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...

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...

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...

This study investigates how entrepreneurial orientation (EO) influences firm performance, focusing on both environmental and financial performance. Drawing on the resource-based view (RBV) and knowledge-based view (KBV), the study develops an integrative framework in which green product and...

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...

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...

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...

To remain competitive and make effective decisions in increasingly challenging markets, firms must integrate internal and external knowledge by embedding knowledge management strategies and technologies into their operations. This study aims to examine the roles of strategic foresight and...

Digital technologies (DTs) have resulted in innovations that have fueled global knowledge-based economic development. This systematic review of the literature focuses on the relationship between DTs and innovation. Drawing on the extant literature, we investigate 685 articles published in 41...

This study advances the theoretical and practical understanding of meaning-driven innovation by proposing a modified design thinking (DT) framework grounded in hermeneutic principles. Unlike conventional DT approaches that prioritize user needs and problem-solving, this research reframes...

As consumer behavior in circular supply chains becomes increasingly critical for sustainability, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving end-of-life (EOL) product return decisions is necessary. This study investigates how consumer-level open innovation influences EOL product return...

The discrepancy between platform positioning and user needs, termed positioning deviation, is a critical determinant of user churn and potential platform failure. Platform service innovation can be potential remedy to correct positioning deviation. As such, understanding the mechanisms and...

Frugal Innovation (FI) offers cost-effective, value-creating solutions that are especially relevant for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) operating under significant resource constraints. Despite the growing interest in FI, micro-entrepreneurs (micropreneurs) often lack a clear,...

Background: This study conceptualizes supply chain ambidexterity through two capabilities, supply chain adaptability and agility. Accordingly, it investigates the impact of supply chain adaptability and agility on green product innovation (GPI) and supply chain sustainability in Jordanian...

While the importance of buyer transparency in supplier innovation has been recognized, its underlying mechanisms remain underexplored. Drawing on the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) framework, this study examines the mechanism through which buyer transparency-conceptualized as operations...

Product development in academia and its technology transfer are crucial activities for the sustainable development of society. Nevertheless, transferring academic research is a complex process that requires mature research results aligned with market needs. Existing approaches frequently focus...

Companies are currently facing the challenge of having to transform their linear approach to product design into a circular one in order to remain competitive. The reason for this is the increasing pressure in the supply of primary resources, consumer and employee expectations, as well as...

This research examines the effects of Industry 4.0 design principles on innovation performance within a dynamic capabilities framework. It highlights the mediating and moderating roles of dynamic capabilities and environmental dynamism in the relationship between Industry 4.0 and innovation...

Despite the relevance of team boundary spanning in new product development (NPD), there is great deal we still do not know about these activities. For example, little is known about how these activities affect the development of team identification, an important emergent state with critical...
