Innovation is a fundamental factor in the growth of any organisation. Innovation implies a different way of thinking. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a series of beliefs, principles and values that emphasise a change in the entrepreneurial mentality towards innovation in value, without abandoning traditional technological innovation, which continues to be an essential factor in maintaining and increasing competitiveness. The aim is to go deeper into the clarification and structuring of the elements that articulate the entrepreneur's mentality in order to identify and take advantage of new opportunities for value creation. Focusing on the entrepreneur as a value innovator, i.e. one capable of identifying and satisfying an unmet need for an unattended market. The resources and capabilities available to organisations will be key to the successful development of all types of innovation. The current crisis situation, the need to be sustainable in the use of resources and the appearance in recent years of an increase in open research through Open Science platforms, require a new vision in the creation of resources through the open space.

Therefore, it is necessary to develop a series of beliefs, principles and values that emphasise a change in the entrepreneurial mentality towards innovation in value, without abandoning traditional technological innovation, which continues to be an essential factor in maintaining and increasing competitiveness. The aim is to go deeper into the clarification and structuring of the elements that articulate the entrepreneur's mentality in order to identify and take advantage of new opportunities for value creation. Focusing on the entrepreneur as a value innovator, i.e. one capable of identifying and satisfying an unmet need for an unattended market. The resources and capabilities available to organisations will be key to the successful development of all types of innovation. The current crisis situation, the need to be sustainable in the use of resources and the appearance in recent years of an increase in open research through Open Science platforms, require a new vision in the creation of resources through the open space. In this open context of easy access to multiple resources and idle capacities, inefficiently applied or with excess installed capacity, the innovator's work as a coordinator of resources is key. Thus, capturing, organising and deploying resources in i-SPACE can lead to a revolution. For its part, sustainability not only affects the generation of resources and capacities, but should also be the reason for developing sustainable business models from both a social and environmental perspective. In this way, we will explore social innovation as the process of designing, developing and growing new ideas that aim to meet social needs. Analysing and understanding the motivations of the entrepreneur, as well as the resources and contextual conditions necessary to develop sustainable business models from both social and environmental perspectives. Technology-based entrepreneurship will also be approached by the group from a descriptive perspective of the current situation and by delving into the figures of the founding team of these companies. The business modality known as start-up will be analysed through its business model, target client and value proposition. Furthermore, the use and applicability of new management methodologies for these companies, such as the well-known Business Model Canvas and lean start-up approaches, will be examined in depth from a critical perspective. It is important to stress that innovation capacity is one of the key factors of competitiveness. One of the lines will be aimed at investigating the implementation of key aspects in the management of business innovation at business or sectoral level at both regional and national level. These more territorial studies will focus on the European Union, based on data collected from official statistics such as Eurostat and CIS. A complementary area will be the adjustment of Innovation with new ways of working, such as Smart Work, which will allow an increase in employee satisfaction, as well as improvements in the company's climate and economic ratios. In companies and environments where innovation is a priority, the generation of human resources policies that are aligned with the workers' interests and that achieve their commitment and loyalty becomes crucial. The CVPP as well as the new work and professional approaches framed as Smart Work, which include the possibility of self-management of working time, the use of collaborative network services or the generation of virtual knowledge centres, will allow us to achieve the proposed objective.
