In addition, it is widely acknowledged that food is one of the key consumption contexts for environmental and social impacts around the world. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the discussion on promoting sustainable food consumption. More specifically, this study provides insights into the promotion of sustainably produced food to consumers as well as into the value orientations linked with sustainable food consumption. This dissertation contributes to the existing literature on sustainable food consumption by showing that such consumption may be motivated by a plethora of value orientations – and their c…
Epidemiat : taloushistoriallinen katsaus
2020
Epidemioilla on lyhyen ja pitkän aikavälin taloudellisia ja demografisia vaikutuksia sekä yhteiskunnallisia seurauksia. Samankaltaisuuksistaan huolimatta epidemioiden lopputulokset ovat riippuvia tapahtumaympäristöistään – patogeenit saattavat vaatia hyvin erityiset olosuhteet levitäkseen ja tuottaakseen epidemioita. Historiallinen vertailu osoittaa, että yhteiskuntia muuttaneet suuret tartuntatautiepisodit (kuten musta surma) esiintyvät verrokkeina useammin kuin niiden yleistyvyys tai tyypillisyys puoltaisivat. Epidemiat saattavat haitata alue- ja makrotaloutta hyvinkin pitkällä aikavälillä, mutta tämä on riippuvaista sokkien kohdentumisesta ja laajemmasta taloudellisesta ympäristöstä. Kuo…

Nel presente lavoro, dopo aver illustrato da un punto di vista teorico la Realtà Aumentata e le sue principali caratteristiche, si analizzano le potenzialità di quest’ultima. Scopo del presente studio è infatti quello di conoscere gli impatti della realtà aumentata sull’apprendimento, sulla motivazione e, più specificamente studiarne i possibili effetti in ambito scolastico secondo una logica inclusiva. In the present work, after having illustrated the Augmented Reality and its main characteristics from a theoretical point of view, the potential of the latter is analyzed. The purpose of the present study is in fact to know the impacts of augmented reality on learning, on motivation and, mor…
Carsharing business models in Germany: characteristics, success and future prospects
2017
Carsharing provides an alternative to private car ownership by allowing car use temporarily on an on-demand basis. Operators provide carsharing services using different business models and ownership structures. We distinguish between cooperative, business-to-consumer (B2C) roundtrip and one-way, as well as peer-topeer (P2P) carsharing. This paper characterizes these different types of business models and compares their success in terms of diffusion using a comprehensive database of all 101 German carsharing providers in 2016. The key result holds that fleet size is significantly different across business models ranging from a few cars (cooperatives in small towns), to a few hundred (B2C rou…

The Design Towards a Collaborative Subscription Service : The Case of The Finnish Newspaper Industry
2020
The newspaper industry is challenged with its business models. To stabilize revenues, publishers opted for digital subscriptions for generating additional revenue streams. However, digital subscriptions showcase limited success. News aggregator platforms may promise publishers a pool of paying readers. But platform fees and the loss of customer relationships enact barriers among publishers to join. This study proposes a software prototype based on design science research to address the aforementioned shortcomings by deriving design principles for a collaborative subscription service. Building on the strategic alliance, digital platform and business model literature, this research aims to id…
Impact of COVID-19 on Business Model Innovation at EdTech Startups
2021
Purpose: COVID-19 occurred at the end of 2019 and forced the world to change daily routines. Schools and offices were closed and needed to move to online mode. Educational technology (EdTech) aims to advance the learning results for students, foster individual approaches, and diminish teachers' burnout. The study aims to understand the impact of COVID-19 on business model innovation (BMI) at EdTech startups. Modern scholars show interest in researching firms that have various business models simultaneously. It is still unclear how business model diversification corresponds to its accomplishments. COVID-19 was a rapid and unexpected change. Hence, companies did not have much time to change t…
