Understanding eco-innovation in the Hungarian wine sector

PurposeA growing body of literature analyzes eco-innovation in the wine industry, specifically focusing on the internal and external factors that contribute to sustainable innovation in wineries. The purpose of this study is to classify wineries according to their eco-innovation strategy and investigate variations in innovation groups concerning networking and socio-demographic characteristics.Design/methodology/approachThe authors use an original firm-level survey conducted between June 2022 and January 2023 to study eco-innovation practices of 234 Hungarian winemakers using four groups of indicators: marketing, organizational, process and product innovations. The authors apply principal component analysis and cluster analysis to identify eco-innovation dimensions and group wineries. The authors also investigate the relationship between eco-innovation strategies, determinants and firm-specific characteristics.FindingsThe estimations identify two innovation modes: with Cluster 1 (characterized by innovative wineries) surpassing Cluster 2 (comprising less innovative wineries) in all aspects. Marketing and process innovations were more widespread than product and organizational innovations. The results confirm the importance of firm and manager characteristics, corporate organization and size, age and education of management influence innovation activity.Research limitations/implicationsThe cross-sectional nature of the survey provides a snapshot of the wine industry. To identify changing trends, it is beneficial to conduct follow-up research and ongoing monitoring for a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of eco-innovation over time. The study offers valuable information about the Hungarian wine sector, but generalization of results to other geographic areas or wine-producing regions should be careful. The unique characteristics of particular regions might have a different effect on the dynamics of eco-innovation. Comparative studies across different wine regions or countries may reveal regional variations in eco-innovation strategies and the impact of local contexts.Practical implicationsThe study highlights the priority of human elements, such as the commitment of owners and managers to sustainability in driving force for innovation. The ability of businesses to absorb new knowledge and the exchange of information within organizations is crucial in promoting innovation. Considering the results of the survey, managers should proactively strive to improve knowledge transfer and information sharing within their organizations and establish cooperative alliances with universities, research institutes, suppliers, industry bodies and associations and global consultancy firms. Such knowledge-based cooperation can counterweight the innovative inertia of the micro and small enterprises representing the Hungarian wine sector.Social implicationsTo address the issue of “innovative inertia” faced by micro and small businesses in the wine sector, policymakers may implement focused supports, such as educational initiatives and grants, to augment their understanding and promote sustainable innovation. They should initiate intra- and inter-cluster connections and cooperations. Incentives, such as tax reduction or financial support, may stimulate wineries to introduce eco-innovation practices. Policymakers could also streamline the process of obtaining funding or grants for wineries interested in investing in cutting-edge solutions, such as renewable energy or advanced cultivation technologies to accelerate the adoption of sustainable practices.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the eco-innovation literature by providing insights into the drivers and practices of wineries in Hungary. The results emphasize the significance of networking, sharing of knowledge and firm/manager-specific characteristics in influencing eco-innovation in the wine industry.

A systematic review of cognitive behavioral and mindfulness‐based interventions for white‐collar worker mental well‐being in business environments

AbstractThere is a need to better understand what works, for whom, and in what circumstances, in the context of workplace mental well‐being. Among the various interventions used within business settings for employee mental well‐being, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness are two of the most studied empirically. To‐date, there have been no systematic reviews of this specific literature, meaning we presently lack clarity with regard to overall findings and reliability. The purpose of this paper is to provide a refined summary of the interventions, measures, and outcomes, to inform future research and support decision making within corporate organizations. A search of APAPsycArticles, APAPsycINFO, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases from the start of records to June 2024, supplemented by reference list reviews and Google Scholar searches, retrieved 16,018 papers. English language experimental studies of CBT and/or mindfulness interventions for white‐collar private sector employees were eligible. Following duplicate removal and title and abstract reviews, 99 manuscripts were read in full, with 37 papers selected. Seventeen studies delivered CBT and 20 delivered mindfulness. There were 19 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 8 controlled clinical trials, and 7 single cohort trials. Interventions were delivered in‐person, online and via telephone. Both CBT and mindfulness were associated with improvements in employee mental well‐being, with the evidence for mindfulness more robust. Online interventions typically saw higher rates of participant attrition. We conclude that both CBT and mindfulness can improve mental well‐being among private sector white‐collar employees. However, this finding is not unequivocal. More RCTs would enhance the literature.

Engaging with startups through corporate accelerators: the case of H‐FARM's White Label Accelerator

Corporate accelerators have emerged in recent years as an innovation mechanism that builds bridges between corporations and startups. Through inbound Open Innovation (OI) activities, established firms open their innovation processes to startups to acquire their knowledge. Previous research has focused either on independent accelerators or on corporate accelerator programs that an established firm operates internally. The literature on how accelerators orchestrate different OI practices is sparse, yet large corporations are forging ahead with corporate accelerators. Furthermore, new corporate accelerator models have emerged, rendering the corporate accelerator phenomenon more heterogenous. In this paper, adopting an OI lens, we explore the White Label Accelerator (WLA), a recent model in which an independent accelerator manages the program on behalf of a single corporate organization. Through an in‐depth case study of Technogym Wellness Accelerator, a pioneer and most important WLA in Italy set up by H‐Farm on behalf of Technogym, a large fitness and wellness company, we investigate how such accelerators function as an OI tool. We found four key dimensions that enable successful outcomes. In particular, the importance of entrepreneurial alertness as a key driver for the effective exploitation of intellectual property represents a significant finding. Our research contributes to OI and entrepreneurial finance literature and provides insightful managerial implications to corporate accelerator stakeholders and startups' managers.

