New technology-based firms (NTBFs) are responsible for the dissemination of technological innovation and industrial boosting, and have become attractive topics of research in the scientific field. However, literature is not uniform in its understanding of the concepts and definitions involving these organisations. Starting from the assumption that clarifying this distinction may contribute to the scientific production of knowledge directed to NTBFs' specificities, this study first aims to suggest a new typology for NTBFs, differentiating between independent and dependent NTBFs. Second, this study presents an overview of recent innovation management studies on independent NTBFs among the top ten technology innovation management journals through a systematic literature review. Research results indicate various distinctive features between these organisations and the existence of several literature gaps to be exploited, such as the licensing of innovation and intra-industrial innovation architectures.

Improvisação e Aprendizagem de Empreendedores Informais: A Experiência de Empreendedores Feirantes

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the process of becoming an entrepreneur in the cooperation and poverty contexts takes place. This study adopted a phenomenological approach for data collection purposes. Autoscopy, which is a methodological device of reflective nature, was herein applied to a group of interlocutors comprising seven representatives of waste pickers’ cooperatives (RC). Data analysis focused on defining the meaning of participants’ speech was conducted in compliance with Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis guidelines. The current findings have shown that becoming a representative of cooperatives involves mobilization toward empowerment and a sense of collectively doing on behalf of community interests. Moreover, these RCs become entrepreneurs in the poverty context, as they perceive opportunities, are persistent and take risks pursuing alternatives for both the survival and improvement of theirs own living conditions, and of others. Adopting a reflective approach associated with an ontology of becoming could have led to deeper results if the current research was a longitudinal study, rather than a cross-sectional one. Training programs provided for waste pickers should take into consideration that their learning process is mainly based on practice. Behaviors disclosed by participants toward fostering collective and entrepreneurial actions in the poverty context may be an inspiration for future changes. The methodological option for adopting a reflective approach resulted in a contribution device that is barely applied to research in the management field; thus, the current investigation can introduce a new pathway for further research.

Resumo O objetivo do estudo foi mapear os aspectos relacionados à gestão de programas de residência em saúde considerando todos os atores envolvidos. Trata-se de uma revisão de escopo adotando as diretrizes estabelecidas pelo JBI. Foram utilizadas como fontes de informação LILACS, MEDLINE, via PubMed, SCOPUS, EMBASE, CINAHL with Full Text e Fonte Acadêmica/EBSCO e Web of Science, entre outras descritas na seção método. Com a estratégia de busca, identificaram-se 17.114 documentos, e após o processo de análise, que envolveu remoção de duplicatas, leitura de título, resumo e textos completos, 32 documentos foram incluídos na revisão, por estarem relacionados à gestão de programas de residência em saúde. A partir do mapeamento desses documentos, surgiram categorias que estavam relacionadas aos aspectos de gestão elencados nesta pesquisa. Algumas informações encontradas se destacaram. Na gestão de pessoas, observam-se aspectos relacionados a recrutamento, seleção dos residentes e treinamento de preceptores. Já na organização, destacam-se estruturação e possibilidades de reorganização de comunicação do programa de residência, bem como os desafios na organização de atividades.

This scoping review aimed to comprehensively map various facets of managing Health Residency Programs, considering all actors and adopting the guidelines established by the JBI. Databases comprised LILACS and MEDLINE via PubMed, SCOPUS, EMBASE, CINAHL with full text, academic source or EBSCO, and Web of Science, among others. A total of 17,114 documents were identified, with 32 articles related to the management of Health Residency Programs included after duplicate removal and title, abstract, and full article reading. The management categories listed in this study resulted from mapping the analyzed articles. Highlighted aspects of people management include recruitment, resident selection, and preceptor training. Regarding organization, the emphasized aspects encompass structuring and reorganizing communication within the residency program and challenges associated with organizing activities.

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo foi revisar sistematicamente a literatura sobre Aprendizagem Empreendedora, analisando os elementos dos estudos publicados sobre o tema ao longo do tempo, com ênfase especial nas abordagens metodológicas empregadas na pesquisa empírica. O estudo foi motivado devido ser um campo da literatura ainda fragmentado. Além disso, as revisões anteriores sobre o tema não lançaram luz suficiente sobre os aspectos metodológicos das pesquisas. Os dados foram obtidos por meio da base de dados Scopus e 356 artigos foram mapeados com o apoio do software VOSviewer, revelando a evolução no número de publicações, redes de relação entre países e de cocitação, entre outras métricas. A análise aprofundada de 38 artigos publicados nos cinco principais periódicos revelou a predominância de estudos realizados no contexto europeu, com empreendedores de empresas tecnológicas e no nível individual de análise. Além disso, identificou-se uma tradição de estudos positivistas.
