The Plantain chain (<em>Musa AAB</em>) in Caldas: consolidated governance processes

Plantain cultivation is of great importance for the country´s food security and sovereignty. In Colombia, about 87 % of the established area is associated crop and 13 % as monoculture; It is one of the subsectors that generates the highest income and employment, in 2022 960,000 direct and indirect jobs were reported. In the Caldas department, plantain is cultivated in all municipalities, its value chain, its main actors, flows, synergies, and governance spaces around this productive system were analyzed. For this purpose, a mapping of local actors was used with a Social Network Analysis, a description of the de facto banana value chain and it was analyzed under the Governance Analytical Framework. There is evidence of a productive system with well differentiated areas in terms of technological development, integration of chain links, articulation of institutions, organizational processes, access to national and international markets, and agro-industrial transformation processes. The articulation and cooperation between inter-institutional actors have been critical for development of collective actions to optimize resources, time, processes, and maximize the generated impact. The Caldas roundtables competitiveness emerge and position themselves as a consolidated space for territorial governance, which in turn catalyzes articulation dynamics and institutional interventions to enhance the resources of value chains and territories.

Startup category membership and boundary expansion in the field of artificial intelligence

PurposeAn important but neglected area of investigation in digital entrepreneurship is the combined role of both core and peripheral members of an emerging technological field in shaping the symbolic and social boundaries of the field. This is a serious gap as both categories of members play a distinct role in expanding the pool of resources of the field. I address this gap by exploring how membership category is related to funding decisions in the emerging field of artificial intelligence (AI).Design/methodology/approachThe first quantitative study involved a sample of 1,315 AI-based startups which were founded in the period of 2011–2018 in the United States. In the second qualitative study, the author interviewed 32 members of the field (core members, peripheral members and investors) to define the boundaries of their respective role in shaping the social boundaries of the AI field.FindingsThe author finds that core members in the newly founded field of AI were more successful at attracting funding from investors than peripheral members and that size of the founding team, number of lead investors, number of patents and CEO approval were positively related to funding. In the second qualitative study, the author interviewed 30 members of the field (core members, peripheral members and investors) to define their respective role in shaping the social boundaries of the AI field.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is one of the first to build on the growing literature in emerging organizational fields to bring empirical evidence that investors adapt their funding strategy to membership categories (core and peripheral members) of a new technological field in their resource allocation decisions. Furthermore, I find that core and peripheral members claim distinct roles in their participation and contribution to the field in terms of technological developments, and that although core members attract more resources than peripheral members, both actors play a significant role in expanding the field’s social boundaries.Practical implicationsCore AI entrepreneurs who wish to attract funding may consider operating in fewer categories in order to be perceived as core members of the field, and thus focus their activities and limited resources to build internal AI capabilities. Entrepreneurs may invest early in filing a patent to signal their in-house AI capabilities to investors.Social implicationsThe social boundaries of an emerging technological field are shaped by a multitude of actors and not only the core members of the field. The author should pay attention to the role of each category of actors and build on their contributions to expand a promising field.Originality/valueThis paper is among the first to build on the growing literature in emerging organizational fields to study the resource acquisition strategies of entrepreneurs in a newly establishing technological field.

Unlocking the value of innovative medicines: Insights from the advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMP) innovation systems in Germany and Sweden

ObjectivesGenerally low uptake in the advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMP) market and difficult patient access has been observed across Europe. The objective is to analyze the key challenges of the ATMP innovation ecosystem around R&D, entrepreneurial activities, framework conditions and legitimacy and to highlight how national level activities can impact on patient access to ATMPs in Sweden and Germany. MethodsAn exploratory case studies approach was applied for analyzing ATMP development and uptake in Sweden and Germany between 2010 and 2021. A mixed methods and multi-level approach was used to collect data, including desktop research and 17 expert interviews. ResultsGermany is performing well and apart from better patients' engagement has lower barriers for ATMP development and diffusion compared to Sweden. The main hindrances in Sweden include a lack of collaboration between stakeholders in translational research, conservative HTA assessment and lack of innovative payment models. Both countries could benefit from better streamlined regulation on different aspects around clinical trials (i.e. ranging from legislation on genetically modified organisms for gene therapy medicinal products and master file approach for raw materials). ConclusionsDespite a number of hindrances around ATMP development and uptake, the evidence in terms of technological development on the one side and unmet patient needs on the other side, shows that ATMPs will play an important role in the future of modern healthcare systems. It is clear that further national level collaboration between academic, clinical and industrial players is necessary to overcome the existing hindrances and boost further development of ATMPs in Europe.

