Despite growing interest in organizational well-being, digitalization, and collaboration, their interrelations remain insufficiently explored in the context of small enterprises. This study addresses this critical gap by investigating how digitalization influences the organizational climate for...

This paper reviews RPA adoption in Chile and estimates its future social impact. A survey of 103 professionals - mainly from services, mining, and engineering - shows most firms have not begun implementing RPA. Early adopters prioritize strategic alignment, tech readiness, and scalability,...

This paper examines the long-memory properties of returns of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) specializing in robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) listed on the US market, as well as those of other assets such as the WTI crude oil price (West Texas Intermediate), Bitcoin, the S&P 500 index,...

Research background: The emergence of financial technology, namely robo-advice (RA), has transformed wealth management by increasing accessibility to customized financial guidance, extending beyond the realm of affluent individuals. Robo-advisors, changing the financial advice sector, use...

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are increasingly pivotal for reducing carbon emissions in supply chain management (SCM); however, research exploring their combined potential from a sustainability perspective remains fragmented. This study aims to systematically map the...

Industrial robots are essential for improving productivity and optimizing resource allocation. They help to reduce dependence on traditional labor- and energy-intensive manufacturing methods. While promoting industrial automation, industrial robots have become an important technology for...

Industrial robot application (IRA) provides an opportunity for the low-carbon development of trade. This study focuses on the green revolution of manufacturing export trade, analyzes the mechanism by which IRA affects CO2 emissions embodied in manufacturing exports (CIE), and conducts an...

This paper examines tail connectedness between various exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on artificial intelligence (AI) and some traditional assets such as bonds, equities, Bitcoin, and oil, as well as the VIX uncertainty index, using US daily data over the period from 1 January 2023 to 23...

This paper examines the linkages between occupational exposure to recent automation technologies and inequality across 19 European countries. Using data from the European Union Structure of Earnings Survey (EU-SES), a fixed-effects model is employed to assess the association between occupational...

In this paper, we analyse how robotisation is associated with industry output and its production inputs. We therefore link data on employment, robotisation and input-output relations for 15 manufacturing industries across 35 countries. Analysing the decade prior to 2018, we show that robotising...

Background: Intralogistics systems face growing challenges from globalization, individualization, and shorter product life cycles, demanding flexible and responsive solutions beyond traditional centralized control. Decentralized, agent-based approaches offer potential advantages, especially for...

This paper analyzes how the impacts of ICT, Software & Databases, and Robots on European regional labor markets (1995–2017) vary across technology life cycle phases. Motivated by theories predicting shifting skill biases between early adoption and maturity, we first identify major...

Ankara’s "techno-nationalist" policies aim to place Turkey among the innovation leaders of the 21st century. The country has already achieved notable progress in its defence industry, launched its own EV brand and is preparing a space mission. But creating "native and national" (yerli ve...

How the use of industrial robots affects value capture in fragmented global production networks, represented by global value chains (GVCs), remains an open question. I focus on the automotive industry - the largest consumer of industrial robots and one of the most traded manufacturing industries...

People in East Asia and Pacific (EAP) countries have prospered over the last few decades because of the growth in productive jobs. Do industrial robots, artificial intelligence (AI), and digital platforms threaten that development model? "Future Jobs" presents evidence that new technologies have...

Historically associated with pollution and economic decline, the Jiu valley is working hard to revitalise the region. As part of the transition process, the 'robotics valley' initiative aims to establish advanced technology development with a unique youth and education approach. Based on the...
