Adopting the 3-stage CDM model, we explore the link between R\&D, innovation, and productivity for different size groups of Greek manufacturing firms during the prolonged crisis. At the first stage, we find that the continuation of the crisis is harmful for the R\&D engagement of smaller firms while it increased the willingness for R\&D activities among the larger ones. At the second stage, among smaller firms the knowledge production remains unaffected by R\&D investments, while among larger firms the R\&D decision is positively correlated with the probability of producing innovation, albeit the relationship is weakened as the crisis continues. At the third stage, innovation output benefits only larger firms in terms of labor productivity, while the innovation-productivity nexus is insignificant for smaller firms during the lasting crisis.}, language = {en} } @article{GleissLewandowski2022, author = {Gleiß, Alexander and Lewandowski, Stefanie}, title = {Removing barriers for digital health through organizing ambidexterity in hospitals}, series = {Journal of public health}, volume = {30}, journal = {Journal of public health}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, issn = {2198-1833}, doi = {10.1007/s10389-021-01532-y}, pages = {21 -- 35}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Aim Hospitals noticeably struggle with maintaining hundreds of IT systems and applications in compliance with the latest IT standards and regulations. Thus, hospitals search for efficient opportunities to discover and integrate useful digital health innovations into their existing IT landscapes. In addition, although a multitude of digital innovations from digital health startups enter the market, numerous barriers impede their successful implementation and adoption. Against this background, the aim of this study was to explore typical digital innovation barriers in hospitals, and to assess how a hospital data management platform (HDMP) architecture might help hospitals to extract such innovative capabilities. Subject and methods Based on the concept of organizational ambidexterity (OA), we pursued a qualitative mixed-methods approach. First, we explored and consolidated innovation barriers through a systematic literature review, interviews with 20 startup representatives, and a focus group interview with a hospital IT team and the CEO of an HDMP provider. Finally, we conducted a case-study analysis of 36 digital health startups to explore and conceptualize the potential impact of DI and apply the morphological method to synthesize our findings from a multi-level perspective. Results We first provide a systematic and conceptual overview of typical barriers for digital innovation in hospitals. Hereupon, we explain how an HDMP might enable hospitals to mitigate such barriers and extract value from digital innovations at both individual and organizational level. Conclusion Our results imply that an HDMP can help hospitals to approach organizational ambidexterity through integrating and maintaining hundreds of systems and applications, which allows for a structured and controlled integration of external digital innovations.}, language = {en} } @book{Hummel2011, author = {Hummel, Detlev}, title = {Mittelstands- und Innovationsfinanzierung in Deutschland : Ergebnisse und Hintergr{\"u}nde einer bundesweiten Unternehmensbefragung}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-073-1}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-56751}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {VI, 131}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Die vorliegende Studie analysiert die Ergebnisse einer bundesweiten Unternehmensbefragung zum Finanzierungsverhalten deutscher KMU.

Dar{\"u}ber hinaus werden verschiedene Aspekte des Innovationsverhaltens der befragten Unternehmen beleuchtet. Es zeigt sich, dass die Finanzierung aus erwirtschafteten Gewinnen einen {\"u}berragenden Stellenwert besitzt. Zudem werden neben dem traditionell verankerten Bankdarlehen, vor allem kurzfristige, flexible, aber teure Kontokorrent- und Lieferantenkredite f{\"u}r Investitionszwecke genutzt. Alternative Finanzierungsinstrumente, wie Mezzanine, Beteiligungskapital sowie auch Kapitalmarktfinanzierungen haben bisher nur eine marginale Bedeutung erlangt. Als m{\"o}gliche Ursachen hierf{\"u}r sind mangelnde Kenntnisse und pers{\"o}nliche Vorbehalte auf Unternehmensseite, aber auch die grunds{\"a}tzliche Nichteignung dieser Alternativen festzustellen. So liegt das nachgefragte Finanzierungsvolumen bei KMU h{\"a}ufig unter den Mindestgrenzen derartiger Kapitalgeber. Staatliche F{\"o}rderinstrumente, welche vor allem von gr{\"o}ßeren mittelst{\"a}ndischen Unternehmen in Anspruch genommen werden, k{\"o}nnen dabei nur einen Teilbeitrag leisten, um die Finanzierungsrestriktionen zu reduzieren. Im Bereich der Innovationsfinanzierung zeigt sich daher vor allem bei mittelgroßen Projekten ein besonderer Finanzierungsengpass.}, language = {de} } @article{LuckeHaferHartmann2020, author = {Lucke, Ulrike and Hafer, J{\"o}rg and Hartmann, Niklas}, title = {Strategieentwicklung in der Hochschule als partizipativer Prozess}, series = {Potsdamer Beitr{\"a}ge zur Hochschulforschung}, journal = {Potsdamer Beitr{\"a}ge zur Hochschulforschung}, number = {6}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-498-2}, issn = {2192-1075}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-49276}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-492764}, pages = {99 -- 117}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Die Setzung strategischer Ziele sowie die Zuordnung und Umsetzung dazugeh{\"o}render Maßnahmen sind ein wesentliches Element, um die Innovationsf{\"a}higkeit von Organisationen zu erhalten.

