However, few researchers have analysed the influence of human capital and its degree of transferability into new venture development. This thesis aims to explore the phenomenon of individuals leaving careers in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SME) to establish new ventures. Specifically, this thesis aims to provid

Förekomsten av tekniska standarder är fundamental för den tekniska utvecklingen och medför flera konkurrensfördelar. Standardisering kan emellertid riskera att vara konkurrenshämmande i samband med patentinnehavares användning av de rättsmedel som står till deras förfogande. Så är fallet när patenterad teknik implementeras i standarder och får status som standardessentiella patent. I utbyte mot deThe presence of technical standards is fundamental to the technical development and entails several competitive advantages. Standardization may, however, risk being anticompetitive in relation to patent holders’ use of legal remedies available to them. This is the case when patented technology is implemented in standards and is given the status as standard essential patent. In exchange for the pos

First by examining how the legislator described the requirement in the legislative history and in the text of the law and thereafter by analyzing court cases where the requirement has been applied. This is to decide

The cumulative growth that the market of automobiles has seen since the end of the second world war, has had a major impact on both the way we plan our societies and in the way we live our lives. In Sweden from 1950 to 1960, car-ownership increased five-fold, making it the most car-dense country in Europe at the time – bringing along with it major car-centric urban renewal schemes, such as ‘Norrma

Under the capitalist growth imperative, mainstream housing is connected to high social and ecological consequences. In light of the need for an alternative approach to housing, my thesis adopts a degrowth perspective to critically explore an alternative housing model: the Swedish kollektivhus (‘collective house’; co-housing). In the kollektivhus, residents have their own private apartment which is

In Sweden, buying sex is an illegal act that is also often viewed as immoral, which is understood in this thesis as sex buyers being stigmatized. The aim of this study was therefore to understand how Swedish men who buy sex describe themselves and how they discuss the criminal act of buying sex in an escort forum on the Internet. A qualitative method with a netnographic viewpoint was used wherein

The building industry, like many others, are currently experiencing the effects of the digitalization, and the increased spread of smart buildings is a result of this. Much research has been done on smart buildings and their predecessors intelligent buildings, but there is limited research available on how entrance systems should be designed for smart buildings, especially regarding their connecte

New York City's transportation infrastructure plays a critical role in shaping economic growth, housing accessibility, and community development. Challenges like congestion, inequitable transit access, and inefficient zoning regulations hinder sustainable urban growth as the city evolves. Last serving passengers in 1924, the LIRR Bay Ridge Branch remains one of New York City's few freigh

Grass pollen allergens, including Phl p 5 from Phleum pratense, are major triggers of seasonal allergic rhinitis, primarily mediated by IgE antibodies. This study investigates the genetic basis and functional characteristics of IgG1 antibodies targeting Phl p 5, possibly derived from type 2 memory B cells predisposed to IgE switching. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we analyzed variants of a high

Den förste juli 2018 införde Sverige en lag som i den allmänna debatten bru kar kallas för samtyckeslagstiftningen, eller samtyckeslagen. Den första ja nuari 2021 antog även Danmark en samtyckeslag. Samtyckeslagen innebär att Sverige och Danmark har ändrat var gränsen för straffansvar vid våldtäkt går. Tidigare krävdes att våldtäkt förövats tillsammans med ”hot” eller ”våld”. Efter reformen av On the first of July 2018, Sweden made a drastic change to its rape provision, by adopting a new legislation, commonly referred to as the ”Consent Law”. Sweden’s neighboring country, Denmark, adopted its own version of the Consent Law a couple of years later, on the first of January 2021. The newely change of the Swedish and Danish penal codes have been an important step torwards reducing rap

Problem: The Milky Way disk consists of two distinct components, the thin and thick disk, each with unique kinematical, elemental, and age-related properties. Among all the properties considered, age stands out as the only one that does not exhibit significant overlap, thereby offering clearer separation between the populations. Stellar ages, determined through isochrone fitting, are reliable main

This thesis investigates particulate matter emissions from a turbofan jet engine operated with fossil Jet A fuel and mixtures of Jet A and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), focusing on particle size distributions and total emission concentrations. The aim was to evaluate emissions from different fuel blends and sampling points, assess the performance of the designed sampling and dilution system, an

Fueled by rapid advancements and widespread adoption, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming how Design Thinking (DT) is applied in entrepreneurship. While DT is a well-established human-centered innovation framework, the integration of AI in its practical application, along with the emerging challenges and adaptive strategies, remains underexplored. To address this gap, a qualitative resear

Overheating in buildings is a growing public health hazard becoming more prevalent with climate change. The research aimed to analyse how interactions between jurisdictional scales, urban stakeholders and policies promoting synergies affect adaptation processes in cities using overheating policies in London as an example. Understanding how these interactions affect policy implementation can ensure

The aim of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of credit ratings on European firms’ capital structure decisions based on the premise of Darren Kisgen’s Credit Ratings–Capital Structure (CR-CS) hypothesis: that firms face discrete costs (benefits) associated with differences in credit rating levels. This project's empirical investigations are based on historical data from Stand

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Frågan om jordens ålder fick sitt svar först vid 1900-talets början, då upptäckten gjordes att uran sönderfaller till bly med bestämd hastighet. Genom att mäta blyisotoper i uranhaltiga mineral kunde man räkna baklänges och se hur lång tid som krävts för att den uppmätta mängden bly skulle bildas. Samma typ av beräkningar gjorda på mineralet zirkon (ZrSiO2) är i

Popular Science Summary Konsten att kunna ta bort ett syre Alla celler har DNA, som måste repareras och kopieras för att livet ska fortgå. För att kunna göra detta måste det finnas byggstenar. En av alla processer som ser till att alla delar finns i rätt mängd innefattar bara ett protein. Ett protein som får instruktioner från många håll för att gå igenom en komplicerad process som tillverkar dessThe protein ribonucleotide reductase catalyses the de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) from ribonucleotides (NTPs), using radical chemistry. It is under strict allosteric regulation, partly from the dNTPs it synthesises that regulate what substrate should be synthesised, but also from dATP/ATP, which regulates overall activity. It is a protein that is found in almost every living org
