Negative responses to strategic innovation, a case study of record labels facing streaming
2021
Record labels are organizations in charge of phonographic production at the interface between musicians and the audience.

Specifically, streaming platforms like Spotify brought a major change known as a strategic innovation.

A SHAKESPEAREAN WAY FOR CREATIVE SOLUTIONS IN THE BUSINESS WORLD
2012
Both the business world and the artistic one are interesting as far as they give solutions for us. Each in their own way. An artist or a businessman becomes creative if inspired, if living with emotion, if depicting things worth to be taken into consideration. They both start with a dream. The result? Their work, their success. They are both enthusiastic, and responsible for what they do, and the solutions to improve, to change if creative can shape the future differently. W.Shakespeare was probably the most creative of all times and understood the human being as nobody else had done before. A visionary? He was a mind for progress where dreams become reality. Creative performance both in th…

Innovation in the regeneration of the histric center in Sicily: Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto (ME)
2012
Abstract The criteria for intervention on the existing building heritage in the historic centers cannot be pursued without taking into consideration the renovation of the whole relevant urban territory. This does not imply an idea to postpone to future planning, rather to increase the topics in the General Urban Plan (PUG), by bringing into the PUG the elements of the traditional detailed plans for the historic areas with a methodology simplification. The detailed planning has been characterized in the years as “exemplary”, possibly due to the complexity of its project contents and rules and regulations, particularly in the historic areas. Indeed in Italy detailed plans for historic areas a…
