Background/Problem Description: Creating innovative products and take them to the market is a struggle for many companies around the globe. At the Department of Security & Enterprise at Sony Mobile Communications in Lund it was believed that the innovation process could be enhanced if more focus would be put on pricing, adoption and timing. The belief at the department was that these three fac
The purpose of the study was to provide a foundation to understand the potential implications of performing digital acquisitions and its effects on digital capabilities for traditionally non-digital businesses. A two-way, time and entity, fixed regression model was adopted to investigate this relationship in the electric utility industry, between the years 2010-2021. The theoretical framework of
The COVID-19 pandemic has been one of the deadliest health crises in modern history. Increasing production of all relevant medical goods and ensuring their equitable distribution has been argued as a necessity to contain the pandemic, which led to the South African and Indian delegation in the TRIPS Council of the World Trade Organization to propose the implementation of a TRIPS waiver to ensure t
Immunotherapy aims to enhance the immune system’s response to cancer. Different immunotherapies exist, such as cytokine therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors. The FDA has approved immunomodulatory drugs, such as Proleukin, a recombinant IL-2 cytokine, Nivolumab, and Avelumab, which are immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, these drugs lead to side effects in patients known as immune-related
The ECJ’s judgment of 27 January 2021 in the case C-595/18 P (the ”Goldman Sachs case”) has caused a big buzz in the ever growing Private Equity sector. It confirmed the ruling of the GCEU of July 2018 case T-419/14 which in turn confirmed the Commission’s decision according to which Goldman Sachs has been held liable for an antitrust infringement committed by one of its portfolio companies. In al
The issue of corporate accountability for human rights has gained significant attention in recent years, driven by increasing globalisation, complex corporate structures, and the public’s growing awareness of the harmful effects of business activities. Alongside the rising prominence of human rights on the international agenda, the issue of environmental impacts of corporations has also become mor
Miljöpåverkan är ett ständigt återkommande ämne i samhällsdebatten. Många företag strävar efter att minimera sin miljöpåverkan, vilket kan ske genom att återanvända material i stället för att producera nya. I fallet med betongproduktion finns det flera sätt att göra den bättre för miljön. Till exempel kan rivningstegel användas som alternativ till den traditionella ballasten, som ett sätt att mins
Cash holding strategy is an important financial decision for firms. It is highly related to firms’ operation and development because cash is an important guarantee to meet the business payment and investment opportunity. However, some scholars believe that due to agency problems, too much cash holdings are likely to produce negative impact on enterprise value. Compared to listed firms on Chinese A
People’s ability to learn holds a promise for sustainability as learning is seen to enable change; yet, the prevalence of norms and values in society that reinforce unsustainability may severely challenge this process. The debate on what role learning can play is centered around the question whether people can learn from others and if so, how to enhance it. More precisely, who has to learn what fr
This thesis poses structural and behavioural competition problems in digital markets in terms of core platforms services provided by the gatekeepers under the proposed Digital Markets Act by the European Commission, where such problems are the most evident. This thesis analyses whether existing competition and more sector-specific legal tools are functional to address these problems. Traditional l
Examining the relation between Swedish households’ debt, property price and interest rates are important when forming monetary policy implications. Several studies have examined the driving factors of household debt and property price, however the results are inconclusive. This thesis differs from previous research as it includes the variable interest to income ratio, instead of debt ratio, as the
Bumblebees and other pollinators are important contributors to the ecosystem service of pollination of wild plants and crops. As in many pollinating insects, their abundance and diversity have declined in recent years, due to loss of natural habitats and fragmentation associated with urbanization and agricultural intensification. However, in urban areas, green space management beneficial to pollin
The present thesis explores the requirement of the waiting period to grant family reunification to Third Country Nationals from the perspective of human rights law. It examines how this requirement, which currently forms a significant part of immigration policies within European member states, may impact TCNs' Right to family life under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and EU
Access to water is taken for granted in water abundant countries like Sweden, but safe water supply is increasingly threatened by droughts. This thesis analyses how the Swedish water sector responded to the unprecedented drought in 2018, by analysing water security discourse through the framework “What’s the problem represented to be?”. It explores implications of the drought on water policy and h
The recent advent of 3DSG in the computer vision domain has brought powerful high-level representations of 3D environments. These representations strive to mimic human perception and facilitate the extraction of meaningful insight from visual data. This research has led to framework like Hydra, which creates a real-time, persistent spatial perception system that creates a complete 3D map of their
The objective of this report is twofold: to optimise the extraction method of lignin from spruce altering a few process parameters and to investigate the use of lignin as a hydrophobic barrier in food applications. The process used was STEX (steam explosion) pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and MWL (milled wood lignin) extraction using a mixture of dioxane-water. The lignin was then c