Digital technologies materialized the court practices in ways unthinkable shortly before the pandemic creating resonances with judicial and legal regulation, as well as frictions. A better understanding of the dynamics at play in the digitalization of courts is paramount for designing justice systems that serve their users better, ensure fair and timely dispute resolutions, and foster access to justice. Building on three major bodies of literature —e-justice, digitalization and organization studies, and design research— Designing for Digital Justice takes a nuanced approach to account for human and more-than-human agencies. Using a qualitative approach, I have studied in depth the digitalization of Chilean courts during the pandemic, specifically between April 2020 and September 2022. Leveraging a comprehensive source of primary and secondary data, I traced back the genealogy of the novel materializations of courts' practices structured by the possibilities offered by digital technologies. In five (5) cases studies, I show in detail how the courts got to 1) work remotely, 2) host hearings via videoconference, 3) engage with users via social media (i.e., Facebook and Chat Messenger), 4) broadcast a show with judges answering questions from users via Facebook Live, and 5) record, stream, and upload judicial hearings to YouTube to fulfil the publicity requirement of criminal hearings. The digitalization of courts during the pandemic is characterized by a suspended normativity, which makes innovation possible yet presents risks. While digital technologies enabled the judiciary to provide services continuously, they also created the risk of displacing traditional judicial and legal regulation. Contributing to liminal innovation and digitalization research, Designing for Digital Justice theorizes four phases: 1) the pre-digitalization phase resulting in the development of regulation, 2) the hotspot of digitalization resulting in the extension of regulation, 3) the digital innovation redeveloping regulation (moving to a new, preliminary phase), and 4) the permanence of temporal practices displacing regulation. Contributing to design research Designing for Digital Justice provides new possibilities for innovation in the courts, focusing at different levels to better address tensions generated by digitalization. Fellow researchers will find in these pages a sound theoretical advancement at the intersection of digitalization and justice with novel methodological references. Practitioners will benefit from the actionable governance framework Designing for Digital Justice Model, which provides three fields of possibilities for action to design better justice systems. Only by taking into account digital, legal, and social factors can we design better systems that promote access to justice, the rule of law, and, ultimately social peace.}, language = {en} } @book{Scheer2019, author = {Scheer, August-Wilhelm}, title = {Was macht das Hasso-Plattner-Institut f{\"u}r Digital Engineering zu einer Besonderheit?}, number = {131}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-481-4}, issn = {1613-5652}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-43923}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-439232}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {17}, year = {2019}, language = {de} } @book{SchmiedgenRhinowKoeppenetal.2015, author = {Schmiedgen, Jan and Rhinow, Holger and K{\"o}ppen, Eva and Meinel, Christoph}, title = {Parts without a whole?}, number = {97}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-334-3}, issn = {1613-5652}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-79969}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {143}, year = {2015}, abstract = {This explorative study gives a descriptive overview of what organizations do and experience when they say they practice design thinking.

The authors use a mixed-method research design fed by two sources: questionnaire data and semi-structured personal expert interviews. The study proceeds in six parts: (1) design thinking¹s entry points into organizations; (2) understandings of the descriptor; (3) its fields of application and organizational localization; (4) its perceived impact; (5) reasons for its discontinuation or failure; and (6) attempts to measure its success. In conclusion the report challenges managers to be more conscious of their current design thinking practice. The authors suggest a co-evolution of the concept¹s introduction with innovation capability building and the respective changes in leadership approaches. It is argued that this might help in unfolding design thinking¹s hidden potentials as well as preventing unintended side-effects such as discontented teams or the dwindling authority of managers.}, language = {en} }
