Inovação, Tecnologia e Empreendedorismo

Cabe ao nosso Centro para a Inovação, Tecnologia e Empreendedorismo (CITE) realizar atividades multidisciplinares na interseção entre tecnologia, inovação, sustentabilidade e gestão, promovendo a exploração, implementação e adoção de sistemas sócio-técnicos responsáveis e sustentáveis. Focamo-nos nas áreas de Gestão da Inovação, Gestão de Tecnologia e Empreendedorismo de base tecnológica, explorando teorias, métodos, modelos e ferramentas para apoiar o processo de inovação. Através de atividades de investigação e inovação, incluindo consultoria e formação avançada, abordamos desafios ambientais, sociais e económicos, contribuindo para a exploração, implementação e adoção de soluções inovadoras, criando impacto através de resultados de investigação e inovação alinhando as suas atividades com os objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável (ODS).


Valorizamos a colaboração com parceiros nacionais e internacionais. Somos parceiros da rede Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) onde onde temos como missão apoiar as empresas nacionais na sua jornada de inovação, na identificação e concretização de parcerias internacionais para desenvolvimento de negócio ou inovação, procurando em simultâneo as fontes de financiamento mais relevantes.


Apoiamos a implementação de sistemas de gestão de inovação, integrando a gestão da tecnologia com novos modelos de negócio e cadeias de valor, promovendo práticas sustentáveis e responsáveis. Promovemos programas de inovação aberta e programas de aceleração, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento de startups e para o fortalecimento de ecossistemas de inovação.


Trabalhamos em três áreas: gestão da inovação e front-end da inovação (FEI), gestão e política de tecnologia e empreendedorismo e inovação de modelos de negócio.

Impact of Green Knowledge Sharing on the Organizational Performance of SMEs : The Mediating Role of Green Organizational Culture and Technological Innovation

Abstract
ABSTRACT This study explores the impact of Green Knowledge Sharing (GKS) on Organizational Performance (OP), considering the mediating roles of Green Organizational Culture (GOC) and Technological Innovation (TI). Addressing current gaps in the literature, the research extends beyond sector-specific analyses and incorporates a cross-country perspective, examining 297 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, this study acknowledges the influence of digital transformation in enhancing GKS, a factor often overlooked in previous research. By adopting a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach, this article confirms a direct and positive effect on both OP and GOC, with GOC further influencing OP, establishing its mediating role in this relationship. However, the relationships between GKS and TI, as well as the indirect effect of GKS on OP through TI, are not supported. These findings offer theoretical advancements by broadening the conventional understanding of OP beyond financial metrics and present practical implications for SME managers, highlighting strategies to foster a green organizational culture and leverage technological innovation for sustainable performance.

Energy-efficient meta-classifier model for log access anomaly detection in healthcare systems

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT COMPUTING AND CYBERNETICS

Abstract
PurposeDetecting anomalous access to electronic health records (EHRs) is critical for safeguarding patient privacy and ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations. Traditional anomaly detection methods often struggle in this domain due to extreme class imbalance, limited labelled data and the subtlety of insider threats. This study proposes a lightweight, hybrid anomaly detection framework that integrates unsupervised, supervised and rule-based approaches using a meta-classifier architecture.Design/methodology/approachAn experimental and model-development approach is employed, combining machine learning techniques with domain-inspired rule modelling to construct a hybrid anomaly detection framework for healthcare access logs. Performance of the algorithm is measured using standard classification metrics such as precision, recall, F1-score and accuracy.FindingsEvaluated on a synthetic but realistic dataset of 50.000 normal and 500 labelled anomalous healthcare access events, the proposed framework achieved superior performance compared to standalone models as well as other hybrid models, with an F1-score of 0.8989 and recall of 0.8180. It also maintained low inference latency (0.028 ms) and energy consumption (4.03e-07 kg CO2), making it suitable for deployment in resource-constrained clinical environments.Originality/valueThis study highlights the potential of a hybrid meta-classifier to enhance anomaly detection in healthcare access logs, capturing both subtle and obvious anomalies while outperforming conventional models and remaining efficient, scalable and practical for real-time monitoring.

Entrepreneurial Performance of New Ventures in the Sustainable Open Innovation Paradigm

ADMINISTRATIVE SCIENCES

Abstract
The entrepreneurial performance of new ventures operating within the sustainable open innovation paradigm remains underexplored, particularly in terms of how specific sustainability-oriented practices translate into measurable performance outcomes. Prior research has largely examined sustainability, entrepreneurship, and open innovation in isolation, offering limited empirical evidence on their combined effects at the early venture stage. To address this gap, this study analyzes panel data from 407 new ventures incubated in science and technology parks, employing regression-based panel data analysis to examine the relationships between sustainable practices, open innovation engagement, and entrepreneurial performance. The findings suggest that new ventures widely adopt sustainable materials and energy as key strategies, which significantly influence entrepreneurial performance. In contrast, support from local communities does not have a statistically significant impact. Among the sociodemographic factors tested, only the number of years participating in open innovation networks shows a significant effect on entrepreneurial performance. Theoretically, this study advances sustainable open innovation literature by empirically integrating sustainability practices into entrepreneurship performance models. From a managerial perspective, the findings offer actionable insights for entrepreneurs and incubator managers, highlighting which sustainability strategies and network engagements are most likely to yield performance benefits in new ventures.
