- Assessing regional advantage based on smart specialisation strategiesPublication . Farinha, Luís; Lopes, JoãoMaking smart regions smarter through smart specialization strategies (RIS3) is today on the political and economic agenda. In this context, it becomes a priority to know the regional stakeholders' perception of RIS3, based on the prioritization of the use of resources and capacities in their territories. The aim of this study is to perform a bibliometric analysis with the keywords smart specialization, regional innovation systems, and value, rareness, imitability, and organization (VRIO). The authors aim to contribute to the clarification of the literature on regional innovation ecosystems. They also intend to suggest a new model that allows the VRIO model to be adapted to the territories. Through extensive research using the Web of Science database, five clusters were identified (multiple helix; smart specialization and RIS3; innovation and entrepreneurship; regional policies and knowledge transfer and technology commercialization; regional growth, entrepreneurial, and innovative ecosystem), whose content analysis allowed to construct the conceptual regional helix assessment model.
- Knowledge management: application in vocational training organizations: case studyPublication . Fonseca, Eduardo Marques da; Farinha, Luís- Knowledge Management has proven to be a key element in how organizations can innovate and, therefore, enhance the skills of their employees, especially through the acquisition, creation, storage and dissemination of knowledge, acting to facilitate the integration of human resources while contributing to the creation of competitive advantages. Among these organizations, the entities that have their own knowledge as a product assume a key role in society, as they are responsible for knowledge transfer and skills development with a view in a better performance of citizens. The objectives of this investigation are the analysis of the knowledge Management process, and the understanding of the influence of this process on the success of the vocational education practiced and, consequently, on the valorisation and reinforcement of the organization’s competitiveness. To achieve these objectives, a multiple case study was developed and structured by a quantitative and qualitative analysis using interviews, questionnaire, and document analysis in two vocational education organizations in the Automotive Technology area, one in Portugal and other in Spain. The result pointed out that the knowledge Management practices are known to the management and employees of the entities and, although in a not well-structured way, there are activities aimed to improve the knowledge of human resources and there is a concern to reflect this improvement on success of the professional training developed.
