The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the health, economy, and social sectors, and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) worldwide, including in Indonesia. This paper examines the use of social media and e-commerce with an entrepreneurial orientation to enhance the business performance of MSMEs. The study should serve as a model for improving the quality of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in the Jambi Province, in Indonesia. The research employs quantitative and qualitative approaches. The latter method employs in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and observation, whereas the former uses the partial least squares method (PLS). The findings and discussions conclude that social media adoption positively affected the performance and entrepreneurial orientation of MSMEs during the said period. Similarly, e-commerce positively affected the performance and entrepreneurial orientation of MSMEs. Entrepreneurialism and social media adoption had a significant impact on the performance of MSMEs, and due to its entrepreneurial orientation, e-commerce influenced the performance of MSMEs.

This research aims to study celebrity endorsement in the context of social media when done by sports celebrities and its influence on purchase intention. Four dimensions have been studied: word of mouth, brand image, brand trust, and brand attitude. By relating these variables, we seek to answer the following questions: Will consumers be influenced by a sports celebrity that they admire to buy a product/service from a brand that they support? Will the brand’s components be valued as a result of celebrity endorsement? Using a questionnaire shared on social networks, 303 valid answers have been obtained. Our statistical analysis has used a structural equation model and the results have been analyzed using SmartPLS software, which has confirmed all the model assumptions. Therefore, celebrity endorsement has an impact on brand image, word of mouth, brand attitude, and brand trust. Furthermore, it directly affects purchase intention. The effectiveness of celebrity endorsement has been verified in the context of social media and this research can thus help marketeers understand the importance of using sports celebrities to endorse brands. Implications for brands have been identified, based on the research results.

Research on social entrepreneurship highlights how important resources are since a lack of them may undermine a social organization's activity and mission. To maintain or increase the amount of resources available, the social entrepreneur needs to manage his/her personal network linkages via social media to connect with current stakeholders and seek new ones. This research uses primary data collected from a survey of social organizations to see whether the social entrepreneur’s network reliance on social media increases the amount of resources available for the social organization. The primary data was collected between January and March 2020. The results obtained from 313 social organizations in Portugal show that the social entrepreneur’s network linkages have a direct and an indirect effect. Directly, managing the social entrepreneur’s linkages with stakeholders seems to attract resources for the social organization. The indirect effects occur via social media usage, firstly, by seeking and establishing relationships with new stakeholders, and secondly, by managing the personal linkages with the current network of stakeholders.

El Impuesto sobre el incremento de valor de los terrenos de naturaleza urbana (IIVTNU), más conocido como plusvalía municipal, ha sido uno de los tributos más cuestionados por los problemas derivados de su aplicación y por las continuas modificaciones sufridas por las sentencias del Tribunal Constitucional, lo que ha obligado a realizar importantes cambios en su cálculo. Sin embargo, y a pesar de las continuas reformas, la última de 2021, el IIVTNU sigue teniendo importantes problemas que no se han sabido corregir. Además, no se dispone de estimaciones oficiales sobre los efectos presupuestarios de la nueva normativa, ni tampoco parece que se vaya a establecer algún tipo de compensación desde la Administración General del Estado a los Ayuntamientos por la previsible pérdida de recaudación fiscal, al tratarse de una capacidad fiscal delegada a las entidades locales. Finalmente, el IIVTNU presenta muchos más problemas de recaudación que otras figuras tributarias, como el Impuesto sobre Bienes Inmuebles o el Impuesto sobre Actividades Económicas. En este artículo se abordan todas estas limitaciones y se propone un conjunto de alternativas para mejorar la capacidad fiscal del IIVTNU, tanto a nivel general como específicamente para los ayuntamientos gallegos.

