Why Startups Fail: A Survey of Empirical Studies
90% and more of all hi-tech startups fail. True, innovation is very risky, however the odds of failure can be improved. In this study, we survey the empirical literature on the causes of startup failure and propose that the odds of success can be improved by thorough advance preparation.
Indices for Science, Technology and Innovation in Israel and international comparison. Key Figures
The report presents a host of indicators of science, technology, and innovation in Israel. The report is designed to provide diverse and useful information, through different perspectives on these issues.
Creative Ideation: A Review of the Literature
This research paper surveys over 30 research papers on “creative ideation”, focused on (a) the form of novel and useful ideas, a definition of creativity, and (b) the function, or process, of Creativity (defined as ‘widening the range of choices’). A pervasive theme is the tension between the open, “wild” creative thinking and the disciplined […]
Industrial symbiosis – barriers for implementation in Israel
Industrial symbiosis is defined as wastes or by‐products of an industry or industrial process that used as a resource or raw materials for another. The purpose of industrial symbiosis is to create loops of materials while minimising the leakage of natural resources as water, energy and waste – demonstrating some key parts of a circular economy, at a local scale […]
