The extensive system scrutiny (projection and synthesis) simulated with the help of Vester Sensitivity Model shows the global variables (Economic development, Mobility service, Enabling condition) leverages the scrutinized system to sustainable mobility. However, for the designed system to be sustainable, current mobility system requires transformation to service centric design fuelled by renewable energy sources which needs to be enabled through behaviour correction of mobility user. The system reaches its saturation in every 15-simulation round which is bound in the negative feedback cycle indicating it can be qualified as self-regulating system.

This research aims to develop a blockchain-based traceability system that addresses these gaps through a sustainability-driven, multi-stakeholder approach. Grounded in the Quintuple Helix Innovation (5HI) model, the study incorporates perspectives from government, industry, academia, civil society, and environmental actors to co-create a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) tailored to Thailand’s organic agriculture sector. Data were gathered from in-depth interviews with key stakeholders including farmers, processors, logistics providers, retailers, certifiers, regulators, system developers, and consumers supported by document analysis of relevant agricultural, climate, and blockchain-related policies. The resulting MVP integrates mobile applications, IoT sensors, and blockchain verification for real-time carbon tracking and transparent certification. The originality of this study lies in operationalizing the 5HI framework into a practical, participatory MVP design that merges technical feasibility with environmental and institutional accountability. Findings show promise in reducing certification fraud and enhancing traceability legitimacy, although implementation challenges such as interoperability, startup costs, and rural access persist. This work contributes a replicable model for sustainable digital transformation in agri-food innovation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 4","pages":"Article 100656"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145221085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was conducted based on 533 interviews with healthcare users in the clinical units where they receive care. Expectations were collected using a seven-point scale. They were analyzed using means analysis and a principal components factorial model, and ratified using the structural equation method to define their internal structure. The results reveal that the expectation dimensions of \"security and assertiveness,\" \"punctuality and professional dedication,\" and \"personalized attention\" shape the quality of service expected by users, structuring a system of significantly related factors that form a coherent construct. The findings of this work suggest a system of service quality dimensions expected by users that managers could adopt, on the one hand, to support some managerial decisions and, on the other, to identify some components of the services provided that could be intervened in order to respond to the ex ante needs of users. We conclude that the model shows that the three latent factors define expectations and reveal potential areas for improvement, as expected by users. Furthermore, it was found that these factors establish mutually influential relationships, where the dimensions of security and assertiveness, as well as timeliness and professional dedication, behave as independent exogenous factors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"11 4","pages":"Article 100661"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145325351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From an initial pool of 197 barriers, 129 were distilled through expert consultations, resulting in eight primary categorizes: sustainability-specific issues, patent process barriers, technical and design challenges, financial and investment barriers, legal and enforcement challenges, international and geopolitical challenges, regulatory and public sector barriers, compulsory licensing issues, and collaboration and ownership issues. To address these barriers, the research identified 32 drivers, with 15 identified as optimal solutions based on open innovation and circular economy, including collaborative strategies (sharing technology, knowledge, innovation, joint patents, and collaborative IPR), Disassembly Standardization Index, advanced repairing, large-scale repairing, open-source design, reusability, repairability, remanufacturability labels, Digital Product Passport, and fully-open outbound IP models. These drivers facilitate resource pooling, risk-sharing, and knowledge co-creation among stakeholders, thereby promoting circular design strategies in electronic industry. The transition from green patents to circular patents represents a critical shift in sustainable electronics, highlighting the importance of collaborative strategies and JVs s in fostering a circular economy.
