Purpose

The main objective of this study is to identify the variables influencing consumers' perceptions of sustainable purchasing intentions and the effects such perceptions have on actual sustainable purchasing behavior. This paper aims to develop an understanding of the postmillennial generation's consumption of sustainable products.

Design/methodology/approach

A structured questionnaire was used to collect data for quantitative analysis. It involved sampling a total of 251 respondents, which were postmillennials belonging to the twin cities of Pakistan. A series of tests were applied through Smart PLS4 for all the variables, including descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling.

Findings

The results revealed that there is a significant relationship of social value and electronic word of mouth with digital media usage (DMU). Whereas, link of functional and emotional value with DMU was insignificant. The results also portrayed that there exists a positive link between DMU and sustainable consumption behavior (SCB). Moreover, green purchase intention moderated the relationship between DMU and SCB.

Originality/value

There exists a research gap on the role of postmillennial behavioral regulation and digital media use, as potential influences on their purchase behavior. Despite the fact that digital media has been shown to influence millennials' purchasing decisions in the past, there is still a reluctance among postmillennials to engage in environmentally friendly practices. Consequently, research is necessary to comprehend sustainable consumer behaviors; especially from an unaddressed Pakistani perspective.

目的 本研究的主要目的是确定影响消费者可持续购买意向认知的变量,以及这些认知对实际可持续购买行为的影响。本文旨在了解 "后千禧一代 "对可持续产品的消费情况。共抽样调查了 251 名受访者,他们都是巴基斯坦双子城的后千禧一代。研究结果表明,社会价值和电子口碑与数字媒体使用(DMU)存在显著关系。而功能价值和情感价值与 DMU 的关系不显著。结果还显示,DMU 与可持续消费行为(SCB)之间存在正向联系。此外,绿色购买意向调节了 DMU 与 SCB 之间的关系。原创性/价值关于千禧年后行为调节和数字媒体使用对其购买行为的潜在影响的研究存在空白。尽管数字媒体过去曾被证明会影响千禧一代的购买决策,但后千禧一代仍然不愿意参与环保实践。因此,有必要开展研究,以了解可持续消费行为;尤其是从尚未解决的巴基斯坦视角出发。

Purpose

Technological start-ups are significant contributor to the innovation and employment provider in an economy. Numerous technological start-ups are established every year; however, only a miniscule percentage of these technological start-ups sustain and scale up in the long run. The aim of this study is to investigate the factors that affect Indian technological start-ups’ competitiveness.

Design/methodology/approach

Case study analysis of two technological start-ups (namely, WayCool and Moglix) is undertaken to study the factors affecting the competitiveness of technological start-ups in India. Being a relatively underexplored theme of study in entrepreneurship and strategy, case analysis facilitates exploration and validation of factors influencing competitiveness. Information for case study analysis is drawn from secondary sources of information. The collected data undergoes deductive thematic analysis to systematically identify and examine recurring themes and patterns relevant to the competitiveness of Indian technological start-ups.

Findings

Case analysis reveals that innovation intensity, organisational agility and internationalisation influence competitiveness of technological start-ups. The importance of the role of each of these factors for entrepreneurial ventures has been highlighted in literature; however, their effect on competitiveness has not been examined in extant literature.

Research limitations/implications

Being among the few studies on the competitiveness of technological start-ups in specific and start-ups in general, this study highlights the gap in the literature and suggests the need for examining the competitiveness of technological start-ups.

Practical implications

For the practitioners, this study reinforces the need for entrepreneurs to emphasise fundamental factors that build competitiveness. Subsequently, the sources of competitiveness shall enable the start-up to gain a competitive advantage.

Originality/value

This is among the few studies to have explored the competitiveness of technological start-ups in the Indian context.

目的初创科技企业对一个经济体的创新和就业做出了重要贡献。每年都有无数的初创科技企业成立,但其中只有极少数能够长期维持并扩大规模。本研究旨在调查影响印度初创科技企业竞争力的因素。本研究对两家初创科技企业(即 WayCool 和 Moglix)进行了案例分析,以研究影响印度初创科技企业竞争力的因素。案例分析是创业和战略研究中一个相对缺乏探索的主题,有助于探索和验证影响竞争力的因素。案例研究分析的资料来自二手资料。通过对收集到的数据进行演绎式主题分析,系统地识别和研究与印度初创科技企业竞争力相关的重复出现的主题和模式。研究结果案例分析表明,创新强度、组织灵活性和国际化影响着初创科技企业的竞争力。研究局限/启示作为为数不多的关于初创科技企业竞争力的研究,本研究强调了文献中的空白,并提出了研究初创科技企业竞争力的必要性。对从业者而言,本研究加强了创业者重视构建竞争力的基本因素的必要性。随后,竞争力的来源将使初创企业获得竞争优势。原创性/价值这是少数几项探讨印度初创科技企业竞争力的研究之一。

Citizenship, language and digital rights: the question of language in the process of decolonising the internet and digital rights 公民身份、语言和数字权利:互联网和数字权利非殖民化进程中的语言问题
IF 2 Q3 REGIONAL & URBAN PLANNING Pub Date : 2024-07-19 DOI: 10.1108/fs-09-2022-0102

Purpose

Much of the vocabulary of digital rights have not been translated into Kiswahili. This means that technology experts and digital rights defenders often use English words when they are discussing technology. This contributes to the frailty of efforts to defend digital rights because those who attempt to explain the importance of these issues to the broader societies are forced to rely on English vocabulary that is not rooted in or connected to Kiswahili contexts. This paper aims to discuss the importance of inviting people to use African languages on the internet.

