The proposed article examines the domestic and foreign experience of supporting the innovation process in attracting private, public and foreign investments. The historical experience of the USSR in the implementation of strategic innovative projects has been studied, which has shown that special conditions for budget financing of implementing organizations, as well as strong ties between enterprises, contribute to achieving the goals, although they lead to resources’ overspending. Administrative and policy-making approaches have also been used in the practice of South-East Asian countries in order to concentrate financial resources to achieve strategic goals. Attention is paid to the US experience in bridging the gap between basic research and the practical application of their results through the mechanism of venture financing of innovative companies. Universities play a special role in the innovation process in the United States, which are the basis for the formation of innovation clusters. At the same time, the experience of creating techno-parks in modern Russia has shown that it has not yet been possible to significantly influence the innovative activity of private business. The experiences of China and the countries of Eastern Europe show that foreign investments have a positive impact on innovative development in the conditions of high investment attractiveness and the political will of the state to defend its sovereignty. At the moment, Russia cannot count on foreign capital to build a national strategy for innovative development. The domestic and foreign experience of interaction between the defense civil sectors of the economy is considered. Based on our analysis, we have prepared recommendations for improving approaches to supporting the innovation process in Russia, taking into account the current state of the external environment.

This study determines the possibilities of using stock market instruments as a source of financing for small and medium-sized businesses during the COVID-19 coronavirus crisis, as well as developing proposals for expanding the system of public support measures to popularise this mode of financing. The authors put forward a hypothesis that the stock market is an effective tool for small and medium-sized businesses to use in times of crisis, but that it is rarely used at the moment. The existing methods of state support for small and medium-sized businesses using stock market instruments have been systematised and reviewed. The procedure for granting subsidies to small and medium-sized businesses has been defined and the procedure for selecting issuers has been highlighted. Foreign experience of supporting small and medium-sized businesses through the stock market, using the United States and Polish examples, has been studied. The difficulties encountered by entrepreneurs in using the stock market instruments in Russia have been analysed and proposals for overcoming them have been made. Conclusions have been made on the effectiveness of this way of supporting small and medium-sized businesses in a difficult economic situation. A proposal to expand the system of state support and popularise this method of financing among small and medium-sized businesses has been formulated.

The Moment

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious epidemic in the United States. It affects patients of all ages, race, and socioeconomic status (SES). The current care of these patients typically manifests after sequelae have been identified after discharge from the hospital, long after the inciting event. The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of identification and management of the TBI patient from the moment of injury through long-term care as a multidisciplinary approach. By promoting an awareness of the issues that develop around the acutely injured brain and linking them to long-term outcomes, the trauma team can initiate care early to alter the effect on the patient, family, and community. Hopefully, by describing the care afforded at a trauma center and by a multidisciplinary team, we can bring a better understanding to the armamentarium of methods utilized to treat the difficult population of TBI patients.

Common Situation

Universities and corporates, in Europe and the United States, have come to a win-win relationship to accomplish goals that serve research and industry. However, this is not a common situation in Latin America. Knowledge exchange and the co-creation of new projects by applying academic research to solve company problems does not happen naturally.To bridge this gap, the Design School of Universidad de los Andes, together with Avianca, are exploring new formats to understand the knowledge transfer impact in an open innovation network aiming to create fluid channels between different stakeholders. The primary goal was to help Avianca to strengthen their innovation department by apply design methodologies. First, allowing design students to proposed novel solutions for the traveller experience. Then, engaging Avianca employees to learn the design process. These explorations gave the opportunity to the university to apply design research and academic findings in a professional and commercial environment.After one year of collaboration and ten prototypes tested at the airport, we can say that Avianca’s innovation mindset has evolved by implementing a user-centric perspective in the customer experience touch points, building prototypes and quickly iterate. Furthermore, this partnership helped Avianca’s employees to experience a design environment in which they were actively interacting in the innovation process.

BACKGROUND HbA1c between 6% and 6.9% is associated with the lowest incidence of all‐cause and CVD mortality, with a stepwise increase in all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality in those with an HbA1c >7%. • There are 30 million individuals in the United States (9.4% of the population) currently living with Diabetes Mellitus. OBJECTIVE Improving HbA1C levels in patients with uncontrolled Diabetes with a focused and collaborative effort. METHODS Our baseline data for Diabetic patients attending the outpatient department from July 2018 to July 2019 in a University-affiliated hospital showed a total of 217 patients for one physician. • Of 217 patients, 17 had HbA1C 9 and above. We contacted these patients and discussed the need for tight control of their blood glucose levels. We intended to ensure them that we care and encourage them to participate in our efforts to improve their outcome. • We referred 13 patients that agreed to participate to the Diabetic educator who would schedule an appointment with the patients, discuss their diet, exercise, how to take medications, self-monitoring, and psychosocial factors. • If needed, she would refer them to the Nutritionist based on patients’ dietary compliance. • The patients were followed up in the next two weeks via telemedicine or a phone call by the PCP to confirm and reinforce the education provided by the diabetes educator. RESULTS Number of patients that showed an improvement in HbA1C values: 11 Cumulative decrease in HbA1C values for 13 patients: 25.3 The average reduction in HbA1C: 1.94 CONCLUSIONS Our initiative to exclusively target the blood glucose level with our multidisciplinary approach has made a positive impact, which is reflected in the outcome. • It leads to an improvement in patient compliance and facilitates diabetes management to reduce the risk for complications CLINICALTRIAL NA

This chapter examines the scaling and diffusion of green entrepreneurship between 1980 and the present. It explores how entrepreneurs and business leaders promoted the idea that business and sustainability were compatible. It then examines the rapid growth of organic foods, natural beauty, ecological architecture, and eco-tourism. Green firms sometimes grew to a large scale, such as the retailer Whole Foods Market in the United States. The chapter explores how greater mainstreaming of these businesses resulted in a new set of challenges arising from scaling. Organic food was now transported across large distances causing a negative impact on carbon emissions. More eco-tourism resulted in more air travel and bigger airports. In other industries scaling had a more positive impact. Towns were major polluters, so more ecological buildings had a positive impact.

The Impact

In the past two decades, most states in the United States have added authorization for pharmacists to administer some vaccinations. Expansions of this authority have also come with prescription requirements or other regulatory burdens. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of these expansions on influenza immunization rates in adults age 65 and over. A panel data, differences-in-differences regression framework to control for state-level unobserved confounders and shocks at the national level was used on a combination of a dataset of state-level statute and regulatory changes and influenza immunization data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Giving pharmacists permission to vaccinate had a positive impact on adult influenza immunization rates of 1.4 percentage points for adults age 65 and over. This effect was diminished by the presence of laws requiring pharmacists to obtain patient-specific prescriptions. There was no evidence that allowing pharmacists to administer vaccinations led patients to have fewer annual check-ups with physicians or not have a usual source of health care. Expanding pharmacists’ scope of practice laws to include administering the influenza vaccine had a positive impact on influenza shot uptake. This may have implications for relaxing restrictions on other forms of care that could be provided by pharmacists.
