ABSTRACT Open search is crucial to business model design. In recent years, the digital revolution has significantly reshaped the open search environment and the business model landscape. The traditional ‘either/or’ paradigm that separately tests the effects of open search breadth and depth on business model design is no longer applicable. By introducing the ‘both/and’ paradigm, this study explores how open search breadth and depth, both jointly and in an orderly manner, impact hybrid business model design. Using a sample of digital startups during the opportunity window of China’s digital entrepreneurship, we find that open search breadth positively relates to the balance between technology- and consumer-oriented business models. Furthermore, under the premise of high breadth, open search depth shows a U-shaped relationship with this balance. This study not only enriches our knowledge of the antecedents of business model design but also provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of open search.

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is the new engine of future economic development. As a new force in the market economy, the issue of whether AI is related to the higher performance of new ventures in emerging economies still requires empirical evidence. Using content analysis and taking the 2010–2019 A-share listed new ventures as panel data, this paper tests the relationship and boundary conditions of AI orientation (AIO) on the performance of new ventures from the perspective of absorptive capacity. We find that AIO is positively related to new venture performance, where firm growth and the level of regional economic development have a significant positive moderating effect. This paper provides empirical evidence on the relationship between AIO and new venture performance.

ABSTRACT Following the outbreak of COVID-19, information and communication technology (ICT), as a part of digital technology, was of particular help to microenterprises in obtaining resources. Drawing upon Conservation of Resources Theory, we investigated the impact of ICT use on entrepreneurial performance. To examine our hypotheses, data were collected from 206 Chinese microenterprises. The results suggest that ICT use was positively related to entrepreneurial performance, that network capabilities mediated the relationship between ICT use and entrepreneurial performance and that perceived ICT usefulness moderated the relationship between ICT use and network capabilities. Finally, the implications, limitations and future research directions will be discussed.

ABSTRACT This study presents a theoretical model of interaction between individual and collective levels of entrepreneurial learning. We conducted a qualitative study on SoftBank Academia (SBA), an institute for human resource development to develop potential successors to Masayoshi Son, the founder of SoftBank Group in Japan. In SBA, there’s simultaneously a high level of competition and cooperation. Results suggest that the entrepreneurial learning process, which spans individual and collective levels, features elements of SoftBank Group’s business process such as ‘comradely association’ and ‘Cluster of No. 1 Strategy’.

ABSTRACT This study examined the effects of talent status (TS) on innovative work behaviour (IWB) and the moderating effects of leader-member relationship quality (LMX) on the relationship between TS and IWB among white-collar workers in Japanese firms. We analysed data from 876 participants. The results indicate that LMX positively affects IWB in the relationship between TS and IWB, and that it may be effective for organizations and innovation to recognize and identify the TS of workers to promote IWB. LMX quality is essential for promoting IWB.

ABSTRACT In September 2014, Alibaba went public in the United States through the largest IPO (initial public offering) in history, raising $21.8 billion and elevating the company’s value to $218.7 billion. The successful listing of Alibaba, the world’s largest online and mobile commerce enterprise, has attracted a lot of attention to investment strategy; in particular, the dual-class share structure of Internet enterprises designed to protect the control rights of company founders and the promotion of enterprise IPO have become a focus for international scholars. Based on the IPO case of Alibaba Group, this paper studies the dual share system of Alibaba with regards to three aspects: theoretical analysis, case analysis and financial index analysis. First, it introduces the literature relevant to the dual share system. It then takes Alibaba as a case study in order to analyse the reasons for the success of its IPO, and studies the impact of the dual share system on this IPO. Finally, it analyzes the effect and influence of the dual share system on IPO with regards to four dimensions of financial performance. Through the discussion in this paper, we hope to provide better ideas and suggestions for companies planning an external IPO.

ABSTRACT Alibaba and Coupang had enjoyed a period of success, starting with their IPOs. However, both companies have underperformed Amazon during the last 12 months. This special issue explores the underlying drivers for their tumultuous performance outcomes, including governance, political risks and internationalization strategies. This introduction paper sets the scene by studying the market perspective based on analyst reports, financial statements and stock market data. To understand growth expectations, we decompose current share prices into their present value, explained by current earnings and future value, driven by future growth and profitability. Exogenous factors such as the recent increase in interest rates, woes of governance problems associated with foreign corporations in South Korea and China’s anti-monopoly drive aimed at its tech giants have contributed to weaker performance. Our analysis of implied growth rates suggests that the market expects annual revenue growth above 11% for the foreseeable future. These expectations will be hard to meet, requiring a rethink of business models and processes.