The growth of digital technologies in the economy has created new opportunities for entrepreneurs and organisations (Berman, 2012). The digital world environment, supported by technological devices (e.g., mobile computing) and social media platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram), has opened new ways to create new digital business models and media channels (Vasconcelos & Rua, 2021; Ciasullo & Lim, 2022; Miháldinecz & Rua, 2022; Rodrigues et al., 2022). Multinational organisations, but also small companies, do all or most of their business on the web (e.g., Google, Amazon, Facebook) (Capatina & Rancati, 2017; Jeansson et al., 2017; Pinto & Silva, 2019). The unique characteristics of digital technologies have provided entrepreneurs and organisations with many tools that can be used to innovate and create new ventures (Berawi et al., 2020). For example, open innovation and crowdsourcing facilitate co-creation and customer feedback in the development of new products, services, websites or applications (Gassmann et al., 2010; Musiello-Neto et al., 2022; Rua et al., 2023). Similarly, crowdfunding platforms (e.g. Kickstarter, Indiegogo, Go Fund Me) have made it easier and faster to finance a social or business project (Bernardino & Freitas Santos, 2020). Because of the internet, new digital business models (e.g. freemium, subscription, on-demand, affiliate, drop shipping, consulting, advertising, blogging, digital media) exist and could be used to sell products and/or services. In addition, business models (features and value of offerings) would continue to evolve even after launch due to competition and environmental changes. Digital entrepreneurship is the practice of pursuing new venture opportunities offered by new media on internet technologies (Antonizzi & Smuts, 2020). Therefore, entrepreneurs and organisations in a digital economy need to be aware of market opportunities to develop new ideas and business models and communicate their value propositions to potential customers and investors (Nambisan, 2016). This special issue aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the digital economy, while addressing the question of how entrepreneurs and organisations are dealing with an increasingly digital world. The papers in this special issue present research findings from a variety of contexts. In the first article, Silva, Moutinho and Paço examine the relationships between entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship policies and e-commerce. In the article, the authors aim to analyse whether entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship are antecedents of