More is not always better—non-linear effects in crowdfunding

2019

Abstract This research focuses on crowdfunding project features and its relation with the success of this project. The main purpose is to improve probability of success of crowdfunding projects. One can argue that “more is always better” resulting in attempts of daily updates. Contrarily, backers may be weary of numerous updates to work through, indicating a possible wear-out effect, implying the existence of an optimal level of updates. Our preliminary results show that previous research, built upon linear modeling, widely ignores important aspects of the relationship between key variables. We therefore picked six key variables that were previously marked as success drivers in crowdfunding…

La mejor estrategia para la jubilación de los autónomos

2014

La jubilación es uno de los retos a los que se enfrentan los ciudadanos y, naturalmente, también los trabajadores autónomos. Las peculiaridades del régimen especial de la Seguridad Social al que están adscritos, como es escoger anualmente su base de cotización, permite que los autónomos puedan diseñar una estrategia que mejore notablemente su pensión de jubilación. En este trabajo se demuestra que esta flexibilidad convierte a la pensión de jubilación de la Seguridad Social en una de las inversiones más rentables y se propone una recomendación para conseguir la mejor pensión, con un coste mínimo o, alternativamente, puede entenderse en el sentido de que se señalan las medidas de política qu…

2015

Cuba, a partir de los anos 90, con una economia dependiente de sus relaciones economicas externas, dedica recursos importantes a la construccion de nuevas instalaciones turisticas y a la renovacion de estructuras historicas para el uso del sector turistico. La crisis economica que afecta al pais, provocada por el cambio profundo en las relaciones internacionales, a raiz de la desaparicion del campo socialista y el recrudecimiento del bloqueo norteamericano, llevo a la adopcion de un grupo de medidas relacionadas con la apertura al turismo y el permiso a la inversion extranjera, encaminadas a lograr una mejora en la sociedad cubana que implique un bajo coste social. El turismo figura en el p…

BUDOWANIE KONKURENCYJNOŚCI ORAZ ROZWÓJ RELACJI FIRM SEKTORA MŚP Z OTOCZENIEM SPOŁECZNO-GOSPODARCZYM

2014

Wprowadzenie do przedsiębiorstwa koncepcji społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu (CSR, Corporate Social Responsibility) jest szczególnie istotne w wypadku firm należących do sektora małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw (sektor MŚP). W sektorze MŚP w ostatnim cza-sie nastąpiła istotna zmiana sposobu prowadzenia biznesu. W systemie produkcyjnym wyróż-nia się coraz więcej zadań o charakterze unikatowym, tak zwanych zleceń typu projekt. Sek-tor MŚP realizujący tego typu zlecenia jest szczególnie narażony na utratę konkurencyjności, gdyż zarządzanie projektami polega na zastosowaniu dużej wiedzy, doświadczeń, narzędzi, metod oraz technik w działaniach planistycznych w celu osiągnięcia lub przewyższe…

Internal Communication System Analysis in a Small Company

2017

[EN] The aim of this paper is to analyze the internal communication system in a small company. We used structured interviews in all hierarchical levels to compare the perceptive differences and the way of using the communication tools. A total of five one-hour interview sessions were made to evaluate the involved variables in every communicative tool appointed byor-ganization members. The results showed some contradictions between the respondentsand a low horizontal and descending communication caused by the limited use of these commu-nication tools. Finally, suggestions for improvements to prevent problems and enhance their positive effects were informed.

Farm Entrepreneurs’ Intentions to Develop Pluriactive Business Activities in Finland

2015

We contribute to the entrepreneurial intentions literature by applying the theory of planned behaviour and resource-based views to the model of active entrepreneurs’ intention to develop their pluriactive businesses. Using our 2012 survey data from farm firms in Finland, we address the limited focus on active entrepreneurs and their intentions to develop on-going income-generating, off-farm related business activities. We found that attitudinal proxy antecedents such as innovation, cooperation and growth for pluriactivity differ for active and non-active entrepreneurs and with respect to the entrepreneurs’ age and production line and innovation behaviour. Praca wnosi wkład w badania nad int…

Open Service Innovation: The Case of Tourism Firms in Scandinavia

2016

Most empirical research investigating open innovation has focused on the development of new physical products in manufacturing industries, whereas open service innovation has not been researched correspondingly. Services have some characteristics that distinguish them from physical products, which may affect the types of open innovation practice utilised during service innovation processes. Tourism services comprise a subset of services that is particularly distant from tangible products. Therefore, the exploration of how tourism firms utilise different types of open innovation practice offers a valuable opportunity to learn about the nature of open service innovation practices. Thus, this …
