Ambidexterity describes someone's ability to use both hands with equal ease. And in the field of management, ambidexterity refers to the ability of organizations to simultaneously explore new capabilities and exploit existing competences. Although this concept has been established as an important antecedent of organizational innovation and performance, it is still unclear how organizational best strive for ambidexterity and even how this concept be best understood. Recently, researchers have started to argue that ambidexterity is not only essential at the organizational level, but also at the individual level. However, research on individual ambidexterity is still in its infancy. This paper is to explore the relationship between individuals' personality and individuals' ambidexterity. In particular, we identify individual who is a researcher from university or private enterprise. Data collected from 202 researchers in Japan. Then we examined the effect of researchers' personality-captured using FFM's big five factors-on both the researchers' exploratory orientation, exploitative orientation and ambidextrous orientation which is measured in three items each. And we operationalized our dependent variable, research performance in two different ways: the number of journal publications and amount of research expenses received in one year. We also included several control variables in our analyses like the English ability, years of experience as a researcher, years of research career and the number of members in the research team. We used SEM (structural equation modeling) for our analyses and observe the significant relationship between researchers' personality, researchers' ambidexterity and the impact on research performance.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127731558","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 role of government support was highlighted as having a significant impact on the resilience and robustness of technology infrastructures worldwide — and in Israel specifically [1]. Referred to as the ‘Start-up Nation,’ Israel and its entrepreneurial success are topics of discussion and reflection across the globe. This work, based on numerous interviews and archival research, provides insights as to how the role of the Israeli government has adapted over time to support this phenomenon. From bi-national marketing agreements to full-blown government-funded incubators and accelerators, programs and government goals have constantly changed to provide a layer of support for technology management and intelligent systems. Funding mechanisms and programing have adapted to shifting populations and target audiences. As opposed to merely summarizing history, this paper breaks events into three distinct time periods to reveal how different government programs were made available, due to changes in expectations and targets that triggered government to adapt their offerings to support changing needs. The final discussion identifies how local and national entities aim to keep pace with ever-changing needs to manage technology as well as intelligent systems to keep abreast of the increased speed of innovation. This includes the introduction of public/private support agencies intended to be more flexible and agile to meet the continuously-shifting enterprise, cluster and ecosystem needs of the country and its global outreach.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125650795","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}

In recent years, SIBs have been launched in the healthcare sector for the purpose of reducing future medical costs and improving the quality of life of patients. For example, a SIB called \"Be Active\" launched in Birmingham, England, encouraged people to be healthier through exercise, smoking cessation, etc., which raised an amount equivalent to £464 million. From this point of view, the application of SIB to the healthcare field is social innovation. However, in the healthcare sector, the implementation of SIBs has been limited to only 18 projects, which comprise approximately 17% of the total practices, suggesting the existence of outstanding issues that obstruct the realization of its potential. Considering this situation, in the present study, we conducted an intensive review of scholarly reports of SIB cases in the healthcare sector to date to identify the key factors of their successful implementation and the associated issues in accordance with the current flow of medical economic evaluation, followed by a consideration of a socioeconomic system for the SIB with respect to the theories of medical innovation.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133474730","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}

Whilst it is important to improve operating efficiency in the bid to become more cost competitive, there is still an underlying need to venture out of the norm and explore new opportunities. Though a great deal of research has emerged regarding the achievement of ambidexterity, there remains a gap in understanding how this is actually operationalised in organisations. This paper takes aim at this problem in the context of SME manufacturers that produce a high variety of customised products at low volumes (HVLV). Under such circumstances, ambidexterity appears intuitively easier to achieve given the manufacturer is designed to be as flexible as possible in the first place — though, it would seem this may be to their detriment. Based on a literature review and drawing from ambidexterity and organisational theory, our contribution is geared towards investigating the underlying mechanisms that make HVLV manufacturers ambidextrous in the first place. In particular, we concern ourselves with exploring how ambidexterity is enacted through what are deemed \"better\" management practices that result in innovative organisations. By better understanding the more latent characteristics of HVLV manufacturers, we shed some light on the interactions between external and internal influences affecting the impact of ambidexterity under such an environment. Further theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125730044","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}

Evaluating patent quality objectively and scientifically, is important to promote the transfer of patent technology and achievements, and enhance the country's independent innovation capability. According to our review of the literature on the evaluation standards of patent quality, we conclude that the current evaluation for the patent quality mainly takes \"three characteristics of genetically patent\" as the unified standard. However, because the evaluation standards ignore patent technology to some extent, which is the essential characteristics of a patent, the standard is difficult to accurately measure regarding the level of patent quality. In this study, based on patent technical perspective, combined with the classification methods in technology and a contemporary system of science and technology, we divide patent into three types,: basic-type patent, technological patent and applied-type patent. Next, we further analyze the different evaluation standards of patent quality under these three levels based on the characteristics of three types of patents. Next the scientific nature of the classification evaluation index of patent quality from the perspective of empirical research is investigated, which can provides a certain basis and reference to construct a scientific and reasonable evaluation index system and improve our country's evaluation standard of patent quality.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128603685","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}

They forecast a broadening of entrepreneurship education leading students to \"think and act in entrepreneurial ways in all facets of life, to pursue careers where entrepreneurship can manifest in many different ways, and to apply the entrepreneurial mindset in their personal lives\" (p. 16). This approach was adopted at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in the design of a Ph.D. program for life science and bioengineering students. The faculty instigators recognized that the majority of STEM doctoral program graduates were not choosing academic careers and were not necessarily being prepared to engage in entrepreneurial behavior either through new venture creation or opportunity seeking within larger organizations. In reviewing the entrepreneurship education literature, it was noted that many programs lacked clear learning objectives and that few provided outcome measures [2, 3]. In this paper, we explain how learning outcomes were developed and implemented for a program selected by the National Science Foundation for its innovativeness and potential for replication, and how results have been and are being evaluated in accordance with Mialaret's [4] theoretical perspective for designing and implementing an education program.","PeriodicalId":390110,"journal":{"name":"2019 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"3307 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127491060","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}
