- Conditions for entrepreneurship development in creative industries in PortugalPublication . Carrilho, Tiago; Porfírio, JoséCreative Industries are at the core of the development of modern societies, fuelling innovation and promoting the development of new business models. However, the adequate conditions for the development of Creative Industries is not usually spontaneous, and must be developed. At the same time, likewise other types of entrepreneurs, creative entrepreneurs present some idiosyncratic characteristics that make them “special”. In the present paper we present the preliminary results for Portugal, of a large study conducted among creative entrepreneurs in some Southern European countries and in the UK, under an EU project. The principal objective of this paper is to present the conditions that established creative entrepreneurs in Portugal consider vital for their establishment and the inherent development of their businesses. We conclude that the development of creative entrepreneurship has implicit specific characteristics that differentiate it from the overall entrepreneurship picture, and that creative entrepreneurs, although present also some differences according to the different sectors of creative industries considered, are in themselves different from the general entrepreneurs. This may have consequences at the level of public policies’ conception and implementation that must be considered by the countries that want to promote entrepreneurship in creative industries.
- Promoting entrepreneurship in cultural and creative industries in Europe: creative industries entrepreneur’s network : the CINet projectPublication . Porfírio, José; Hassid, Joseph; Carrilho, TiagoCINet, the Creative Industries Network of Entrepreneurs was a project inspired in the unique ecology of Nottingham’s creative industry sector. The project was funded by the European Commission under Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation Program (cinet.eu.uab.pt) CINet brings together creative industry clusters in Nottingham, Greece, Portugal and Spain. Its aim was to facilitate shared learning amongst entrepreneurs and to promote entrepreneurship in the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) by developing the conditions for learning and collaborative advantage within small firm clusters. CINet Partners came from several southern European countries (Portugal, Spain, Greece and France), the UK and Romania. They were: • Universidade Aberta, Lisbon (Portugal) – Project Coordinator • UK WON (UK Work Organisation Network) • Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, Barcelona (Spain) • University of Piraeus Research Centre-UPRC, Athens (Greece) • Association for Education and Sustainable Development (Romania) • DNA, Cascais (Portugal) • Media Deals Association (France) CINet developed an acceleration program that was offered through three main modalities: full eLearning; blended-learning and full face-to-face training. This permitted to test the different conditions and respective advantages and drawbacks of training entrepreneurs. The outcomes of the project allowed the creation of a network of creative entrepreneurs between the three Southern European Countries involved; an improvement of knowledge concerning important differences deriving from the different type of entrepreneurship training delivery, and also the need to consider different cultural conditions when defining public policies and actions concerning entrepreneurship development in CCIs.
- The impact of ICT and online social networks on health and social servicesPublication . Porfírio, José; Jacquinet, Marc; Carrilho, TiagoOne of the domains where ICTs’ impact on healthcare and social services can be assessed is through the presence of healthcare interactions in virtual social networks, blogs and portals. The emerging concept of e-health is covering part of this new phenomena and our task is to make a clear statement of the problem, what are the relevant dimensions and the impacts of new technologies and practices in health and social services and how this is changing the present business models in these industries. The present chapter deals with three main issues. The first about the Concept of E-health. The second issue is related to the Healthcare online social networks. In this domain we consider that it is important to distinguish different types of networks taking into consideration their aim, since they will have different implications both for business as usual and for strategic purposes of different healthcare services’ providers. Finally, we will assess the ICTs impact on healthcare on the domain of e-business. By integrating these different concepts, we will try to demonstrate how ICTs directed to healthcare are changing the underlying structure of healthcare businesses, supplying new business models and becoming a driver for change and productivity gains while contributing to infrastructure and skill development to healthcare. These changes are posing interesting strategic challenges to the healthcare sector that is worthwhile to consider and equate in light of the conditions required for success.