Optimization of Hemodynamic Monitoring System of Heart Rate using Cardiac Sensor

The principles of hemodynamic monitoring have not yet altered in terms of technological development in recent years. The main goal of hemodynamic monitoring system is targeted for critically ill patients’ remains to be an accurate assessment of the systemic circulation and its response to tissue oxygen requirements. The problem due to heart failure caused by a different disease that harms the activity of the heart and hemodynamic circulatory system. It comprises cardiomyopathy, heart disease, a high blood pressure, heart inflammation, and increased heart rate. In present research an attempt was made for hemodynamic monitoring of heart rate by using fabricated cardiac sensor which provide to detect abnormal physiology and take action before the problem starts, such as the cases of organ failure and death arise. The most popular invasive hemodynamic monitoring system is arterial pulse-wave analysis, pulmonary artery catheters, but also central venous catheters. It finds that monitoring of the patient's cardiac output, Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP), volume status, and tissue oxygen absorption may be necessary in certain critical cases. It concludes that as medical knowledge of a patient's critical disease is improved, their capacity to monitor and treat efficiently will increase with help of hemodynamic monitoring. In future, On the basis of large data, the advent of artificial intelligence and machine learning may enable predictive analyses of hemodynamic issues before they really arise.

See You in Your Backyard: Multipoint Contact, Firm’s Capacity and Capability, and Technological Expansion

Past studies of multipoint competition have mainly focused on the effect of multipoint contact in product markets on firm competitive behaviors in those markets only. Our study advances this literature by examining how multipoint contact in product markets affects a firm’s expansion into a rival’s technological areas. We further investigate the factors that moderate the proposed effect. Our analyses suggest that the degree of multipoint contact between a firm and a rival in product markets has an inverted U-shaped relationship with the degree of the firm’s expansion into the rival’s technological areas (patent classes). Furthermore, the firm’s capacity (market share) and capability (status in terms of technological development) relative to the rival’s have different moderating effects on the relationship between multipoint contact in product markets and the firm’s expansion into the rival’s technological areas. Our findings contribute to the literatures on multipoint contact, competitive dynamics, and firm technology strategies.

Stay the Course? The Effects of Government Matching R&D Funding on Tech Startups

Governments have provided significant R&D funding for startups that are significant sources of innovation. The literature that examines the efficacy of R&D funding programs has found mixed results, likely due to program design and implementation issues. In this paper, we examine a special matching R&D subsidy program for startups in which the government provides a substantial amount of matching R&D funds to the awardees of private VCs. Using both secrecy and hand-collected data, we examine the effects of a government matching R&D subsidy to startups’ subsequent investment and innovation. With a regression discontinuity, we find that startups funded by TIPS obtain more patents and subsequent investments than startups not supported by the program. It implies the effectiveness of this program can be increased by imposing the recipient selection system to the private sector. Our study also reveals that TIPS awardees tend to maintain their overall business model while adjusting their strategies in terms of technology development, new technology adoption, and HRM practices.

Process Variability in Top-Down Fabrication of Silicon Nanowire-Based Biosensor Arrays.

Silicon nanowire field-effect transistors (SiNW-FET) have been studied as ultra-high sensitive sensors for the detection of biomolecules, metal ions, gas molecules and as an interface for biological systems due to their remarkable electronic properties. “Bottom-up” or “top-down” approaches that are used for the fabrication of SiNW-FET sensors have their respective limitations in terms of technology development. The “bottom-up” approach allows the synthesis of silicon nanowires (SiNW) in the range from a few nm to hundreds of nm in diameter. However, it is technologically challenging to realize reproducible bottom-up devices on a large scale for clinical biosensing applications. The top-down approach involves state-of-the-art lithography and nanofabrication techniques to cast SiNW down to a few 10s of nanometers in diameter out of high-quality Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) wafers in a controlled environment, enabling the large-scale fabrication of sensors for a myriad of applications. The possibility of their wafer-scale integration in standard semiconductor processes makes SiNW-FETs one of the most promising candidates for the next generation of biosensor platforms for applications in healthcare and medicine. Although advanced fabrication techniques are employed for fabricating SiNW, the sensor-to-sensor variation in the fabrication processes is one of the limiting factors for a large-scale production towards commercial applications. To provide a detailed overview of the technical aspects responsible for this sensor-to-sensor variation, we critically review and discuss the fundamental aspects that could lead to such a sensor-to-sensor variation, focusing on fabrication parameters and processes described in the state-of-the-art literature. Furthermore, we discuss the impact of functionalization aspects, surface modification, and system integration of the SiNW-FET biosensors on post-fabrication-induced sensor-to-sensor variations for biosensing experiments.
