Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of entrepreneurial orientation, digital marketing orientation, and innovation orientation on competitive advantage and marketing performance in micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Central Java, Indonesia. Using the SEM-PLS method, data were collected from MSME owners who have adopted digital marketing. The results show that entrepreneurial orientation and digital marketing orientation enhance competitive advantage, which in turn positively impacts marketing performance. However, innovation orientation, although positively contributing to competitive advantage, does not have a significant direct effect on marketing performance. Competitive advantage plays an important role as a mediator between strategic orientation and marketing performance. These findings enrich the strategic management literature by clarifying the still inconsistent role of innovation orientation in MSME performance. Practically, this study recommends that MSME owners and policymakers prioritize entrepreneurial activities and digital strategies to enhance competitiveness and marketing success in a dynamic business environment.

Abstract

Transportation has significant role in urban life. Commuting students in universities in Semarang have several options in transportation modes. This study aimed to examine student preferences for train and airplane transportation modes and factors influencing it. Data of 110 students at several Semarang City Universities compiled by purposive sampling were then analyzed using descriptive statistics method. The results showed that most students prefer train transportation modes rather than airplanes. Regarding the level and quality of service, trains provide better services at cheaper, faster, and more practical prices. Meanwhile, based on the quality of service, aircraft transport offers better safety and comfort than Train transport. Although there are differences in the level and quality of comfort, students preferred to use train since the differences are not significant.

Abstract

This study examines the roles of collaboration and innovation in developing digital business ecosystems. It employs a narrative literature review of core scholarship on business ecosystems, digital platforms, and collaboration–innovation practices in both global and Indonesian contexts. The synthesis indicates that digital business ecosystems constitute multilateral interdependence structures that require alignment of roles and activities across actors to realize a shared value proposition. Collaboration therefore becomes a structural necessity, as ecosystem innovation is modular and complementary, and value emerges only when contributions from diverse parties are coherently integrated. Digital platforms accelerate ecosystem growth through generativity and network effects, yet they also demand collaborative governance to keep collective innovation coordinated and goal-oriented. Empirical evidence further shows that collaboration facilitated by platforms, hubs, or intermediaries speeds up the exchange of data, knowledge, and resources, triggering technological, service, governance, and business-model innovations that enhance ecosystem performance and sustainability. However, many ecosystems still face limitations in the depth of collaboration—often not progressing to co-production or joint R&D—resulting in suboptimal collective innovation. This study enriches digital ecosystem theory and offers practical implications for orchestrating collaboration and sustaining innovation in digital business ecosystems.

Abstract

Food MSMEs play a strategic role in the local economy by sustaining household entrepreneurship, creating jobs, and supporting regional economic continuity. This study analyzes the entrepreneurial characteristics and business development capacity of food MSMEs in Semarang City based on owner gender, age, education, business form, business age, employment size, and geographic distribution. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, the study draws on secondary data from 3,506 business units. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation, and chi-square tests. The findings show that most businesses are owned by women, operate as sole proprietorships, and employ only 0-1 workers. The average owner age is 49.96 years, while the average business has operated for 11.61 years. Statistically significant but weak associations were found between owner gender and employment size, owner education and employment size, and owner education and business duration. The study concludes that Semarang's food MSME ecosystem is supported largely by mature household-based microenterprises but still faces limitations in scaling labor capacity.