一般論文] 한성도서주식회사의 출판활동과 식민지 책시장의 역학

This article is an attempt to consider how much freedom of publishing the colonial publishing organization was able to have under the structural pressure exerted by the colonial book market. For this purpose, this article focused on Hanseongdoseo Co., Ltd. Hansungdoseo Co., Ltd. was the first publishing organization founded as a corporate organization. However, the structural pressure on the book market gradually increased due to various external factors such as the censorship of the Japanese Government-General of Korea, the disallowance of reservation publishing, imperialism of knowledge culture, material shortages, and the policy of eradicating the Korean language. The literary centralism of Chosun language books, which reached its peak in the late 1930s, was the result. Hansungdoseo Co., Ltd. was also not free from that pressure. However, Hansungdoseo Co., Ltd. tried to adhere to its own consistent publishing policy. In short, the uniqueness of Hanseongdoseo Co., Ltd.’s publishing activities, and furthermore, the freedom of publishing pursued by the colonial publishing organization, must first be found in the fact that literature was not completely brought to the fore during the period of literary centralism of Chosun language books.

Strategic Integration of AI in Higher Education and Industry: The AI8-Point Model

The AI8-Point Model, derived from extensive experience in technology, AI, and higher education administration, addresses the critical need for cost-effective, high-impact strategies tailored to higher education. Despite the transformative potential of AI in enhancing student engagement, optimizing processes, and improving educational outcomes, institutions often struggle with practical implementation. The AI8-Point Model fills this gap by offering strategies that balance cost and impact. Visualized as a circle divided into four quadrants, the model encompasses phases of student engagement and institutional interaction: pre-enrollment beyond institutional control, pre-enrollment within institutional control, post-enrollment within institutional control, and post-enrollment beyond institutional control. Each quadrant contains specific markers for data collection, strategic planning, and outcome tracking, addressing student aptitude, motivation, marketing strategies, enrollment processes, academic support, faculty development, lifelong learning, and employment outcomes. Integrating methodologies from educational research, business strategy, and technology management, the model is grounded in empirical evidence and personal experience, emphasizing a low-cost, high-value approach to AI applications. This comprehensive framework enables institutions to align initiatives with goals, optimize resource allocation, and track progress effectively, fostering a holistic approach to student success and institutional growth. Additionally, the model’s adaptability extends its value to non-profit and corporate organizations, offering a versatile tool for enhancing strategic initiatives across various sectors.

PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION SECURITY BREACH INCIDENTS: SHORT-TERM STOCK MARKET REACTION ON INDIAN LISTED FIRMS

ABSTRACT Data breach incidents are growing by the day and firms struggle to detect, defend, and respond to such breaches. Nowadays, security breaches are considered one of the major concerns for corporate organizations around the world. Hence, it is essential to assess the impact of such breaches on organizations. This article reports stock price reaction due to public disclosure of information security breach (ISB) incidents on publicly traded firms of India. Using the event study methodology on a sample of 120 publicly announced ISB incidents between January 2004 and April 2019 pertaining to 69 publicly listed firms of India, we found that exposure to an ISB incident exacerbates negative stock price reactions based on both one-factor market model and Fama-French three-factor model. On average, breached firms lost 0.55% of their market value within two days post the announcement of ISB incidents. Further, we found some factors that significantly negatively impacted Cumulative Abnormal Return (CAR). Important emerging factors such as type of compromised data, sentiment, subjectivity, and remedial strategy significantly impact CAR. According to our study findings, we suggest that firms should mention remedial measures in terms of apology and/or compensation in the ISB disclosure. Furthermore, the result indicates that investors penalize listed firms for subsequent ISB incidents. Thus, our findings may guide Chief Information Officers (CIOs), information security managers, and IT managers of publicly traded firms to devise various strategies in terms of IT security measures and content of the ISB disclosure.

SSCM: a secured approach to supply chain management with control management using blowfish optimization

ABSTRACT This study examines the importance of enterprise information systems that link several corporate organisations to share information about diverse products under high security settings. The primary goal of the proposed strategy is to create a direct link between product demand and production to minimise the impact of rising costs. The research motive to make a connection cannot be resolved without suitable data that shows both quantity and quality in each organisation unit. The suggested method is designed to deliver accurate data to authorised end users while preventing any data exposure to unauthorised users. Security cryptographic keys are utilised to create a data control method, and the blowfish algorithm is integrated with the projected system model to segregate data blocks for enterprise systems. Four scenarios are considered where the results show that by using the integrated model, it is feasible to increase the number of authorisation units to 88%, compared to the 75% attained with the current approach.
