From February 2022, researchers from POLIMI, the UPM and KTH have conducted a comprehensive empirical investigation of the relationship between the adoption of digital technologies, digital-enabled dynamic capabilities and the implementation of circular economy practices.
The results of the investigation provided interesting food for thought for practitioners and academics to properly understand the dynamics between the three concepts.
Particularly, the insights offered can help to understand how to properly exploit digital-enabled dynamic capabilities to support the implementation of the circular economy transition in the industrial context especially identifying:
(i) the digital technologies with the highest potential to contribute to the circular economy practices implementation;
(ii) the digital-enabled dynamic capabilities and their mediating role between the adoption of digital technologies and implementation of circular economy practices;
(iii) the role of contextual factors in influencing said relationship.
The results obtained offered interesting insights for practitioners, academics, and policymakers as well, while also paving the way for future research by identifying uncovered research areas and aspects that still need further clarification to properly exploit DTs for the implementation of the circular economy.
Alberto Urueña has a PhD in Economics and Innovation Management at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), an Executive MBA at IE Business School. He is currently associate professor at the School of Industrial Engineering at UPM. In the last twenty years Alberto has directed a wide variety of studies, reports and publications in the National Observatory of Digital Transformation, the center of the Spanish Government in charge of monitoring the state and progress of digital transformation. He has also published in impact scientific journals (Technological Forecasting and Social Change, International Journal of Information Management, Journal of Business Research, Journal of Risk Research and Social Science Computer Review, among others).
Alberto’s research is oriented to the sociotechnical impact on society of digital transformation. His doctoral thesis was awarded in 2014 as the best thesis in economics, management and regulation in digital transformation (Official College of Telecommunications Engineers, Spain). Alberto has strong experience in data collection, questionnaire drafting, surveying techniques and quantitative analysis techniques in digital areas. His experience, which combines academic research and analysis of real cases of companies facing it projects, has allowed him to apply models and theories from the scientific field to practical real cases, which has allowed him to act as a consultant for companies in process of digital transformation.

The presentation focuses on the performance implications of human task specialization and variety in last-mile delivery. Last-mile distribution is costly for logistics service providers and sustaining productivity in repetitive distribution tasks is essential to many organizations. Prior research points to different strategies to accomplish high service performance through the positive effects of experience: specialization to capture the benefits of repetition and variety to allow opportunities to learn. In this paper, we study the impact of team-level and driver-level experience on service performance during grocery retail distribution.
The empirical strategy includes real-world data of one depot located in Germany between January 2022 and November 2023: 223,615 customer service deliveries completed at 620 stores. The 330 drivers and 28 dispatchers at this specific depot form 3,828 unique teams.
The main results from the empirical analysis spawn various results: for the team level, we find that long- and short-term exposure to distribution channel variety positively affects service performance. Further, teams can mitigate the negative effect of service-level agreement violations when they are more specialized in distribution channels in the short term. In the case of high workloads, teams’ prior exposure to variety is beneficial. On the driver level, we find that customer-specific experience has a negative effect on service performance, while it is capable to reverse the negative effects of service-level agreement violations.
The results highlight the need for organizations to split specialization and variety into temporal and process dimensions rather than treating them as mutually exclusive. Overall, the study identifies new ways to improve service performance in last-mile distribution through a different and effective allocation of work.

The wine industry faces a highly competitive environment, making cost-effective management of the wine supply chain essential.
Literature has shown that this objective can be achieved with the implementation of horizontal collaboration strategies in logistics.
In this strategy, firms located at the same level of the supply chain cooperate to reduce costs, improve quality of service and mitigate environmental externalities.
This paper analyses the implementation impacts of a horizontal collaboration policy in the wine supply chain. To do so, we propose a cooperative game with transferable costs, in which the characteristic function is obtained by solving a novel linear programming formulation that models the joint planning of the wine supply chain. To evaluate the benefits of collaboration, we conduct a case study involving three of Chile’s largest wineries.
The results show that the use of collaborative frameworks leads to significant reductions in the logistics costs of the wine supply chain. Furthermore, we find that the grand coalition reduces the costs by 10.17% compared to the non-collaborative case. This reduction comes mainly from a decrease in the bulk wine inventory cost. We also analyse the impact of coordination costs on the savings and conduct a sensitivity analysis.

It is well known even intuitively that transformative ideas, those poised to upend the established way of doing things in a given domain, are often pushed forward by innovators who reside at the periphery of – and at times even outside – their respective fields. This journey of novelty from the margins to the core is as captivating as it is troubling to decode.
On the one hand, by virtue of their detachment from the prevailing norms that bind insiders, peripheral innovators may recognize solutions that escape incumbents’ attention.
Yet the paradox is that the same social position that allows these innovators to conjure up groundbreaking ideas hampers their quest for the backing and acknowledgment needed to develop those ideas and share them with the world: they typically lack crucial markers of credibility, social ties to insiders, and most notably, expert authority.
What processes allow peripheral actors to stake out some ground in the insiders’ own terrain, especially when their claims to novelty clash with the status quo?
Our goal in this talk is to offer an overview of some of the central theoretical and analytical insights we have been garnering in our endeavour to decode the journey of novelty from the moment it arises to moment it takes hold.
After sharing some key findings of our collaborative research, we will conclude by presenting an ongoing project which employs an experimental approach to examine the micro-mechanisms that drive outsider-led innovation and its framing.

He served as Deputy Senior Editor at Organization Science, and is currently Associate Editor at Strategic Management Journal and Management Science, Senior Editor at Industrial and Corporate Change, and Editor-in-Chief of Advances in Strategic Management.

Il settore spaziale sta assumendo un ruolo sempre più prominente in Italia. Da un ambito di nicchia, le sue implicazioni sullo sviluppo tecnologico ed economico stanno diventando sempre più evidenti anche in settori tradizionalmente distanti. Non a caso l’Italia sta lavorando per dotarsi di una legge sullo Spazio per offrire a operatori del settore e privati un quadro normativo certo.
Il convegno dell’Osservatorio Space Economy sarĂ così l’occasione per presentare una fotografia del contesto italiano, dall’upstream agli utenti finali, con uno sguardo allo scenario internazionale; per offrire l’opportunitĂ di riflettere sulle linee guida strategiche e le circostanze necessarie per garantire una crescita robusta e sostenibile a lungo termine dell’intero sistema nazionale.
Domande chiave a cui risponde il convegno
Focus sui seguenti temi:
- L’evoluzione del contesto internazionale e le iniziative europee
- Le opportunitĂ del PNRR per la Space Economy
- L’evoluzione della filiera upstream italiana
- L’analisi del segmento End User italiano
- I nuovi trend tecnologici e l’innovazione di business
- Il mercato italiano dell’Osservazione della Terra
- Contesto normativo: verso la legge Spazio
