... These and other innovation platforms are based on the integration and variety of different specializations: in manufacturing skills, services, environment, culture. The platforms recombine and potentially multiply many supply chains (not just the industrial ones), around "driving ideas" on new ways of understanding life and work (Rullani et al. 2012). These platforms can be geographically and sectorally focused on the combination between networks of knowledge-intensive services in the "post-industrial" city (Cappellin, 2012) and a variety of social experiences and handicraft, agricultural and manufacturing traditions that are rooted in small towns, districts or rural systems. ...

Industrial districts, cities, and other local reproductive systems should be considered still as a fundamental structure of multiscale policies of industrial development in contemporary Italy. However the challenges brought about by the present phase of globalization, multiplied by the effects of the last international economic crisis and the following recession, give to the prospects of industrial development a more dramatic meaning, which is referred here as the need of industrial renaissance. Discontinuities in local innovation and internationalization processes should be managed, and new and traditional production systems helped to find a lease of good life in Italy. In this context the local level of the industrial economies and policies, though fundamental, becomes clearly more dependent on processes which take place on larger territorial scales. The paper tries to illustrate what are some of the requisites for effective combinations of different scales of industrial processes and policies in contemporary Italy, focussing in particular to the national level.

The tourism sector is constantly evolving and the market demands rapid changes and updates of the tourism industry. In recent decades, hypercompetition of the economic scenario has entailed the maturity of many businesses, attributing a central role to innovative processes and their dissemination in the economy of company management. At the same time, it has defined the need of monitoring the application of innovations, in order to control and improve the performance of companies and destinations. This study aims to analyze and define innovation in the tourism sector. Research actions included, on the one hand, in-depth interviews with experts, identifying innovation in terms of process and product, digitalization and sustainability policies and, on the other hand, evaluating the interaction between these factors, in terms of substitutability and complementarity in management scenarios, in order to identify which one is essential to be competitive in the global scenario. The Fuzzy method and Choquet's integral were used to aggregate the opinions of experts in a single "representative" preference. This method allows not only to evaluate the relative importance of each pillar, but also and especially, the level of interaction, or element complementarity and substitutability, between pairs of factors.
