Thematic scope of the conference is devoted mainly to marketing perspective with the focus on phenomena such as: relationships, networks, interactions, collaborative tools and practices, communication and value co-creation. Nevertheless, the conference has a multidisciplinary character, as CID can be approached also from other than marketing perspectives e.g. R&D project management, open innovation, innovation management and organisational change management. “The Book of Abstracts” devoted to business section comprises 13 extended abstracts – presented in alphabetical order – that have been carefully selected on the basis of a double-blind peer review process. The articles present both the theoretical and practical aspects of CID concepts. The authors of this year’s conference have carried out theoretical discussions, empirical studies, data analyses, case studies, and demonstrated public sector practices. The need of promoting “collaborative innovation development” in public sector is the result of the growing demands for public innovation. This Book of Abstracts aims to advance “collaborative innovation” as a cross-disciplinary approach to studying and enhancing public innovation. The articles involved in this book explain the special conditions and the growing demand for public innovation, and demonstrates how it can be enhanced through multiactor collaboration. The theoretical and also based on empirical researches discussion leads to the formulation of many practical implications that can be used in future studies of collaborative innovation in the public sector. The presented Book of Abstracts contains a set of extended abstracts of conference participants. It included the issues of inter-organizational cooperation for the development of innovation in the regions, participation of various stakeholders in building marketing and technical solutions for cities and regions, comparative studies of countries in the field of the labor market in the profession of professionals in health care in Poland and Germany, or analysis of entrepreneurial intentions of students in Poland and Spain. A lot of space in the study dealt with issues concerning cooperation and support of various entities in the field of tourism development in regions, intelligent transport systems and shaping the branding of cities and places. All these activities require the support and consultation of many stakeholders. The authors, based on literature analyzes and the concept of conducting research, indicate also the necessity to conduct future research in the scope of shaping the desired smart city concept or future competencies of employees. 5 CID Conference 2019 – International Scientific Conference on Collaborative Innovation Development Poland, Bialystok, June 10–11, 2019 On behalf of the conference hosts, we would like to express our gratitude to the members of the Scientific Board the members of the Organising Committee, the Keynote Speakers and all the Authors for their effort and willingness to take part in CID conference 2019. We would like also to thank Foundation for the Development of Bialystok University of Technology for their support. We hope that this conference will foster the exchange of new ideas and promote new contacts between researchers on the CID concept. We wish you an inspirational and fruitful conference, and hope that you will enjoy everything the conference and the beautiful city of Białystok have to offer!

The opinions expressed and arguments employed herein do not necessarily reflect the official views of OECD member countries. This document and any map included herein are without prejudice to the status of or sovereignty over any territory, to the delimitation of international frontiers and boundaries and to the name of any territory, city or area. © OECD 2019 │ 3 Foreword Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) like blockchain are a relatively recent arrival in the world of finance, but are already driving new forms of financial innovation, new breeds of financial products, and creating new processes and platforms. Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) are one of the most prominent applications of blockchain for finance, allowing for an innovative and inclusive way of financing for small and medium-sized companies (SMEs). Over the past two years the use of ICOs has gone from ‘too small to care’ to ‘too big to ignore’ for markets and regulators alike. Much of the discourse around ICOs to date has focused on the uncertainty of the applicable regulatory framework for ICOs and crypto-asset markets. This report takes the analysis further, discussing “tokenomics” and limitations in ICO structuring which can give rise to conflicts of interest and expose investors to significant risks. It analyses issues around valuation, accounting and allocation of value, as well as trading of tokens.
