  1. 1. Inducing large-scale diffusion of innovation : An integrated actor- and system-level approach

    Författare :Ingrid Mignon; Anna Bergek; Johanna Nählinder; Volker Hoffmann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Innovation; large-scale diffusion; adopters; actor; system; drivers; challenges; motives; strategies; policies; renewable electricity; technology; intermediaries;

    Sammanfattning : In order for the innovation process to be successful, not only do innovations need to be developed and reached the market, but, once they are available for users, they have to spread on a large scale. In the innovation literature, a complete explanation is lacking of why some innovations reach a phase of large-scale diffusion faster than others, including both actor- and system-level components.

  5. 4. The raison d'être of diffusion intermediaries in solar and wind power in Sweden

    Författare :Joakim Aspeteg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-intermediation activities; solar PV; value creation; wind power; adopters; raison d être; diffusion intermediaries; renewable energy technologies; innovation intermediaries; intermediation activities;

    Sammanfattning : Renewable energy technologies such as solar photovoltaics (PV) and wind power are now mature enough to be utilized as a means to build a sustainable energy system. Regardless, the diffusion of these technologies is not always a seamless process since it involves many actors and complex implementation procedures. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Financial systems and the financing of high-technology small firms : The cases of Sweden, Linköping, and Santa Clara County

    Sammanfattning : This is a study of the relation between the financial systems and the financing of hightechnology small firms (HTSFs). The starting point is the notion of two different financial systems: bank-oriented, in which banks (debt) and other financial intermediaries play an important role in the financing of firms, and market-oriented, where the role of banks is less important and stock markets (equity) play a larger role.
