Abstract

This volume emerges in an especially competitive, challenging and uncertain context, around which the current digital transformation, artificial intelligence and intelligent machines tend to take over from the human workforce. However, creativity combined with some irrationality of aptitudes and behaviour, as well as the growing importance of the network value (or utility) of future expectations and those realized, reveal the importance of directing additional research efforts towards better understanding of the importance of developing behavioural and technical competences, especially those oriented towards entrepreneurship and innovation systems, which distinguish human capital as a highly differentiating production factor which, together with knowledge, form the endogenous motors of growth and change.
