Credit card based research has shown that when a credit card based payment is used, the volume, value and type of products purchased increase. Whether this is due to the credit element or to the ‘cashless or mobile’ element of the transaction is not known. The notion that the tangibility of cash influences perceptions of money is not novel, but it is untested. This discussion paper suggests that under conditions of cash, there is awareness (conscious/unconscious) that a possession of value transferred and this perception may well have a direct impact on people’s perception of money and their spending behaviour.Item M-learning and mobility(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2009) Vieira, DanielaItem Mobile operators : the natural players in M-advertising(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2009) Vasco, FernandoItem Firms going mobile: a short review on mobile workforce management advantages(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2009) Figueiredo, PedroItem SME’s Alliance Dynamics in the Mobile Marketing Industry(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2009) Hannibal, Martin; Rasmussen, Erik S.This paper presents a case study of the two similar sized, new, technology-based firms acting as alliance partners in the Mobile commerce industry. The analysis describes how the alliance dynamics in our case study relate to seminal research in the field of business alliance formation. Contrary to the established predictions we find that the negative influence on alliance performance described as a consequence of the dissolved routinized alliance pattern by seminal authors is not present. At the same time, the case study shows that internalization of complementary assets does not by necessity result in dissolution of the business alliance as argued from a resource and competence based perspective.Item M-commerce : from usability to adoption(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2009) Rodrigues, Carlos; Duarte, Gonçalo MonteiroItem Outdoor Advertising in Portugal - New Definition of Outdoor Advertising Media(ISG, 2011) Carrillo Durán, Maria Victoria; Lopes, Paula Bela Rosa Luis; Varela, Miguel Nuno AbreuThe Outdoor Advertising in Portugal hasn’t been well studied, but this sector of advertising has been expanded which enabled different kinds of Media advertising.

In the end, the criticism to the econometric models of the German school and, specially, the example of International Transparency turned out to become an ideological fight between two suspicious worlds. This paper wil enable to conclude that, in reality, corruption creates a death weight on the Economy, ie, it decreases the commerce acts and thus ends up by contributing to the countries’ impoverishment. I suppor the idea that corruption really contributes to the reduction of the economies’ potential and it is therefore an impoverishment factor of the States.Item Economic context for venture capital activity(ISG, 2011) Rodrigues, Joaquim SérvuloItem Internet based start-up and business – entrepreneur dilemma about “on-line added value”(ISG, 2011) Ordysinski, TomaszInternet has become a environment of virtual enterprises which like on traditional market change their owners (are sold and bought). There are also many new on-line initiatives (“start-ups”), which are the object of trade just after or even before they were put on-line. To perform such a transaction the price must be determined. As on traditional market also Internet companies are trying to increase their value. The problem here is that the share of tangible assets is very often less than “1%” of their final price.

Those factors should be crucial entrepreneurs of Internet business cause they create something which can be called “on-line added value”.Item Marketing Communication 2.0: Leveraging Multimedia Brands through Social Media Networks(ISG, 2011) Baumann, SabineSocial technologies allow interactive personal communication with company stakeholders.

These changes allow 21st century entrepreneurs to act beyond the mere creation of businesses, using new values, not only economic ones, and being able to undertake a social function of change and economic development, more human, more sustainable and more intelligent. Nowadays, the quality of entrepreneur is basically considered an attitude towards life, not a skill, and that is useful and necessary in every field of social life. This trend questions the old promotion methods of entrepreneurship, based on management training and business plans. The “Tree model for the development of entrepreneurial competences” suggests a systemic approach of education for entrepeneurship, based on the qualification of people and their potential, which comprises, in the root, a profile of key behavioural and performance competences, in the trunk, experimental pedagogical procedures and, in the fruits, real results (not simulated or didactic) within group projects, transversal to people context, regardless of age, activity or economic situation.Item Means to an end: micro credit in the fight against poverty(ISG, 2011) Seabra, PedroItem Entrepreneurship, Business Angels, grants and government funds to entrepreneurship and economic development(ISG, 2011) Prudente, JaimeItem Ensinar e Avaliar os alunos no Ensino Superior - o espírito de Bolonha e o estado social(ISG, 2011) Amaro, Ana AiresNo novo contexto social e tecnológico, confirmado no Ensino ao nível europeu pelo modelo de Bolonha, analisam-se as características gerais do Ensino Superior em Portugal, através dos seus agentes principais (Professores e Alunos), modo de ensino e avaliação.