e-commerce, as well as the bidirectional relationship between e-commerce and entrepreneurship. The study focuses on a panel of two European regions, Scandinavia (Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland) and Iberia (Portugal and Spain), between 2012 and 2020. The relevance of the groups studied is enhanced by the fact that they are culturally different and have different perspectives on the growth of e-commerc
经济中数字技术的增长为企业家和组织创造了新的机会(Berman, 2012)。在技术设备(如移动计算)和社交媒体平台(如Facebook、Instagram)的支持下,数字世界环境为创造新的数字商业模式和媒体渠道开辟了新的途径(Vasconcelos & Rua, 2021;Ciasullo & Lim, 2022;Miháldinecz & Rua, 2022;Rodrigues et al., 2022)。跨国组织,以及小公司,在网络上完成全部或大部分业务(例如b谷歌,亚马逊,Facebook) (Capatina & ranati, 2017;Jeansson et al., 2017;Pinto & Silva, 2019)。数字技术的独特特征为企业家和组织提供了许多可用于创新和创建新企业的工具(Berawi等人,2020)。例如,开放式创新和众包促进了新产品、服务、网站或应用程序开发中的共同创造和客户反馈(Gassmann et al., 2010;musello - neto等人,2022;Rua et al., 2023)。同样,众筹平台(如Kickstarter、Indiegogo、Go Fund Me)也让社交或商业项目的融资变得更容易、更快(Bernardino & Freitas Santos, 2020)。由于互联网的存在,新的数字商业模式(如免费增值,订阅,按需,联盟,免运费,咨询,广告,博客,数字媒体)存在,并可用于销售产品和/或服务。此外,由于竞争和环境的变化,商业模式(产品的功能和价值)即使在发布后也会继续发展。数字创业是在互联网技术上追求新媒体提供的新的创业机会的实践(Antonizzi & Smuts, 2020)。因此,数字经济中的企业家和组织需要意识到市场机会,以开发新的想法和商业模式,并将其价值主张传达给潜在客户和投资者(Nambisan, 2016)。本期特刊旨在为不断增长的数字经济知识体系做出贡献,同时探讨企业家和机构如何应对日益数字化的世界。本期特刊的论文介绍了不同背景下的研究成果。在第一篇文章中,Silva、Moutinho和padorso研究了创业、内部创业政策和电子商务之间的关系。在这篇文章中,作者旨在分析创业和内部创业是否是电子商务的前提,以及电子商务与创业之间的双向关系。这项研究集中在2012年至2020年间的两个欧洲地区,斯堪的纳维亚(丹麦、瑞典、挪威和芬兰)和伊比利亚(葡萄牙和西班牙)。所研究的群体的相关性因其文化差异和对电子商务增长的不同观点而增强。作者使用基于面板校正标准误差模型的数据计量经济学分析。作者的研究表明,以创建新公司为基础的创业精神与以幸存公司和电子商务为基础的创业精神之间存在双向因果关系。研究还表明,以研发为基础的内部创业是电子商务的驱动因素。第二篇文章由Silva、Lima和Teixeira撰写,研究了销售人员使用销售技术作为内部创业的信息来源和激励因素。他们发现销售人员对销售技术的使用对公司的信息系统有积极的影响,进而对销售人员的企业内部行为(战略更新和风险行为)有积极的影响。作者还认为,企业的信息系统在销售人员使用技术和他们的战略更新和风险行为之间起着中介作用。在第三篇文章中,Makmor、Alam、Masukujjaman、Makhbul、Ali和Mamun基于社会支持理论和技术接受模型对社交商务网站购买意愿的影响因素进行了研究。使用详细的购买意愿模型,作者分析了在马来西亚分布的392份问卷的回答,使用偏最小二乘结构方程模型。本研究为理解影响消费者购买意愿的因素提供了新的贡献,突出了消费者信任在网络环境中的重要作用,以及与技术接受模型和购买意愿相关的社会支持(包括情感支持和信息支持)。第四篇文章由Bernardino, Freitas Santos和Silva撰写,探讨了社会企业家的个人网络联系和社交媒体平台的使用,以检查他们是否为社会组织带来更多资源。在回顾文献的基础上,提出了一个概念模型。 结构方程模型用于测试313个葡萄牙社会组织样本的假设。他们发现,社会企业家的网络联系对资源获取过程有直接(通过利益相关者)和间接(通过社交媒体使用)的影响。总的来说,他们的工作证明了个人网络作为葡萄牙社会组织资源获取的潜在决定因素的强大作用。最后,在第五篇论文中,Katrin Kizilkan旨在扩展企业家社交媒体传播行为背景下的创业融资格局和数字平台的知识。本文基于信号理论、舒尔茨·冯·图恩的传播理论和社会资本理论,对众筹行为的主要成功决定因素进行了评估。在文章中,作者提出了几个假设,并使用基于逻辑回归的多变量方法进行了测试。这些数据是从德国最大的基于奖励的众筹平台(Startnext)上的169个活动中收集的。Katrin的研究从企业家的行为方面揭示了众筹活动的成功因素,以及社会企业家在设计众筹活动时应特别注意的特征。结果强调了高质量信号对减少信息不对称的重要性。这篇文章就如何在数字环境下成功开展活动,特别是如何在基于奖励的众筹活动中有效地使用社交媒体,为企业家提供了实用的建议。总的来说,每篇论文都为企业家和组织提供了关于数字经济挑战的新见解,结合了各种理论观点和研究设计,展示了不同方法为数字经济研究提供信息的希望。事实上,数字时代为企业的发展方式带来了新的机遇,企业家和组织都可以利用这些机遇。

