The digitalization technology transformation of entrepreneurship has positive impacts but also increases inequality and disrupts the sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study aimed to examine the impact of digitalization technology transformation on rural entrepreneurship and explain its mitigation efforts using exploratory sequential mixed methods. The policy acceptance model method was used to reduce uncertainty in analyzing entrepreneurial behavior patterns. Data were collected using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews equipped with ethnographic observations. The results showed that the digitalization technology transformation of rural entrepreneurship supports various new potentials. These include decent work opportunities, family entrepreneurship, and local economic growth. However, the technology increases inequality and the fear of traditional markets that could disrupt achieving other sustainable development goals (SDGs). This inequality and the risk of uncertainty could be mitigated by the social solidarity economic transformation business model based on the potential of local humanist wisdom. Therefore, this study could provide scientific information and implications for social and institutional policies. It could also contribute to the literature on new institutional and social entrepreneurship innovation theories related to the wave of Kontratieff Schumpeter....
The rapid development of big data and artificial intelligence has an increasingly profound impact on society and business, and the demand for talents in the market has changed dramatically. In the context of the development of new business forms, this paper analyzes the new demands of enterprises for business talents by conducting surveys on enterprises, re-examines the orientation of new business talents training in application-oriented universities, and puts forward that talents training needs to follow people-oriented, industry- universal, practical innovative and socially engaged principles. In the era of digital economy and intelligence, new business talents must have strong practical application ability and interdisciplinary knowledge. Applicationoriented universities have to reform the talent training model and carry out all-round reform in terms of majors, courses, teaching methods, teachers and evaluation mode. The purpose of the reform is to continuously optimize and innovate the business talent training concept and training model....
PPP is an opportunity for faster development for many countries, including Poland, which must not be wasted. PPP is one way to deliver and finance high-quality public infrastructure. A private partner, investing in the development of public services, can provide resources that that enable the implementation of new management and organizational solutions in offering high-quality services, sharing risk with the public partner. Public budgets, including the state budget, are not enough to implement many public projects, and therefore there are private financing sources needed to implement infrastructure investments and provide public services. In Poland, despite the continuous increase in the number of projects in the PPP formula, the implemented projects account for only a small percentage of total investment expenditure. The conducted research indicates barriers and opportunities for the development of PPP in the coming years in Poland....
In this essay, we study the effect of investment in health services on income across gender. People generally do not consider factors like insurance when researching income, instead, they consider health status or other factors. In many low and middle-income countries, self-pay costs have dominated health care financing. This direct payment approach is inefficient and inequitable. Many families will face financial disaster or bankruptcy because they cannot afford to pay for medical care. About 44 million families in the world are facing catastrophic expenses, and about 2500 families are struggling because of direct medical payments. This means that it is important to access health care with quality assurance, which keeps people from being financially at risk due to costly medical services. This essay will examine the influence of investment in wellness insurance on income, in addition, impact differs between genders....
The course intention of print design is to teach students about layout design and how a physical print book is designed and formatted. By incorporating Augmented Reality (AR), the physical print book is believed to achieve outcome-based learning objectives for undergraduate students in improving their design skills. Besides, it cultivates the environmentally-conscious mindset of the new generation by reducing the number of pages in printing. Two years have been taken to collect four cohorts of students' feedback on the outcome-based learning objectives using a questionnaire. The data collected was then analysed using a (quan-QUAL) method with descriptive analysis for the closed-ended questionnaire and Thematic analysis for open-ended responses after experiencing the AR implementation in their print design course. Findings on the descriptive analysis show that they have a high degree of agreement on "enabled to achieve learning outcomes" and "academically stimulating" in the subject area. Then in the teaching area, "teaching was well organised", the "The lecturer's explanations improved understanding", " Encouraged student to learn ", "Encouraged student to participate", and "overall the lecturer was performed well". Finally, from the thematic analysis, three themes have emerged: constructive, learningoriented, and Positive Connection of learning with material and instructor. The study identified that students enjoyed and the willing in learning the AR experience in the traditional graphic print, and it motivates students to explore modern skills and be more expressive. The further expansion of the research would be on evaluating only on teaching or the subject itself....