Design/methodology/approach

Kiswahili is the most widely spoken African language in the world. Nearly 140 million people in East Africa speak Kiswahili as a first or second language, including in Kenya and Tanzania where it is the national language. There is a long history of Kiswahili writing, publishing and cultural production in Kiswahili. Kiswahili is also the only African language that is an official language at the African Union. Even so, Kiswahili lags behind significantly in the development of a vocabulary and grammar of technology.

Findings

Beyond vocabulary, the use of African languages online is important to strengthening democracy on the internet because language is keenly connected to identity. Efforts to translate the vocabulary of technology into Kiswahili are aimed at encouraging societies in East Africa to build communities online that represent their interests keenly. This article therefore looks at the importance of language in building society and the efforts by residents of East Africa to decolonise the internet, so that they are able to exist in their fullness on the internet. The article further examines the semiotics of language in digital innovation, and the importance of representing Kiswahili language communities properly online in efforts to decolonise the internet. This paper does not presume that Kiswahili is the only African language that can decolonise the internet, because even Kiswahili has a history of domination over other language communities in the region. Rather, the article uses the example of Kiswahili to urge the use of indigenous languages to defend digital diversity.

Originality/value

The importance of this article is in demonstrating the importance of language in the movement to develop digital rights and especially to remove colonial approaches to technology, an issue that, to the best of the author’s knowledge, has never been discussed in relation to the Kiswahili language.

目的许多数字权利词汇尚未翻译成斯瓦希里语。这意味着技术专家和数字权利维护者在讨论技术问题时经常使用英语词汇。这加剧了捍卫数字权利工作的脆弱性,因为那些试图向更广泛的社会解释这些问题的重要性的人不得不依赖英语词汇,而这些词汇并不扎根于斯瓦希里语语境,也与斯瓦希里语语境无关。本文旨在讨论邀请人们在互联网上使用非洲语言的重要性。设计/方法/途径斯瓦希里语是世界上使用最广泛的非洲语言。东非有近 1.4 亿人将斯瓦希里语作为第一或第二语言,其中肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚将其作为国语。斯瓦希里语的写作、出版和文化生产历史悠久。斯瓦希里语也是唯一成为非洲联盟官方语言的非洲语言。研究结果除词汇外,非洲语言在网络上的使用对于加强网络民主也很重要,因为语言与身份认同密切相关。将技术词汇翻译成斯瓦希里语的努力旨在鼓励东非各国社会在网上建立能强烈代表其利益的社区。因此,本文探讨了语言在建设社会中的重要性,以及东非居民为实现互联网非殖民化所做的努力,从而使他们能够在互联网上充分存在。文章进一步探讨了数字创新中的语言符号学,以及在努力实现互联网非殖民化的过程中,在网络上适当表现斯瓦希里语社区的重要性。本文并不假定斯瓦希里语是唯一能使互联网非殖民化的非洲语言,因为即使是斯瓦希里语也有统治该地区其他语言社区的历史。原创性/价值本文的重要性在于展示了语言在发展数字权利运动中的重要性,特别是在消除对技术的殖民主义做法方面的重要性,据作者所知,这个问题从未与斯瓦希里语联系起来讨论过。

Purpose

The aim of this research paper is to present a new model of innovation management under the approach of anticipatory collective intelligence strategies to improve the innovation capacity of products and business processes. The paper presents a case study of Café Galavis, one of the oldest family-owned companies in the Colombian coffee sector.

Design/methodology/approach

A descriptive mixed-methods research design was used. Ten experts and the general manager of the organization were interviewed using a semi-structured format. Additionally, a creativity and innovation workshop were conducted with the participation of 140 young people between the ages of 21 and 28. The traditional product of the company was evaluated using the SCAMPER technique. On the other hand, a strategic approach was taken to address the complex problem. This involved conducting a bibliometric analysis using Vosviewer software, prioritizing key variables and actors’ game through MICMAC and MACTOR software, seeking expert judgment, conducting morphological analysis, generating scenarios under the Peter Schwartz axes and designing a strategic plan.

Findings

The paper presents a new approach to developing innovation processes by connecting foresight and the SCAMPER technique as a strategy for anticipatory collective intelligence. Furthermore, it was found that the use of these methods enhances the innovation capacity of both products and business processes. Organizations can implement this model to create plans with disruptive and sustainable horizons.

Practical implications

The paper presents methods to enhance the adoption and performance of innovation in companies through collective anticipatory intelligence and the use of digital tools.

Originality/value

This paper proposes a novel approach to combining two future methods to promote innovation. This study makes a theoretical and practical contribution to the field of foresight.
