1. Exploring Resilience through Blockchain and Circular Economy : A Review from a Cross-Sectoral PerspectiveTatiana Tolusso, 2025, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: Resilience has become a strategic capability for organisations facing global challenges such as climate change, resource scarcity, and socio-economic instability. The Circular Economy (CE) offers regenerative models to reduce waste and optimise resources, while Blockchain (BC) provides digital infrastructures that enhance transparency, traceability, and trust across supply chains. Despite their growing relevance, research on CE, BC, and resilience remains fragmented and under-integrated. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) of 37 peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2025, mapping how CE and BC intersect to strengthen resilience. The review identified several recurring themes, highlighting how the convergence of CE principles and BC technology can bolster resilience across three crucial dimensions: 1) adaptive; 2) organisational; and 3) systemic. Among the most relevant contributions, several central aspects also emerge, including the following: a) the enhancement of eco-efficiency; b) the role of BC in reducing information asymmetries and enabling greater transparency; c) the critical importance of cooperation and shared value co-creation, fostering a glocal approach to resilience that emphasises collaboration among stakeholders. These findings offer valuable observations for facilitating the transition to CE through BC, while also highlighting important avenues for future research such as the dynamics of glocal cooperation and the latent resilience within organisations.

2. Analysis of the Effect of Eco-Efficiency on Asset Return in Food and Beverage Manufacturing Companies Listed at the Johannesburg Stock ExchangeDimakatso Hellen Malapa, Collins C. Ngwakwe, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This article examines the effect of eco-efficiency on corporate return on assets (ROA). The paper aimed to analyse whether corporate eco-efficiency performance (represented by energy consumption, water consumption, carbon emission and waste generation) affects the performance of ROA. Data on the eco-efficiency and ROA was collected from fourteen food and beverage companies listed in the Johannesburg Stock Exchange for a period of ten years (2012 to 2021). Using the STATA Software, the data was analysed by applying the Generalised Method of Moment (GMM) statistical technique, which enhanced the statistical analysis robustness. Findings from the GMM analysis showed different results. On the one hand, the results indicate that energy and water consumption in the food and beverage companies have a positive (but insignificant) effect on ROA. On the other hand, the results show that waste generation has a negative (but insignificant) effect on ROA; and that carbon emission has a negative and significant effect on ROA.

3. Revolutionizing Hotel Operations with AI : A Case Study on the Power of ChatGPT and Gemini IntegrationPongsakorn Limna, Tanpat Kraiwanit, Tanatorn Tanantong, Todsanai Chumwatana, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This study investigates the implementation and impact of ChatGPT and Gemini in a four-star hotel in Ao Nang, Krabi, Thailand, during January–February 2024. Through a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative analysis and qualita-tive insights, the research assessed operational metrics across multiple service areas and gathered detailed feedback from the hotel owner. The study revealed significant improvements in operational efficiency, with check-in processing times decreasing from 3.3 to 2.7 minutes and AI system adoption increasing from 82% to 93%. Gu-est satisfaction scores showed notable enhancement, with overall satisfaction rising from 4.6 to 4.8 out of 5. The AI systems demonstrated impressive multilingual ca-pabilities, handling 28 languages with 98.7% accuracy, while document processing achieved 99.2% accuracy across various types. Internal communications benefited from 32% time savings, with efficiency rates exceeding 96% across all categories. Staff adaptation, though initially challenging, was successfully managed through comprehensive training and gradual implementation, resulting in improved job satisfaction and team collaboration. The findings provide empirical evidence that strategic AI integration can enhance both operational efficiency and guest satisfa-ction while complementing human service elements. This research contributes va-luable insights for hospitality managers considering AI implementation and offers a practical blueprint for successful technology integration in the hospitality sector, while also highlighting areas for future research in different hotel categories and geographical contexts.

8. R&D and education resources in innovation processes : evidence from Slovenia and the Visegrad GroupMitja Ruzzier, Tanja Kosi, Doris Gomezelj Omerzel, 2016, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This article provides a cross-country analysis of the efficiency and effectiveness of innovation processes in the European Union countries, with a focus on Slovenia and the four countries of the Visegrad Group (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia and Poland). By examining relationships between different composite innovation indicators, our study reveals patterns in the input-output-outcome relationships at different stages of the innovation process and highlights country-specific bottlenecks and possible efficiency gains in the use of R&D and education resources. Benchmarking the effectiveness and efficiency of innovation systems and processes across selected countries is valuable for different target groups, to whom we offer insights into the R&D environment, barriers to technology transfer and possible improvements in innovation policies.
