Abstract

Digital transformation has become a pivotal driver of innovation and competitiveness in micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), particularly within the creative economy. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis using Scopus as the primary data source and VOSviewer for visualization to examine the intellectual landscape of digital transformation in MSME entrepreneurship. The findings reveal that entrepreneurship, digital economy, and digital transformation are the dominant research themes, with emerging interest in sustainability, artificial intelligence, and platform-based business models. The temporal analysis highlights a shift from early studies on digital adoption and entrepreneurship education toward more recent discussions on economic development, sustainability, and innovation-driven digital ecosystems. The co-authorship and country collaboration networks indicate strong research connections among the United States, China, India, and Russia, but also reveal gaps in contributions from underrepresented regions. This study identifies key research trends, highlights knowledge gaps, and proposes future research directions, including sustainable digital entrepreneurship, ethical platform governance, and policy frameworks for inclusive digital transformation. The insights provided serve as a foundation for further academic inquiry and strategic policymaking to ensure the equitable and sustainable growth of MSMEs in the digital economy.

Abstract

Gold has long been regarded as a safe-haven asset, particularly during periods of economic uncertainty, and its price is influenced by a complex interplay of macroeconomic, financial, and technological factors. This study employs a bibliometric analysis using Scopus as the primary data source and VOSviewer for network visualization to systematically examine the academic literature on the determinants of gold price fluctuations. The findings reveal three dominant research themes: macroeconomic influences (inflation, exchange rates, interest rates, and oil prices), gold’s role in financial markets and investment strategies, and emerging computational methods for gold price forecasting, particularly machine learning and artificial intelligence. The study highlights an increasing focus on gold’s relationship with cryptocurrencies and electronic trading, reflecting the evolving landscape of financial markets. Additionally, the co-authorship network analysis identifies key contributors and research clusters, indicating a growing interdisciplinary approach to gold price research. Despite the extensive body of literature, gaps remain in areas such as behavioral finance, sustainability, and digital finance innovations, presenting opportunities for future research. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for economists, policymakers, and investors, offering a comprehensive roadmap for understanding the evolving dynamics of gold prices.

Abstract

The adaptability of employees in the hospitality industry is crucial for maintaining service quality and operational efficiency in an evolving market. This study examines the impact of Reskilling, Upskilling, and Continuous Learning Culture on Adaptability among hospitality employees in West Java using a quantitative approach, with data collected from 150 hospitality employees through a Likert scale (1-5) questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS 3). The results indicate that Continuous Learning Culture has the strongest influence on Adaptability, followed by Upskilling and Reskilling, suggesting that fostering a continuous learning culture within organizations significantly enhances employees’ ability to adapt to changes, while Reskilling, though still impactful, plays a comparatively smaller role. This study contributes to the literature by demonstrating that sustained learning engagement is a stronger predictor of adaptability than isolated training initiatives and provides managerial recommendations for developing structured learning environments to improve workforce agility in the hospitality sector.
