Aim: Partnerships have been leveraged to advance the regenerative medicines (RMs) development. This study analyzed the evolution of partnership landscape for regenerative medicines (RMs). Methods: Partnership agreements publicly announced from January 2014 – June 2020 were described. Results: 1169 partnership agreements with total amount of US$63,496 million were identified. Most agreements concerned RMs that were for oncology (25.3%), in the discovery or preclinical phase (66.9%) and gene-based products (45.3%). The most common partnership type is collaborative agreements without licensing. The partnerships between ‘Biotechnology company and not-for-profit organizations’ represented the largest number (n = 416; 35.6%). ‘Big Pharma’ preferred collaboration and licensing agreements with a higher amount. Conclusion: Collaborations between highly specialized players with complementary expertise promote the successful translation of scientific discovery to RMs.

The study revealed that there was a positive relationship between working capital and financial sustainability among Christian denomination in Ghana.

The study recommends to churches in Ghana to seek an enhancing relationship between their working capital and financial sustainability to prevent a possible closure of the church. Not-for-profit organizations must seek self-support through income generation and diversification to improve their Liquidity. Again, not-for-profit organizations must have a positive relationship between working capital and financial sustainability in that churches exist because of liquidity.

Information and communications technologies (ICTs) change the organization's rules of functioning in the contemporary world. The major challenge facing each organization is the necessity to acquire/develop its ability to create, implement and use innovative ICT methods and techniques in all processes it carries out. The study is aimed at not-for-profit organizations. They are in need of organizational, financial, and technological changes in order to fulfil their mission and build their potential effectively. Under existing circumstances these organizations are forced to efficiently use data in resource management. They have to understand that modern ICTs bring internal benefits and contribute to higher efficiency as well as enhanced quality of the services they provide. Data Discovery Systems (DD) are one of the modern technologies which help in achieving these goals. The aim of this chapter is to present the possibility of using DD systems in effective resource management of not-for-profit organizations based on the case study of a selected organization.
