Abstract

Background: Business model changes have far-reaching implications for overall company performance, including social and environmental aspects. Business Model Canvas (BMC) is often used as a framework for designing business models. However, the concept of sustainability involving social and environmental aspects is often not fully integrated into using BMC. In other words, BMC tends to focus more on economic aspects alone. Urban studies have dominated research on business and entrepreneurship. Studies on rural entrepreneurship, especially in developing countries, are still minimal, with 78% (10 documents) of journal article publications in 2021 dominated by social sciences (26%), business, management, accounting (19%), and agriculture and biology (7%). In addition, there is a research gap in economics, especially regarding the role of women in organic farming, although women are more often involved in organic farming than men.Purpose: This research uses the Business Model Canvas for Sustainability (BMCS) to develop a business model centered on village-based sustainability issues, specifically focusing on the Mekar Sari Women Farmers Group (WFG) in Bogor, Indonesia.Design/methodology/approach: The research was conducted in Neglasari Village, Bogor District, West Java, Indonesia. The research was conducted for 3 months for one case study from July to September 2024. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling with a descriptive-qualitative approach. The research used primary and secondary data from literature studies, field observations, and interviews with 20 respondents selected based on the criteria set. It was then analyzed with the business unit's BMCS framework, the results of which were used to identify the 10 main elements of BMCS.Finding/Result: The results showed that the Mekar Sari Women Farmers Group business had implemented most of the BMCS components. Elements identified include vision and mission, value propositions, customer segments, competitors, stakeholders, revenue model, key resources, key activities, key partnerships, and cost structures. Conclusions: Based on the identification of the business model currently implemented by WFG Mekar Sari, it shows that WFG has constraints on market competition, customer segments, and key partnerships that affect the revenue model of Mekar Sari's WFG organic vegetable business. To improve business performance, WFG Mekar Sari needs to adopt a sustainable business strategy for its future business development.Originality/value (State of the art): This study contributes to developing sustainable business models by addressing the gap in integrating sustainability into the BMC framework, especially in village-based businesses. This study shows that BMCS is one of the tools that can be considered for designing more sustainable businesses. Keywords: BMCS, business model, organic vegetables, sustainability, women farmer group (WFG)

Abstract

Background: Innovation in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia is essential for business development, requiring SMEs to foster innovative work behavior. However, some Indonesian SMEs still struggle to implement innovative work behavior, especially in utilizing digital technology for innovation in this digital era.Purpose: This study aims to explore the role of digital readiness in mediating organizational culture’s impact on the innovative work behavior of SME employees in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach: The research employed a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) analysis. The survey was distributed to SME employees in Indonesia. This research used 185 respondents for further data analyzing.Findings/results: The results reveal that digital readiness only mediates the relationship between market culture and innovative work behavior. On the other hand, digital readiness does not mediate adhocracy and clan culture to innovative work behavior. Conclusion: Results interestingly suggest that digital readiness significantly mediates market culture to innovative work behavior. Adhocracy and clan cultures may directly instill innovative work behavior, as confirmed by previous studies.Originality/value (State of the art): This is the first study to investigate how types of culture are associated with innovative work behavior mediated by digital readiness. Keywords: Innovation, innovative work behavior, organizational culture, digital readiness, SME

Abstract

Background: Entrepreneurial performance is essential for start-ups' development, particularly the ability to transition smoothly from experimentation to scaling. Start-ups' performance in Indonesia remains challenging in that the failure rate is up to 90% within the first five years.Purpose: This study aims to assess the direct influence of personal and environmental factors through experience characteristics on entrepreneurial performance in start-ups in Indonesia and the indirect influence of these factors through experience characteristics on entrepreneurial performance.Design/methodology/approach: This study employed a quantitative approach, applying Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling to analyze data collected from questionnaires distributed to 268 start-ups in Indonesia.Finding/Results: The results indicated that personal and environmental factors significantly enhance experience characteristics and entrepreneurial performance. This study also found that personal and environmental factors through experience characteristics significantly enhance entrepreneurial performance in Indonesian start-ups.Conclusion: This study evaluated how experience characteristics as a mediator strengthen the impact of personal factors on entrepreneurial performance and weaken the impact of environmental factors on entrepreneurial performance. This research possesses academic and managerial implications, particularly for advancing scientific progress in entrepreneurial performance models in start-ups in Indonesia.Originality/value (State of the art): Start-ups must enhance their entrepreneurial performance by focusing on personal factors, including entrepreneurial education and passion, as well as environmental factors like developing a more dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem, improving marketing techniques, and aligning with global market demand. Keywords: business, entrepreneurial ecosystem, entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurship environment, start-ups' development

Abstract

Background: Generation Z, as increasingly dominant consumers with unique shopping behavior characteristics, plays a vital role in the e-commerce market.

Samples were taken using the purposive sampling technique with a Likert Scale. Data analysis was carried out using SmartPLS.Findings/Results: The results showed that brand image and advocacy significantly influence Generation Z's intention to purchase skincare in Indonesia. In contrast, brand credibility and electronic word of mouth do not significantly positively influence Generation Z's purchase intention for skin care.Conclusion: The study's results show that digitalization and social media significantly influence company activities, especially in marketing. Referring to the research findings, companies should strengthen the brand image and advocacy through marketing campaigns highlighting the brand's unique value and encouraging customers to share positive experiences, such as loyalty programs or customer communities. On the other hand, strategies related to brand credibility and eWOM need to be re-evaluated to increase their effectiveness or shift to more impactful efforts. Thus, companies can prioritize resources on aspects that significantly drive consumer purchase intention.Originality/value (State of the art): This study's results provide insight into the effectiveness of marketing strategies in influencing Generation Z's purchasing behavior and explain the inconsistency of previous research findings. Keywords: brand image, brand credibility, brand advocacy, electronic word of mouth, purchase intention
