The Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was utilized to analyze the effects.Result — The results indicate that social and technological challenges contribute to a sustainable competitive advantage. However, open innovation does not significantly influence the enhancement of a sustainable competitive advantage.Practical implications  — The study suggests that the government should support MSMEs in addressing technological disruption by offering digital training to expand their market reach.
