Technological change is exciting as much as it is daunting. The arrival of new digital tools affects consumption patterns, types of employment and working conditions, and can pose challenges to organizations and individuals alike. Indeed, although technological change is a factor for economic growth, it can also be an amplifier, or even a catalyst, of inequality. It is also a social change and interacts in complex ways: technology is both the source and the consequence of social transformation. To understand technological change and to harness its effects, this book studies transformations at different levels (societal, organizational and individual). In its analysis of the subject, it also draws on a number of disciplines of the human and social sciences, such as anthropology, sociology and psychology.

Industrial transformation is a research and teaching field with a focus on the phenomenon and mechanisms of industrial development and renewal. It concerns changes in economic activities caused by innovation, competition and collaboration, and has a rich heritage of evolutionary economics, institutional economics, industrial dynamics, technology history and innovation studies. It borrows concepts and models from the social sciences (sociology, history, political sciences, business/management, economics, behavioural sciences) and also from technology and engineering studies. In this book, the authors present the key theories, frameworks and concepts of industrial transformation and use empirical cases to describe and explain the causes, processes and outcomes of transformation in the context of digitalization and sustainability. They stress that industrial transformation consists both of Darwinian "survival of the fittest" selection, and of intentional pursuits of innovation, and of industrial capabilities creation. The work argues that managing the global trends of transformation is not only about new technology and innovation: existing institutional settings and dynamic interactions between technological change, organizational adaptation and economic activities also have a profound impact on future trajectories. The areas under investigation are of great relevance for strategic management decisions and industrial and technology policies, and understanding the mechanisms underlying transformation and sustainable growth.

This book scrutinizes the relationship between entrepreneurship and change in technological domains in order to discover how each element influences the other. Fresh empirical evidence is placed under the lens of recent theoretical advancements, through the exploration of entrepreneurial initiatives at firm, regional and industrial levels. Distinguished scholars in the fields of entrepreneurship, technology management, strategy and innovation investigate how technological changes generate opportunities that entrepreneurs or entrepreneurial organizations can fully exploit. They also discuss the argument that entrepreneurial behavior can be a promoter of change in both technology-generating and technology-adopting businesses, and explore topics such as strategic renewal through change and entrepreneurship (at both corporate, regional and industrial level). This unique and absorbing book will prove invaluable to academics and students with an interest in entrepreneurship and technology, as well as to entrepreneurs, research and development managers and corporate executives wishing to gain an insight on how change benefits business creation and renewal.

This volume provides an understanding of firms' R&D and innovation strategies and their economy-wide consequences. It is based on the premise that differences in firm-level returns, as well as economy-wide outcomes, may be linked to the heterogeneous ways in which firms organize and undertake R&D and innovation activities. It emphasizes innovation strategies of innovating firms, and reflects that innovation efforts do not represent a uniform type of expenditure. Organized into three parts the volume moves from the micro to the macro-level. This structure highlights the notion that R&D and innovation and growth are two interdependent perspectives. The first of these is micro-oriented and focuses on innovation processes of firms, where R&D activities and other innovation efforts give rise to consequences such as a strengthening of resource bases, growth of sales and employment, patents, new products, increasing productivity and profits, and improved chances of survival. The second perspective comprises economy-wide effects in the form of overall technological change, growth in total factor productivity, and structural change processes, where certain sectors may benefit from new inputs from other sectors while others experience declining markets and reduced output. The book brings together contributions and perspectives from both economics and business scholars, and will appeal to academics, researchers, and students interested in R&D and innovation strategies, international business, business strategy, and the economics of technological change.

