A new paradox of the digital economy - Structural sources of the limitation of GDP statistics
2018
The Internet has dramatically changed the way we conduct business and our daily lives by provided us with unprecedented services and conveniences. However, contrary to such accomplishments, productivity in industrialized countries is now experiences an apparent decline. This has raised the question of a possible productivity paradox in the digital economy. The limitation of GDP statistics in measuring the advancement of the digital economy has thus become an important subject. This paper analyzed the structural sources of this problem. Utilizing the results of empirical analyses of national, industrial, and individual behavior in the digital economy, solutions to these critical issues were …
Quality management of research, development and innovation activities in Finnish universities of applied sciences
2018
This study utilises the quality audit reports of Finnish Universities of Applied Sciences to describe the quality management of their research, development and innovation activities (RDI). The institutions are trying to find ways of enlarging the volume of RDI activities and this is clearly reflected in the ways in which they manage quality. Much of the focus lies on the project proposal preparation phase and strategic direction of resources, while less attention has been paid to monitoring and developing the quality of the output. These emphases are analysed in relation to Harvey & Green’s seminal notions on quality in an attempt to see how useful this theoretical framework is in explainin…

Barriers and wellbeing-oriented enablers of intergenerational innovation in the digital age
2021
AbstractSo far, researchers have used a wellbeing-centered approach to catalyze successful intergenerational collaboration (IGC) in innovative activities. However, due to the subject’s multidisciplinary nature, there is still a dearth of comprehensive research devoted to constructing the IGC system. Thus, the purpose of this study is to fill a research void by providing a conceptual framework for information technology (IT) system designers to use as a jumping-off point for designing an IGC system with a wellbeing-oriented design. A systematic literature study was conducted to identify relevant terms and develop a conceptual framework based on a review of 75 selected scientific papers. The …
We are “not” too (young/old) to collaborate : Prominent Key Barriers to Intergenerational Innovation
2019
In this study, we analyzed the barriers to technology-supported intergenerational innovation to understand better how young and old can collaborate towards global innovations. Researchers in different disciplines have already identified various barriers to intergenerational collaboration. However, barriers are changing depending on the context of collaboration, and difficulties still exist to support intergenerational innovation in global settings. Therefore, we investigated the barriers that emerge when people work with someone decades older or younger. The results of our study have shown what barriers are influenced by age, what barriers exist only for senior and younger adults. The study…

Suuntana innovaatiokeskittymä
2012
Suuntana innovaatiokeskittymä -kirjan taustalla on Jyväskylän seutukunnan kokema rakennekriisi, joka aiheutui Nokian tutkimuskeskuksen sulkemisesta vuonna 2009 ja päälle iskeneen taantuman tuomista irtisanomisista eri yrityksissä. On laskettu, että Jyväskylässä menetettiin vuosina 2009–2010 noin 1000 koulutettujen ihmisten työpaikkaa ja noin yhden miljardin euron vientitulot. Kriisin takia Keski-Suomi nimettiin yhdeksi rakennemuutosalueeksi ja selviytymiskeinoja pohtimaan asetettiin laaja-alainen työryhmä. Sen laatimassa Uudet urat -raportissa esitetään tavoite rakentaa Keski-Suomeen innovaatiokeskittymä alueen toimijoiden yhteisenä hankkeena. Jyväskylän yliopiston Agora Center sai tehtäväk…
