Exploration and exploitation have opposite natures; therefore, balancing the two presents a key challenge for firms. Recent studies have argued that firms can combine exploration (exploitation) capabilities with exploitation (exploration) partnerships to surmount this obstacle. However, little...

Dynamic capabilities are a major driver of strategic entry into new industries. Building on the dynamic capabilities approach and on strategy literature, I develop a model for strategists' assessment of entry. I examine two specific dynamic capabilities, namely absorptive capacity and new...

While extensive research studies exist on the influence of AI solutions on organizations as a whole, there is a paucity of comprehensive studies examining the adoption of these solutions in product development and subsequent management processes. This article presents an exploratory...

Objective: The objective of the article is to investigate the environmental dynamism (ED) conditions for entrepreneurial bricolage (EB) to function as the mediator between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and new product development (NPD). Research Design & Methods: This research was conducted...

Crowdsourcing, which is a relatively new phenomenon, offers a variety of potential marketing initiatives for the future expansion of SMEs. The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of social media-facilitated crowdsourcing on the capability to integrate knowledge, which ultimately results...

Research has consistently sought empirical evidence showing the benefits of developing big data related dynamic capabilities as a way to strategize big data operations, but done little exploration of what contributes to the development of such capabilities. To fill this gap, this study proposes...

This study aims to investigate the impact of business intelligence readiness (BIR), innovative supply chain process integration (ISCPI), and agile innovative products (AIPs) on the sustainability of green supply chain performance (SGSCP) in manufacturing companies (MFs) in growing Middle Eastern...

Sustainable product development requires integrating eco- and open innovation. Traditional Design Thinking (DT), while effective for iterative product improvement, often lacks the capability to address environmental considerations comprehensively, necessitating new approaches to balance consumer...

The increasing environmental pressures on businesses have driven a global shift toward sustainability, particularly within small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Despite the growing adoption of open innovation and circular economy (CE) practices, a gap remains in understanding how open...

This paper empirically examines how foreign technologies impact firms' product innovation; specifically, we consider the moderating effects of perceived political instability and informal competition. This study uses the strategy tripod view theory to develop a novel theoretical model to explain...

This paper studies the interaction between process and product innovations and their distinct role in firm growth dynamics. We differentiate empirically and theoretically two types of process innovations: foundational processes that advance production technology and cost-reducing processes that...

Public procurement requirements and voluntary standards are increasingly used to foster environmental product innovations. However, quantitative evidence on their individual and joint effects is absent, and their conceptualization remains at an early stage. This paper makes two contributions....
