To solve or to occupy: Addressing hybrid bottlenecks in innovation ecosystems
Bottlenecks have recently emerged as one of the key objects of inquiry in research on innovation ecosystems. The broader literature is split into two streams on technological and strategic bottlenecks, relying on the implicit assumption that strategic bottlenecks emerge from technological bottlenecks. In practice, however, many ecosystems get “stuck” in the transition from technological to strategic bottlenecks. This results in the formation of h…
A transitions framework for circular business models
The concepts “circular business models” and “transitions towards a circular economy” have become modern‐day buzzwords. Yet, an understanding of the interplay between these two concepts remains unclear. This paper proposes a conceptual framework that illustrates the innovation mechanisms enhancing circular business models emerging within the context of transitions towards a circular economy. The paper follows a two‐step methodology. First, a theor…
Operating in the shadowland: Why water utilities fail to manage decaying infrastructure
Decaying water infrastructure is a growing challenge in high-income countries while at the same time being under pressure from other socioeconomic and environmental issues. This paper analyses why addressing these challenges is so challenging, despite the critical role of water service for society. The paper is based on a study of the Swedish water sector and reveals how the utilities are influenced by several factors that constrain their agency.…
Does Focus Improve Performance in Elective Surgery? A Study of Obesity Surgery in Sweden
Recent studies have found positive effects from hospital focus on both quality and cost. Some studies indicate that certain patient segments benefit from focus, while others have worse outcomes in focused hospital departments. The aim of this study was to establish the relationship between hospital focus and performance in elective surgery. We studied obesity surgery procedures performed in Sweden in 2016 (5152 patients), using data from the Scan…
