‟ont ces entrepreneurs d‟augmenter leur impact social en développant d‟avantage leurs opérations réussies (Bloom et Chatterji, 2009), mais le processus de transfert d‟innovations comme stratégie pour augmenter cet impact est mal connu. D‟autre part, la recherche sur le transfert d‟innovation ne s‟est quasiment pas penchée sur cette question, parce- qu‟elle n‟a pas envisagé comment des entrepreneurs qui veulent créer, et non capter, de la valeur s‟engagent dans le processus de transfert. L‟objectif de ce travail est d‟étudier comment les entrepreneurs sociaux gèrent le transfert d‟innovations et s‟organisent pour augmenter l‟impact de leurs innovations. Le sujet ne se limite donc pas aux mécanismes et aux résultats d‟un transfert, comme dans les études précédentes. Les questions posées ici ont pour but de comprendre comment les motivations des entrepreneurs sociaux, que l‟on considère comme différentes de celles des entrepreneurs plus traditionnels, influencent la façon dont se déroule le transfert d‟innovation. Pour ce faire, nous procédons d‟abord au réexamen des objectifs, du contexte, et du périmètre du transfert d‟innovations dans le cas d‟entreprises sociales. / The purpose of this dissertation is to deepen the study of social entrepreneurship by examining how social entrepreneurs use partnerships and organize themselves to transfer knowledge. My research takes a first step towards building a theory of innovation transfer and scaling for social entrepreneurship. This study builds on three primary foundations. One is the literature on innovation transfer strategy, which seeks to develop a broad view of the various strategies used by firms to transfer innovations effectively. The second is the literature on social entrepreneurship, which highlights the value-creation focus of certain firms that emerge and operate where situations of simultaneous market and government failure exist. Third, I use the literature on institutions, in particular institutional logics, to explain how organizational processes impacted by multiple logics unfold. Using an inductive, multiple-case methodology, I illuminate the innovation transfer process as it relates to social entrepreneurs. My objective is threefold. First, I aim to understand how social entrepreneurs manage the innovation transfer process. Second, I wan to identify the crucial factors influencing innovation transfer between social entrepreneurs, distinguish these factors from those observed in more traditional settings, and examine their impact on the direction of the innovation transfer process. Third, and finally, I hope to offer possible alternative views to the discussion on “scaling” in the social sector, a debate which has, to date, focused on “scaling organizations” as the primary means to expand the scope and reach of innovations developed by social entrepreneurs.

Orchestrating Innovation in the Multinational Enterprise : Headquarters Involvement in Innovation Transfer ProjectsDellestrand, Henrik January 2010 (has links)
In the past several decades research has emphasized innovation development and transfer as key issues when investigating the multinational enterprise (MNE). This thesis focuses on the question of what factors make headquarters involve itself in innovation transfer projects taking place between a sending and a receiving subsidiary within the MNE. This relates to headquarters active participation and role in the organization of resources (structure) and flows (processes) within the MNE. Using a database covering 169 innovation transfer projects the empirical analysis reveals that distances influence headquarters involvement, albeit in different directions. Systematic differences based on subsidiary and innovation characteristics and headquarters involvement is found. Not only subsidiary characteristics are of importance for headquarters involvement, but also the embeddedness of the subsidiary hosting the innovation transfer project. More specifically, physical and cultural distance between the sending and receiving subsidiaries influence headquarters involvement in the transfer negatively, whereas linguistic and economic distance between the subsidiaries conducting the transfer have a positive influence on headquarters involvement in innovation transfer. Looking more closely at the innovations subject to transfer the results suggests that innovations perceived as complex and important are favored for headquarters support. The same is true for innovations that are related to the core business of the subsidiary. At a subsidiary level, powerful subsidiaries initially receive more of headquarters support, but as subsidiary power increase, headquarters becomes less involved, i.e., a curvilinear effect of power is found. Acquired subsidiaries tend to become favored for headquarters involvement in transfer relative to greenfield subsidiaries. Finally, the results indicate that headquarters involves itself in transfer projects when the subsidiaries hosting the transfer projects have been relationally embedded during the innovation development phase. Theoretically, headquarters involvement can be conceptualized as orchestration of innovations within the MNE, and as a form of resource allocation. Thus, this thesis contributes to the understanding of what influences intra-MNE resource allocation, as well as what factors capture the attention of headquarters leading to innovation orchestration. Headquarters involvement in innovation transfer has implications for setting subsidiaries on evolutionary trajectories.

Spolupráce veřejného a soukromého sektoru na výzkumu a vývoji v rámci regionálních inovačních systémů. / Public-private collaboration in research and development in the framework of regional innovation systems.Deďo, Peter January 2021 (has links)
The present thesis discusses the topic of public-private collaboration in research and development in Czech regions. A bibliometric keyword analysis was used in this elaboration, based on which a theoretical framework of the thesis was compiled, presenting the most important theoretical concepts related to the interaction of private companies with universities and research institutes. The thesis has two main objectives, based on which it aims to reveal the nature of the size of partial subsystems of regional innovation systems in Czech NUTS 3 regions in relation to economic and innovation performance and to confront the thesis on the link between the innovation performance of regions and the degree of interconnectedness of subsystems on data of collaborative projects in Czechia. The conducted analyses showed a negative dependence of the size of the private R&D segment and innovation performance. It turned out that in the conditions of Czechia the statement that developed regions with a developed innovation system show a larger relative representation of the private segment is not valid. The second finding supports the thesis of a correlation between the intensity of collaboration between research institutions and firms and their innovation performance. Keywords: regional innovation systems,...
