Research and Innovation Practices: Cooperation and Collaborations in Scientific and Entrepreneurial Contexts
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
In this Topic, we particularly want to add value to the field in the following ways:
- Bringing together dimensions of innovation that have usually been studied separately (e.g., the study of technology together with the social dimension of interaction in small groups or processes);
- Fully incorporating the body of knowledge produced in the international cluster within the same theoretical and methodological framework;
- Examining the impact of the digital turn in technology on real work settings and its outcomes for social policy, including issues of environmental sustainability as political–legal priorities for action;
- Identifying good practices in scientific collaborations;
- Mapping the scientific and entrepreneurial network.