The expansion of social commerce websites has gradually transformed most people’s lives in terms of social interactions during leisure time. Communication has been made easier due to the advancement of information communication technology due to the fact that information sources can efficiently assist in providing the information required. Nevertheless, the possibility struggling to understand online content exists as the information may have inaccuracies and biases. By combining the technology acceptance model (TAM) and social support theory (SST), this study has developed a detailed purchase intention model to analyse relationships related to social commerce websites. Trust has been examined as the mediator in this research. The study has employed an online quantitative approach and has conducted non-probability (convenience) sampling to recruit 392 respondents. The findings demonstrate that different SS forms (emotional and informational) contain significant relationships with the TAM, trust and purchase intention. Nonetheless, perceived usefulness and purchase intention reveal insignificant relationships. Meanwhile, trust significantly mediates the association between SS and TAM constructs in this proposed model. The results also show that the proposed model has achieved a good fit and clearly explains each relationship. Therefore, the integration and extension of constructs may serve as future research paths. The findings could also be applied by marketeers and practitioners when developing social commerce websites.

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto del teletrabajo sobre el desempeño creativo en empleados profesionales a través de tres variables mediadoras: la autonomía laboral, la autoeficacia y la autoeficacia creativa. La investigación aplica un diseño cuantitativo-correlacional. La muestra es de 448 empleados evaluados online. De los resultados destaca que el teletrabajo es un escenario idóneo para que los empleados con alta formación académica puedan ampliar su desempeño creativo. De hecho, la autonomía laboral, la autoeficacia y la autoeficacia creativa son tres características asociadas a la tarea o a la personalidad del individuo que intensifican esa relación actuando a modo de recurso laboral. Además, el trabajar dos o más días por semana de forma remota se asocia con un desempeño creativo estable. No obstante, el teletrabajo de baja intensidad, específicamente el de sólo un día, disminuye considerablemente la autopercepción de desempeño creativo. Por último, los resultados también revelan diferencias de género en la autoevaluación creativa, de manera que las mujeres tienen una conciencia de ideas originales sensiblemente inferior a los hombres, en especial, cuando sólo se teletrabaja un día por semana.

La transición a la economía circular implica un cambio profundo en los patrones de producción y consumo cuyo impulso requiere actuaciones coordinadas de las diferentes políticas (ambientales, regulatorias, industriales, innovación, compras públicas...) y, en particular, de la política fiscal. La orientación ambiental en los instrumentos fiscales puede constituir un instrumento clave para la transición de la EC y la sostenibilidad. Este estudio analiza la situación actual en España, constatando la ausencia de instrumentos de beneficios fiscales que favorezcan la EC para, posteriormente, identificar aquellos que pueden presentar potencialidades para promover la EC y la sostenibilidad. El artículo pone de manifiesto el volumen y la diversidad de estos mecanismos fiscales, el coste en la recaudación, así como también las figuras con una mayor incidencia, lo que ha permitido destacar las potencialidades, adversidades y retos que presenta la política de beneficios fiscales en España para el impulso de la EC y la sostenibilidad.

El artículo pone de manifiesto el volumen y la diversidad de estos mecanismos fiscales, el coste en la recaudación, así como también las figuras con una mayor incidencia, lo que ha permitido destacar las potencialidades, adversidades y retos que presenta la política de beneficios fiscales en España para el impulso de la EC y la sostenibilidad.","PeriodicalId":35769,"journal":{"name":"Revista Galega de Economia","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47865945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A pandemia da Covid-19 ten un efecto considerable nas desigualdades sociais. Este artigo ten como obxectivo identificar, medir e describir os cambios nas desigualdades de renda en Galicia despois da pandemia. Para isto, calcúlanse diferentes indicadores de desigualdade de renda que permiten analizar a súa evolución antes e despois da pandemia (2014-2020), considerando as diferentes fontes de ingreso. Os principais resultados poden sintetizarse en tres aspectos. Primeiro, a pandemia implica un incremento das desigualdades de renda en Galicia en 2020. Ademais, aumentaron as desigualdades segundo o sexo, a nacionalidade, a idade e o nivel de estudos dos compoñentes do fogar, así como as desigualdades territoriais. Finalmente, as prestacións sociais desempeñaron un papel relevante á hora de suavizar o efecto da pandemia nas desigualdades. Cómpre sinalar que este efecto é asimétrico, levando a que os fogares compostos por persoas máis novas se visen claramente menos protexidos que os de maior idade.

Galicia, al igual que buena parte del resto de comunidades autónomas, ha optado por la creación de mancomunidades como entidades supramunicipales para la prestación de ciertos servicios y para la dotación de infraestructuras. El incremento de su número y de los ayuntamientos participantes no siempre viene acompañado por un adecuado grado de cumplimiento de sus obligaciones en materia de información económica. Además, aquellas que sí presentan sus cuentas demuestran la existencia de una excesiva dependencia financiera de otras Administraciones públicas distintas de los ayuntamientos. En este trabajo se pretende, por una parte, analizar y evaluar estos asuntos desde una perspectiva económica y, por otra, plantear algunas reflexiones que puedan contribuir a mejorar el funcionamiento de las mancomunidades municipales en Galicia.
