Determinants of the Performance of Countries’ Innovation Ecosystems
The pandemic marked the beginning of a succession of events on a global scale (not the least of which is a greater concern for the environment and for quality of life/distance work) with a major impact on the economy.

It is, therefore, essential to understand which factors most influence innovation performance, with the aim of directing policies and investment towards the areas with the greatest impact on results.

Social Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurship
Social entrepreneurship is the field that entrepreneurs persue their activities to achieve their goal of creating social value. In recent years, there has been growing interest among researchers in the literature on social entrepreneurship. Unlike traditional entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurs prioritize creating social value rather than monetary benefits. Social entrepreneurship aims to address societal challenges and meet fundamental human needs through innovative resource integration.
