Title: Critical success factors that influence the corporate venturing process Seminar date: 2013-05-02 Course: ENTN39 Internship and Degree Project Authors: Martin Zündorf & Marcus Holgersson Advisor/s: Joakim Winborg Purpose: We investigated the influence of different factors on the corporate venturing process. Therefore we combined several factors from the organizational level with cha
This essay compares the two Swedish municipalities Landskrona and Värnamo, in order to understand the difference in achieved integration on the labor market. By using Mill’s method of disagreement, and conducting interviews with persons with key positions in the integration process, based on theories of integration, the essay reaches the conclusion that authorities can be the difference between su
Planetsystem bildas tillsammans med en stjärna då ett gas- och stoftmoln kollapsar av sin egen gravitation. Ur denna kollaps bildas en protostjärna, omgiven av en så kallad protoplanetär skiva bildad av det överblivna materialet. Då stoftkorn i skivan kolliderar bildas större och större partiklar. När kilometerstora is- och stenblock, eller planetesimaler, har bildats, kan dessa kollidera med varaIn models of dust growth in protoplanetary discs focus is typically on coagulation, a mechanism which unfortunately seems incapable of forming particles larger than centimeters. The main reasons for this are that collisions between larger particles lead to bouncing or fragmentation rather than sticking, and that particles approaching meter-sizes drift radially inwards in the disc due to interactio
Project CAD: Importance and Relevance of 3D CAD Based Education in Industrial Design Field – a Degree Project for Master of Fine Arts in Design This master’s degree project was carried out from January to October 2012. Project deadline was moved from the spring term to the autumn term as I needed more time to finish the research. The viewpoint of the research was to focus on the main issues in the
Following World War Two emigration from Central and Eastern Europe, in particular, has grown in spite of increasingly strict border controls. Given this rise in migration pressure from the East during a strictly regulated period, the 2004 EU enlargement of Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia threatened to transform the migration landsc
After the dust had settled from the second world war, western Europe experienced increased levels of material wellbeing. Education, income, and security were on the rise. This led to a wave of new values of self-expression and a shift away from security, economic and class based political conflict. As this also coincided with a rise of mass communications and increased education more people than e
Recent archaeological excavations have uncovered an Iron Age temple house in Vång providing new context to the centrality of Iron Age central Blekinge in Sweden, as well as its development into the Medieval period. This thesis aims to examine how that development unfolded using the lens of affordance theory combined with a GIS assisted source pluralistic analysis. Comparing Iron Age monuments with
This thesis investigates differences and similarities in the funerary material of Late Bronze Age Cyprus in order to answer questions about a possible uniqueness of the pit/well tombs at the Late Bronze Age harbour city of Hala Sultan Tekke. The thesis also tries to explain why these features stand out as singular, compared to the more common chamber tomb, and the reason for their existence. The t
Research has shown that the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial teams, in terms of educational background, has a positive impact on venture performance as a result of the access to diverse skill sets and perspectives. However, the heterogeneity of the team can also lead to communication inefficiencies due to the diverse viewpoints and cognitive differences. Forewarning methods, understood as the prep
The study offers a prescriptive definition of a sustainable corporation from a human-rights-based approach. It defines a sustainable corporation as any business created with or that has human rights and the environment as its fundamental values, and integrates as well as implements such values into all aspects of its operations. This definition implies that all companies their sizes or sector notw
Ecosystem services that people depend upon for their well-being are being lost at an alarming rate. These services include the provisioning of natural resources, food, medicine, flood protection, climate regulation, water purification, and biodiversity retention. In the U.S., the main threat to these services comes from the rapid pace of land conversion. In just a twenty- year period, an area the
With the development of society the risks have become more complex and difficult to overview. Not least because of the inter¬dependencies that exist between them. This master thesis aims to study critical societal functions dependencies in the primary care in Skåne and to investigate the possibility of intro¬ducing some kind of basic security levels in those functions. The study includes four main
We have studied the use of complimentary alternative medicine (CAM) among 233 consecutive breast cancer patients operated on at the Lund University Hospital, Sweden between 2002 and 2004. Questionnaires were administered preoperatively (n = 233), and again 3-6 months post-operatively (n = 167) and one year after surgery (n = 88). At baseline, 14,5% used CAM, 3-6 months post-operatively 14,4% used Bruket av naturläkemedel och andra faktorer som kan interagera med behandling av bröstcancer kartläggs i en pågående studie hos bröstcancerpatienter i Lund; i artikeln redovisas basdata för 233 patienter. Vid inskrivningen använde totalt 14,5 procent av patienterna naturläkemedel, vid 1-årskontrollen 18,2 procent. Sammanlagt 35 olika preparat användes, varav soja och övriga fytoöstrogener, vitlök,
Popular Abstract in Swedish Parallellt med att kommunerna under 1990-talet fick ett utvidgat ansvar för t.ex. vården av och omsorgen om äldre och funktionshindrade gavs de större frihet att lokalt bestämma över sina organisationsformer. Omständigheterna ledde till ett starkt kommunalt reformtryck, inte minst genom de reformförslag som på olika sätt och i varierande grad utmanade den traditionella The 1990s was a period characterized by a strong pressure for reform in the Swedish municipalities. The care manager reform, i.e. the initiation of a position within the administration - the care manager - whose work tasks are concentrated around needs-assessment practices only, was one of many reform proposals. Within a fairly short time span a great number of municipalities decided to implement
Little is known about how gendered understandings of patients can inform professionals’ discretionary actions and decisions to include or exclude in clinical practice. Using Connell's poststructuralist perspectives on gender as an analytic framework, this article aims to investigate how professionals’ articulations of depression are framed by signs of masculinity and femininity, and how these arti
During the Romantic period, translation played a key role in the mediation of reform ideas from Britain to the Nordic countries, and many translators of texts aiming at social reform wished to instigate change in their home countries. This article focuses on how Henry Brougham’s programme for popular education, as presented in Practical Observations upon the Education of the People (1825), was mad
