- A portuguese case study on performance monitoring in technology transfer and valorisation centres using the balanced scorecard approachPublication . Silva, Alexandre; Cardim, Sofia; Leite, JoaquimAligning strategic, operational, and technical priorities is critical for effective governance in Research and Development (R&D) organisations, especially those engaged in technology transfer and innovation. This article explores the development and application of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) as a structured performance monitoring tool for a Portuguese Centre for the Valorisation and Transfer of Water Technology. Situated within the national network of technological interface centres, the research investigates how the BSC, supplemented by a strategic map, can support integrated management control by aligning organisational efforts with strategic goals. The study employs a qualitative case study methodology, with empirical data collected through three semi-structured interviews involving the centre’s CEO and two mid-level managers. The content analysis of interview transcripts enabled the identification of fourteen strategic objectives and their respective indicators, which were systematically mapped across the BSC’s four perspectives and interlinked through causal relationships. The results underscore the BSC’s potential to improve internal strategic coherence and monitoring capacity and to attend as a transferable framework for other public or private research centres facing similar challenges. The study offers both practical comprehensions for institutional management and conceptual contributions to the literature on performance management in the context of science, technology, and innovation.

- Processes of change in the field of corporate sustainability and the contributions of the holders of capital: a case study in a company in the textile sectorPublication . Pires, Amélia M.M.; Rodrigues, Fernando J.P.A.; Antunes, EduardoFactors with a negative impact on the environment, such as the excessive use of natural resources or global warming, are the basis for adopting more sustainable and environmentally friendly measures. A process of change that does not allow anyone to be left out, neither people nor companies, and that has gained relevance as the latter have come to realize that adopting the path of sustainability could translate into added value. The textile sector, from which reports of efforts in this direction come to us, is an example of this, so, within the scope of an analysis and reflection around the main concepts of sustainability, we will seek to understand the role and contributions of the holders of capital for sustainability. This study explores the role of capital holders in promoting sustainability in business through an exploratory case study conducted at Sourcetextile, a company operating in the textile sector. The results found indicate that Sourcetextile presents a sustainable behavior, based on the three pillars of sustainability, and that this is due to the social and environmental concerns of entrepreneurs, which creates a kind of permanent tension between economic and environmental objectives. and social, without which the company would only be concerned with economic objectives.
