Abstract

The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to significant advancements in various industries, including the creative sector. IoT technology enables the interconnection of devices and systems, allowing for new forms of interaction and automation. However, the potential of IoT to generate new business opportunities within the creative industries has not been fully explored. This research aims to investigate the impact of IoT on the creative sector, focusing on how businesses can leverage IoT to innovate, enhance customer experiences, and streamline operations. The study adopts a qualitative research approach, combining case studies and interviews with industry professionals to explore the current applications of IoT in design, media, entertainment, and the arts. The findings indicate that IoT technologies have the potential to revolutionize the creative sector by enabling personalized experiences, optimizing creative workflows, and creating new revenue streams. Businesses are increasingly adopting IoT to offer interactive experiences, such as smart installations, personalized content, and enhanced product design. The study concludes that IoT can offer substantial business opportunities for companies in the creative sector, especially when it comes to enhancing customer engagement and integrating technology into traditional creative processes.

Abstract

Start-ups increasingly operate within a landscape where technological innovation intersects with social responsibility, yet empirical understanding of how these ventures manage creative technologies for sustainable impact remains limited. This study addresses the critical gap in knowledge regarding the operationalization of ethical objectives within technology-driven entrepreneurial contexts. The research aims to investigate the strategies, organizational practices, and mechanisms through which socially-conscious start-ups leverage creative technologies to achieve measurable social and environmental outcomes. A qualitative multiple-case study design was employed, involving ten start-ups in the creative technology sector. Data collection comprised semi-structured interviews with founders and key team members, systematic observations of operational processes, and document analysis including mission statements and project reports. Thematic coding and triangulation were applied to identify patterns, relationships, and emergent strategies in aligning technological adoption with social objectives. Findings reveal that intentional integration of technology with organizational culture and resource allocation significantly enhances social impact, while collaborative team structures and iterative feedback mechanisms reinforce ethical operational practices. Variations across cases highlight the influence of managerial decision-making and sectoral context on effective implementation of social initiatives. Start-ups that align creative technologies with social conscience achieve both operational efficiency and sustainable societal benefit. The study concludes that responsible innovation is contingent upon deliberate strategic planning, technological competence, and ethical leadership, providing a framework for guiding future socially-conscious entrepreneurial endeavors.

Abstract

Local culture significantly influences customary practices within Muslim societies, shaping unique expressions of Islamic teachings across diverse regions. In Central Java, Indonesia, traditional practices are deeply intertwined with Islamic values, creating a distinctive cultural-religious identity. While these practices enrich local traditions, they also raise questions about the balance between cultural preservation and religious orthodoxy. This study aims to explore the influence of local culture on customary practices in Central Java’s Muslim communities, examining how cultural elements align with or diverge from Islamic principles. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews with community leaders, religious scholars, and practitioners of traditional customs in three rural areas. Observational data and document analysis of local texts and records supplemented the interviews, offering a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between culture and religion. The findings reveal that local culture plays a pivotal role in shaping religious practices, particularly in rites of passage, social ceremonies, and communal worship. These findings highlight the dynamic relationship between religion and culture, emphasizing adaptation and negotiation. The study concludes that cultural sensitivity and context-specific approaches are essential for understanding and preserving the diversity of Islamic expressions.
