This study examines factors that determine the propensity of product innovation of entrepreneurial firms in ICT sector. These factors include R&D, founding team characteristics, education level of employees, environment, networking activities, adaptability to customer needs, and environment. Our Logit model shows that except environment, all of these variables have direct significant effects on product innovation in new ICT firms. But environment affects product innovation by interacting with adaptability to customer needs. Among them, education level of employees plays the most important role.

The current business context is more and more characterized by innovation capability as a key factor to boost firm's competiveness. Chinese firms are devoting its actions to develop science and technology to innovate their success. Inspired by synergetics and portfolio innovation, we propose that innovation synergy is an important means to reconfigure competencies and reduce the resource deficiency in order to exploit competitive advantage and success. System dynamics is an insightful approach to the problem structuring to investigate and illuminate the synergy effectiveness of innovation. We establish a SD model of a new venture in China to explore the synergy effect from the interaction of different innovation elements. Results show that as technology market, culture, and process innovation input increase, firm could fully exploit the benefits of innovation synergy and favor its growth and success.

Governments all over the world have recognized that the future of any country's economy depends on the ability to turn it into a knowledge-economy. Especially in Europe there is a rising concern that the old continent could fall behind. Remains the question: What can European governments do in order to correct this situation? In this paper, we discuss this from R&D costs, science landscape, risk capital, “red tape” and culture and people.

A supply chain with a Third Party Logistics (TPL) service provider involved is studied using game theory. The factor of logistics service level is considered to see the effect on the supply chain's total profit. In addition, the profit allocation problem is also discussed in the paper. Then we find out that, when supplier, retailer and TPL use the collaborative decision-making strategy, the sales volume will increase, the logistics service will be improved and the total profit will rise too. With a reasonable allocation method, supply chain members will cooperate actively to realize the Pareto improvement.

There are more and more challenges in development of today's cities. Developing an intelligent, inclusive and sustainable city is the way to go in the future. On the other hand, information technology, knowledge management, innovative networks are shaping the face of our world, which makes our cities more knowledge intensive and innovation-driven. The strategic schema of smart cities on the aspect of functions, namely science and technology strategy, economic strategy, talent and education strategy, culture strategy, managerial strategy, ecology/environment strategy, and the competitive strategy were discussed. Finally, the importance of strategic schema as well as the relationship between the smart city and the innovative city was discussed in brief.

Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) has become a core concept in the entrepreneurship research area, which represents a firm's tendency to commit to innovation, act proactively and take some kind of risks. This paper makes a brief introduction of the concept, dimensions as well as the dimensionality of EO, and reviews literature concerning about the relationship between EO and firm performance, including the direct effect and the moderating effect of third variable. Some simple comments about previous studies and suggestions for future research are also presented.

China is in the key phase which emphasizes emergency management construction and management and it is meaningful to enhance the research on the innovation of emergency mechanism. Based on new analysis and definition of the implication and systematic framework constitution of emergency management mechanism, and combined with the current practical condition of emergency management work in china, innovation analysis focused on five critical weak points, such as risk management and insurance mechanism, information management mechanism, information publication and public opinion intervention mechanism, interest appeal mechanism, supervisory evaluation and accountability mechanism, which must be set up and improved urgently during the construction process of emergency management mechanism.

This article reviews the studies on the influencing factors of the establishment mode choice in international market entry, based on 12 empirical studies published from 2000 to 2011 published in five top journals in the international business and general management & strategy fields. Following a central theme-based organizing approach, we suggest a strategic management process framework with five central theme groups (i.e., country factors, industry factors, firm factors, strategic factors, and experience factors), and summarize the influencing factors by such a categorization. Some disputes have been highlighted and discussed, while the directions for future research are suggested in the end.
