Global climate change, its risks and required measures for their mitigation is of great importance for the agro-food sector. The present paper reviews the climate change impacts of major factors (global warming and elevated atmospheric CO2) and minor and/or indirect factors (O3 concentration, salinity and drought) on the perceived and nutritional quality of fruit and vegetables. Climate change could improve some quality traits related to the primary metabolism (e.g. photosynthesis), such as flavor associated with carbohydrates (e.g. sweetness). Also, it could enhance biochemical pathways related to the defense mechanisms of plants resulting in the improvement of some nutritional traits (e.g. antioxidants). The negative effects of climate change could be observed on product appearance (e.g. visual disorders, malformations) and nutritional value related to protein, mineral and amino acids. However, the interactions between all climate change-related factors and other factors such as genetic material and agricultural practices make it difficult to formulate a clear projection of the future impact on the quality of fruit and vegetables.JEL Codes: O13, O30

The objective of this article is to propose a conceptual framework for understanding the relationship {space-innovation} for current organizations in order to identify issues. The achievement of this objective requires a historical and critical reading of this relationship. The article is structured in three parts. In the first, the relationship is apprehended under the prism of the territory, seen as naturally innovative. In the second, this relationship is apprehended under the prism of the cluster and shows the need to ensure governance. In the third, we approach this relationship under the prism of the collaborative innovation space. Two particular issues currently facing organizations are detailed: (1) the obligation (or not) of organizations to open their borders and (2) the role of actors in the collaborations undertaken.JEL Codes: O310, O320

The sharing economy is a growing sector that is profiting from digitalization by developing multi-sided platforms allowing users to create and manage valuable transactions around products and services. However, for companies, this type of platform requires the implementation of opening processes to provide internal resources in order to help users interact between them and to innovate. This poses a problem of the openness control of boundaries of the company and the platform, which the present research proposes to study. Through the comparative study of several multi-sided platforms, we show that the control mechanisms depend on the type of boundary and the nature of the opening. We also analyze the role of the platform, technological tools and governance in the dynamic management of these boundaries, and the management of open innovation.JEL Codes: O31, O35

Choosing the right mentor is one of the most important decisions in the life of any creative mind. This decision often paves the way to several aspects of an individual professional career and intellectual development. However, the choice is often made unawares and involuntarily, also because it is taken by individuals in the initial stages of their profession and with still limited information. The fact that it is often dictated by available opportunities (e.g. in which academy, school, or university a student is accepted, or which grants he or she manages to obtain) does not help. This paper invites young people to pause and to think about mentorship. It suggests assessing actual and potential mentors against a few basic questions. Perhaps also senior intellectuals, artists, and scholars will find it instructive to consider if the mentorship they provide is what their students and junior colleagues actually need.

A transition toward a sustainable circular bioeconomy requires drastic changes across a broad range of industries and their stakeholders. The current slow pace with which society tries to avert the transgression of critical thresholds of the planetary system is worrying. However, the historical case of the shipping industry in the 19th century shows how suddenly whole industries can change after a long period of low innovation activity and lock-in. We explore how this example might improve the understanding of the transition toward a sustainable circular bioeconomy. For this purpose, we analyze analogies between the processes in the past and the ones we observe today. Our conclusion is that the evolutionary processes shaping the path toward the bioeconomy naturally make use of the knowledge and networks of the fossil era and are characterized by co-existence, mutual learning, and new forms of collaboration.JEL Codes: O12, O14, O32, O33

The rise of business accelerators, angel groups, and startup competitions has meant that founders increasingly pitch their businesses to investors in group settings, raising the question of whether the order in which ideas are pitched affects outcomes. We test in a field experiment whether range-frequency theory or the theory of bounded rationality better predicts the effect of serial position on pitch outcomes. We find that range frequency theory better predicts the empirical patterns than the theory of bounded rationality.JEL Codes: M13, G30, G40

The two main perspectives regarding the drivers of managerial innovation (MI)-institutional and rational-are often presented as contrasts in previous literature. This article seeks to bridge the two perspectives in an effort to analyze the external antecedents of MI in an open innovation framework. Using the French Organizational Change and Computerization survey, this analysis reveals that MI is influenced not only by active external search strategies but also by coercive pressures and a quest for legitimacy. The results also indicate a substitution effect between external search activity and absorptive capacity in relation to MI. That is, openness is beneficial for managerial innovation in manufacturing firms but internal obstacles still dominate.
