Innovation Tango in Industry 5.0 Era—How Humanities and Social Sciences Take the Lead
A logic model for evaluating the scientific, social, and political benefits of humanities and social sciences (HSS) research
Due to the predominantly intangible and long-term nature of benefits generated by research in the humanities and the social sciences (HSS), researchers in these fields face even greater pressure than those working in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to demonstrate the benefits of their work. This study proposes a model to evaluate the scientific, social, and political benefits of HSS across short-, medium-, and long-term h…
From Particles to Firms
The idea of linking knowledge across disciplines to form unified theoretical structures has long attracted scientific interest. Building on this tradition, and employing the metaphor research strategy, this study constructs a typology of interfirm technological relationships inspired by the dynamics of interparticle interactions in chemistry. Interparticle interactions were selected as the metaphorical base due to their diversity, predictability …

The Triple Helix Model of Innovation and Sustainable Development Goals
Innovation is widely recognized as a critical driver for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); however, the full potential of innovation, particularly through systemic approaches like the Triple Helix model, remains underexplored. The Triple Helix model offers a structured framework to address the multifaceted challenges in sustainable development. This study conducts a scoping review to map the existing literature on the applicatio…
How does the problem-oriented innovation system (PIS) help in the management of cardiovascular diseases
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are a multifaceted and complex problem in the health system that can change the priorities of the economic, social, and even political systems of countries. Therefore, as a grand challenge (GC), its management requires adopting a systematic, interdisciplinary, and innovative approach. In Iran, the most common causes of death, have changed from infectious and diarrheal diseases to cardiovascular diseases since…
Metaphor research as a research strategy in social sciences and humanities
Implementing RIS3 (Research and Innovation Strategies for Smart Specialization) to unlock Iran’s regional potential
Technological learning in large firms
The prerequisite of developing countries’ economic growth is to move along the technological development trajectory through technological learning, and large firms as hubs of technological knowledge, play an important role in this transition. In this paper, we tried to bridge two main taxonomies in the field of technological development, one of them referring to taxonomies of firms, and the other one referring to technological learning processes.…

Identifying patterns of countries’ industrial diversification
A Framework for Future-Oriented Assessment of Converging Technologies at National Level
Converging technologies require intelligent policy-making as they have significant capabilities to develop disruptive innovations. In this regard, future-oriented technology assessment is vital given the great uncertainty about the consequences of and barriers to accessing these technologies. However, few frameworks have been developed to evaluate converging technologies, and most of those have neglected the unique dimensions of these technologie…
“Bio to bits”
Purpose Big Data (BD) is not only a quintessential part of many economic activities but also has evolved into a veritable business ecosystem. However, most Big Data ecosystem (BDE) models have a technical, bottom-up focus and mostly lack the capability for a broad socioeconomic analysis. This paper identifies the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) as a useful, operational framework and uses a metaphorical analogy to adapt it for the BDE. The to…
A Systems-Based Approach to Analyze Environmental Issues
Environmental issues such as water scarcity are typically multidimensional problems, and resolving them requires a systems-based approach and socio-technical innovations. This article applies the “Problem-oriented Innovation System (PIS)” as a new approach to resolve water scarcity problem. In Iran, this has not been the case as natural water scarcity along with decades of mismanagement has turned water scarcity into a national crisis and caused …

Why do we need ‘Problem-oriented Innovation System (PIS)’ for solving macro-level societal problems
Governmental origin
The NTBFs have attracted growing interest from most of the transitional economies as they are seen as an important source of greater value added creation while being characterised with higher rate of return on capital. Shedding light on the growth determinants of new technology-based firms not only helps managers to accomplish organisational goals but also assists policymakers in devising effective strategies. The role of individual, organisation…
Taking the Long View of Nanotechnology's Societal Implications
New technologies may create benefits, but can also sometimes introduce or exacerbate societal problems. There is broad consensus that adequate and targeted innovation is a key factor for achieving more sustainable development [1]. It is essential to understand that the meaning of "adequate" cannot be understood using only technical parameters. The real impact of emerging technologies is always a byproduct of both the technical parameters of techn…
Extracting the innovation policies for Iran based on the approximation of policy implications for comparative economic doctrines
Due to many differences in presumptions and theoretical foundations within neoclassical and evolutionary economics, policy-makers are always confronted with the dilemma of selecting one of these two central models for technology and innovation policy. In light of widely institutionalised ineffectiveness in the field of market and systematic coordination – in Iran as well many other countries – the present investigation presumes that reliance on a…
Performance appraisals of ICT companies in the Tehran stock market
The impact of information & communication technology (ICT) in increasing financial transactions in different fields, shows the positive developments of this industry in Iran. But could the ICT industry also be effective in the economic capital of the country? This could occur when the ICT industry has a good performance in the capital markets. In this research, the ICT industry in the Tehran Stock Exchange was used to assess its performance in th…
Social capital and national innovation system
Purpose – In the last two decades, researchers have paid much attention to the role of cultural values on economic and social development. In particular, the crucial role of different aspects of culture on the development of innovation has been stressed in the literature. Consequently, it is vital to understand how social capital, as a core cultural value, affects the innovation process and the innovative performance at the national level. Howeve…
A Justice-Oriented Innovation System
Science and Innovations in Iran
This comprehensive book examines the Iranian government's mobilization of resources to develop science and technology, presenting an overview of the structure, dynamics, and outcomes of the government
Potential impacts of nanotechnology development in Iran
In 2001, Iran established a council for the development of nanotechnology and started formulating a nanotechnology development plan. The country faces both opportunities and threats with respect to nanotechnology. This article presents four possible scenarios for nanotechnology in Iran, and evaluates the effectiveness of these different strategies for nanotechnology development in the country
