This paper presents an overview of a case study on a certificate in university social responsibility auditing, based on three European universities: Edimburgh, Kaunas and Porto. The goal is to develop an auditor training for students based on experiential learning, that is coherent and replicable in diverse contexts and that involves the various stakeholders. The project is based on a set of benchmarks of university social responsibility developed in the context of a European project, namely:  Research, Teaching, Support for Learning and Public Engagement; Governance; Environmental and Societal Sustainability; and Fair Practices.

PurposeThis paper aims to analyze how a real estate business model innovation developed in a real estate network, with a special focus on the relationship between ego network structure and the innovative development of the business model. Design/methodology/approachThe paper is a single case study of a Swedish real estate network of 38 actors. The data were collected at the individual actor level using multiple sources: 12 semi-structured in-depth interviews, 94 min of meetings and 28 written contracts. The empirical findings resulted in four propositions. FindingsThis study demonstrates that it was primarily the building user who was behind the innovative development of the real estate business model innovation, whereas the real estate company acted as a network hub and network resource coordinator. The ego network structures significantly affected the outcome. Practical implicationsReal estate companies should act as hubs, coordinating all the network actor resources the building user needs in the value-creation process. To be effective hubs, the representatives of real estate companies must create extensive personal and open ego networks to acquire central network positions. Originality/valueFew studies examine business model innovation, particularly in the real estate context. Though large real estate businesses usually operate in the networks of various actors, analyses based on the network perspective are also lacking. This case study builds a valuable understanding of how network processes in real estate networks can be used as tools to foster real estate business model innovation, which in turn can lead to more competitive real estate companies and building users.

This article highlights the relevance of the location of HEIs in low-density territories in Portugal, using the Polytechnic Institute of Portalegre as a case study. Based on the American Council Education model and following a surveying approach to faculty, staff, and students, this research accounts for the total spending of incoming academics, other nonlocal university members and their visitors, that positively impacts regional development. A demand-side approach was followed so that indirect and induced effects could also be estimated. The main aim of this research paper is to quantify the total impact arising from the location of the Polytechnic in a given region, measured by economic and social indicators such as the financial return from public funds invested in the region, the number of jobs created, and the impact on the local gross domestic product. The results show an impact of more than EUR 17 million in the territory where the Polytechnic operates, representing 3.68% of the local GDP. The institution was also found to be the third major employer in the region, responsible for the creation of 471 jobs that account for 2.25% of the local economically active population.