Science and technology have long been regarded as important determinants of economic growth. Edwin Mansfield (1971, pp. 1- 2), a pioneer in the economics of technological change, noted: Technological change is an important, if not the most important, factor responsible for economic growth . . . without question, [it] is one of the most important determinants of the shape and evolution of the American economy. Science and technology are even more important in the "new economy," with its greater emphasis on the role of intellectual property and knowledge transfer. Therefore, it is unfortunate that most individuals rarely have the opportunity to explore the economic implications of science and technology. As a result, the antecedents and consequences of technological change are poorly understood by many in the general public. This lack of understanding is reflected in a recent survey conducted by the National Science Board (2000), summarized in Science & Engineering Indicators. ' As shown in Table 1. 1, the findings of the survey indicated that many Americans, despite a high level of interests in such matters, are not as well-informed about technological issues as they are about other policy issues. As shown in the table, individuals self assess, based on a scale from 1 to 100, their interest in science and technology policy issues as being relatively high, yet they self assess their knowledge or informedness about these issues relatively lower.

The objective of the present chapter is to analyze the relationship between entrepreneurship and change in technological domains, with the focus on possible causal relations in both directions. It aims at investigating how technological changes generate opportunities that entrepreneurs or entrepreneurial organizations can properly exploit, and shedding light on how entrepreneurial behavior can be a promoter of change in both technology-intensive and technology-adopting businesses. Over the last 15 years we have been assisting (and keep on assisting, even nowadays) a spectacular amount of changes generated by science and technology. Technology is commonly numbered among the top drivers of a strong entrepreneurial 'renaissance' (Dosi, 1982; Arend, 1999), in particular thanks to its pervasive role, to its dramatic and irreversible development, and to the fact that recent technological changes (especially in ICT, green tech, biotechnology and life sciences) are generating opportunities that may be effectively developed by entrepreneurial firms (Stam and Garnsey, 2007). The starting point for our meditation on this topic is the perception that 'entrepreneurship is about change' (Audrestch, 2002); among all change enablers, we focus on technology because it is inherently pervasive and generates opportunities that can be caught by an entrepreneurial organization. At the same time entrepreneurial posture may be able to generate significant push in technological advancement and innovation. We approach these topics along two main perspectives: on the one hand we try to go beyond a mere focus on the radical, architectural, and product-related technical change; we analyze both technology producers and technology users (i.e. individuals or firms capable of exploiting technologies as a tool for change), which is somewhat novel in the literature on technology and entrepreneurship. On the other, we consider how the link between technological change and entrepreneurship varies along the firm's life cycle; in particular what is the role of entrepreneurship in large and mature businesses? We thus encompass the scientific advancement that has overcome the Schumpeterian dichotomy of incumbent vs. new firms in innovative regimes. The goal of this chapter is to formulate a conceptual map, based on a literature review, for homogenous handling of the book chapters. We also intend to provide a reconciliation of disciplines such as strategic management, entrepreneurship and technological change in the context of recent research progresses. Finally we aim to suggest room for future research. We based our analysis on a literature survey carried out on sixty journals included in the ABS ranking, that are in the areas of entrepreneurship, strategic management, and innovation. Through this survey we selected a number of papers which helped us to identify in the extant literature on entrepreneurship and technological change recent trends and new emerging concepts. The survey was conducted as suggested by Schildt et al. (2006): for the last three years, each issue and volume has been examined, while a second analysis has been performed on the last ten years, based on indexed research of papers containing the words 'technologic(al) change' and 'entrepreneur(ship/ial)' in the title. This resulted in more than 600 paper titles; given the nature of our research interest, we then only selected papers (both theoretical and empirical) based on the firm- or industry-level perspective and practically no individual level related papers have been included. A deeper analysis of titles enabled the identification of more than 100 contributions which were considered as relevant if at least one of the following conditions was verified: (a) the paper described entrepreneurship, or theorizes on it, within the technological domain; (b) the paper described technological changes in an entrepreneurial regime; (c) the paper suggested causality links between entrepreneurship and technological change, and/or vice versa. The chapter is organized as follows: in Section 2 we introduce evidence and debates regarding the definition of entrepreneurship; Section 3 introduces the dimensions and antecedents of technological change, providing a knowledge-based perspective that is functional to illustrate a bidirectional relationship with entrepreneurship (shown in Section 4). Section 5 discusses the role of innovation dynamics at the crossroads between entrepreneurship and technological change, deriving a conceptual map for the understanding of their mutual causality relation. Section 6 summarizes and concludes.
