Synthèse
This special issue addresses how firms and innovation systems navigate security challenges facing critical infrastructure systems such as energy, transportation, telecommunications, and water. As infrastructure disruptions increasingly cascade through supply chains and threaten economic competitiveness, the intersection of innovation and security has become central to industrial dynamics and firm strategy. The call seeks contributions examining how technological, organizational, regulatory, and strategic innovations build infrastructure resilience while contending with geopolitical tensions, cyber threats, environmental pressures, and dual-use technology dilemmas.
The special issue examines innovation processes across multiple levels: firm-level adaptations to infrastructure vulnerabilities, sectoral coordination among heterogeneous actors, and policy frameworks managing tensions between openness and security controls. Contributions should explore how organizational innovations developed in response to infrastructure threats subsequently reshape infrastructure provision and adjacent sectors, and how innovation systems balance knowledge networking with security governance.
