Summary: This study aims to identify the factors that affect inter-organizational collaboration in interconnected infrastructure projects. It utilizes a systematic literature review and Q-methodology to gain insights from practitioners in the Netherlands. The study identifies two perspectives on collaboration: a holistic, goal-oriented perspective and a people-oriented perspective. Managing these perspectives and addressing differences can enhance inter-organizational collaboration and improve project performance.

Summary: Close collaboration between infrastructure owners is crucial for sustainable development in next-generation infrastructure projects. However, data sharing and management among parties involved in infrastructure projects are often overlooked. This study investigates the status of collaboration and data sharing between infrastructure owners in inter-organizational infrastructure projects and reveals the challenges faced in managing and sharing data. The findings highlight the interrelation between collaboration and data sharing in horizontal inter-organizational collaborations and emphasize their importance in the execution of infrastructure projects.

Summary: This study aims to assess the contribution of interprofessional education for pre-graduate students from eight study branches. The results indicate that this type of education helps students feel more confident in their ability to communicate and collaborate, involves patients in their care plan, and fosters the competence and autonomy of the post-graduate students in their own professional field. It also enriches the definition of patients' roles.

Summary: Background: Frailty and multimorbidity are common in geriatric rehabilitation care (GRC). Proper care of these patients requires optimal interprofessional collaboration (IPC). Methods: A mixed method pre-post study was conducted over 15 months to develop IPC in GRC teams. The study included training programs, data collection through surveys and observations of team meetings, and data analysis of ADL independence and inpatient days before and after the project. Results: The study showed improvement in interprofessional belonging, commitment, and overall identity, as well as improvements in shared values, context, structure & organization, group dynamics & interaction, and entrepreneurship & management. The number of inpatient days was significantly reduced. Conclusions: The GRC teams showed a shift towards more IPC and better representation of patient needs, resulting in a decrease in inpatient days. Continued development and investment in collaboration with the patient are necessary to further improve IPC.

Summary: This paper addresses the lack of attention for the behaviours and agency of actors in organizations in the sustainability transitions literature by focussing on practices of inter-organizational collaboration in the transition to circular construction. The research shows how reflective interventions can assist in the transformation of critical points of intersection through five processes, contributing to the sustainability transitions literature. It also highlights the importance of giving more room for the agency of actors in projects through creating experimental environments for reflective interventions.

Summary: This study explored team members' experiences in the socialization process for becoming a collaborator in an interprofessional team. It found that the perceived confrontation between interprofessional professionalism and uni-professionalism is a key theme. Interprofessional professionalism adherence and team-centered accountability were found to facilitate interprofessional socialization, while uni-professional culture and immature interprofessional collaboration competencies disrupted the process.

Summary: In this study, the impact of business process digitalization on technology transfer intensity is examined, with inter-organizational collaboration as the mediating mechanism. Data collected from 211 firms in Vietnam shows that: (1) digitalization positively influences inter-organizational collaboration, (2) inter-organizational collaboration positively affects technology transfer intensity, (3) the effect of inter-organizational collaboration on technology transfer intensity is strengthened when technology commercialization potential is high, and (4) the effect of digitalization on technology transfer intensity is mediated by inter-organizational collaboration. These findings highlight the importance of considering technology commercialization potential as a critical factor in technology transfer, and managing its interaction with inter-organizational collaboration to maximize the benefits of technology transfer. The study provides practical implications for technology firms aiming to enhance their technology transfer outcomes.

Summary: Interprofessional education (IPE) is important in health professional education, but little is known about the impact of early IPE experiences on student understanding of effective teamwork. This qualitative study found that most first year university students had a Stage 1 understanding of integration between work practices, and a Stage 2 understanding of the dimensions of interprofessional teamwork. Based on these findings, a learning trajectory for IPE is proposed with pedagogical strategies to support students in their readiness for interprofessional teamwork.
