1. The changing geography of innovation
Sammanfattning : The Asian century is at our doorstep. Emerging economies like China and India present a major source of not only supply-, but also demand for Western MNCs. LÄS MER
2. On subscale flight testing : Cost-effective techniques for research and development
Sammanfattning : Experiments with downscaled or subscale physical models have traditionally been an essential source of information in aerospace research and development. Physical models are very effective at revealing unforeseen issues and providing confidence in design predictions or hypotheses. LÄS MER
3. Low-Cost Demonstrators : Enhancing Product Development with the Use of Physical Representations
Sammanfattning : Ever since the early nineties and the advent of affordable and comprehensive 3D-CAD systems, companies have striven to take advantage of cost-effective Virtual Prototyping, gradually moving away from activities involving physical representations of the evolving product. There are, however, aspects of the product development process that are less suitable for virtual exploration. LÄS MER
4. Business Model Design for Social Goods and Services in Developing Economies
Sammanfattning : Over the past decade there have been increasing calls for alternative ways of tackling poverty problems in developing economies. Rather than aid or charity approaches that have traditionally dominated this area, an alternative line of discussion around base-of-the-pyramid approaches has emerged which emphasizes the role of innovation and pro-poor entrepreneurship.

5. Single-stranded DNA : methods and application in nanotechnology
Sammanfattning : Basic molecular and cell research, production of recombinant proteins, diagnostic detection of genetic mutations, construction of nanostructures and high-throughput DNA sequencing are only a few examples of the diverse set of applications that are amenable thanks to the availability of synthetic DNA polymers in biomedicine. Strategic investments and technical progress together with the introduction of automation in the synthesis of DNA oligomers enabled to transform, in just a few decades, a process mastered only by a niche of biochemists into an affordable and available custom-made product to every scientific field.
