PurposeThis paper aims to explore the financing mechanisms towards Mars commercialisation and SpaceX’s Mars mission programme to achieve the interplanetary settlement. This study also suggests the path to avoid the failure of space commercialisation.Design/methodology/approachThis research uses a case study methodology (Eisenhardt, 1989; Yin, 2013). The analysis is based on the construct of technology S-curves and attempts to answer the research question: What are the financing mechanisms to achieve successful aerospace financing for Mars mission? This research used semi-structured questionnaire and conducted 51 in-depth interviews. The interview data were supported by an examination of secondary data to provide a cross check on the validity of research (Yin, 2013). The research findings provide lessons and insights into the challenges of aerospace financing to Mars.FindingsThis study has shown that financing via cryptocurrency and initial coin offering as well as crowdfunding (particularly donation- and equity-based crowdfunding) provide promising financial solutions to achieve Mars commercialisation. The implementation of Mars programme demonstrates the fifth generation of innovation development model – systems integration and extensive networking model.Originality/valueGiven a dearth of study focusing on the links between S-curves and technology financing of aerospace commercialisation, this research study attempts to fill a gap in this neglected area with a focus on exploring the financing mechanisms towards Mars commercialisation.
目的本文旨在探讨火星商业化的融资机制和SpaceX实现行星际和解的火星任务计划。这项研究还提出了避免太空商业化失败的途径。设计/方法论/方法本研究采用案例研究方法(Eisenhardt,1989;尹,2013)。该分析基于技术S曲线的构建,试图回答以下研究问题:火星任务成功获得航空航天融资的融资机制是什么?本研究采用半结构化问卷,进行了51次深度访谈。访谈数据得到了二次数据检查的支持,以对研究的有效性进行交叉检查(Yin,2013)。研究结果为火星航空融资的挑战提供了经验教训和见解。这项研究表明,通过加密货币和首次代币发行以及众筹(特别是基于捐赠和股权的众筹)进行融资,为实现火星商业化提供了有前景的金融解决方案。火星计划的实施展示了第五代创新发展模式——系统集成和广泛联网模式。原创性/价值鉴于缺乏关注S曲线与航空航天商业化技术融资之间联系的研究,本研究试图填补这一被忽视领域的空白,重点探索火星商业化的融资机制。

PurposeThe COVID-19 pandemic has created a new normal for international business (IB) activities, leaving them pondering their next steps. The decreasing effectiveness of current vaccines to protect individuals against new variants have created uncertainty on how to respond to the new waves of the COVID-19 infection. This study aims to empirically assesses how IBs perceive the unfolding challenges in the supply chain due to the pandemic and the solutions.Design/methodology/approachThe survey data is obtained from 166 logistics professionals in Hong Kong and India.FindingsThe results reveal that returns on investment, logistics, delays and imports are the most affected areas. The most often recommended solutions for supply chain management (SCM) include using local manufacturing capabilities, analytics and automation, offering better customer service, providing more effective transportation means, ensuring diligence around optimization and focusing on sustainability.Originality/valueThe findings of this study help to improve supply chain operations. This study also provides recommendations for changes to SCM in response to the new normal.

ObjectifL'objectif visé est de nourrir les réflexions sur la colonisation du futur dans le présent en mettant particulièrement l’accent sur le continent africain. Nous visons à explorer comment la recherche participative, et plus particulièrement la recherche-action anticipatoire, peut contribuer au processus de décolonisation effective.Conception/méthodologie/approcheConsidérant le futur comme un bien public, nous mobilisons une réflexion sur les processus coloniaux qui l’ont transformé, à bien des égards, en bien de club ou en bien privé. Nous faisons ensuite appel aux notions de production participative de connaissances et de recherche-action locale comme moyens de décoloniser le futur et de libérer l'imagination. Nous revisitons ensuite les principes de la recherche-action participative pour atteindre cet objectif et nous examinons les principales caractéristiques d'une recherche-action anticipatoire non coloniale dans le contexte des futurs de l'Afrique.RésultatsNous mettons en évidence les défis issus de la relation entre les efforts d'anticipation axés sur la recherche-action, la création d'une intelligence collective et la co-conception (codesign), dans le but d'encourager le processus de décolonisation. Cette démarche inclut des principes de conception, établit les bases pour un processus anticipatoire, potentiellement décolonial et envisage une possible réaction du système dominant à l’encontre de ce processus de décolonisation.Implications/limitationsIl s’agit d’un travail conceptuel, qui ne fournit pas d’éléments testés sur le terrain. Toutefois, nous espérons que cela constituera un apport permettant de concevoir des méthodologies qui préviendront la colonisation du futur lors de la participation à des activités de recherche tournées vers les futurs en Afrique et ailleurs.Originalité/valeurNous proposons une approche intégrale de la colonisation du futur, comme renouvellement d’une question ancienne. Nous articulons également cette démarche autour d’une réflexion sur la nature de ce que pourrait être une recherche-action anticipatoire décoloniale.
目标目标是促进对当前未来殖民的思考,特别强调非洲大陆。我们旨在探讨参与性研究,特别是前瞻性行动研究如何有助于有效的非殖民化进程。设计/方法/方法将未来视为一种公共产品,我们动员对殖民进程的反思,这些进程在许多方面将其转变为俱乐部产品或私人产品。然后,我们呼吁参与性知识生产和地方行动研究的概念,作为实现未来非殖民化和释放想象力的手段。然后,我们重新审视参与性行动研究的原则,以实现这一目标,并在非洲未来的背景下审查非殖民地前瞻性行动研究的主要特点。结果我们强调了行动研究、集体智慧创造和共同设计(共同设计)之间的预期努力关系所产生的挑战,以鼓励非殖民化进程。这一方法包括设计原则,为预期的、潜在的非殖民化进程奠定基础,并设想主导系统可能对非殖民化进程作出反应。含义/限制这是一项概念性工作,不提供现场测试的要素。然而,我们希望,这将有助于制定方法,通过参与非洲和其他地方面向未来的研究活动,防止未来的殖民。独创性/价值我们提出了一种对未来殖民的整体方法,作为一个古老问题的更新。我们还围绕着对非殖民化预期行动研究性质的反思来阐述这一方法。

PurposeManeno mengi yanayohusu haki za binadamu na haki za kiteknolojia hayajatafsiriwa katika lugha ya Kiswahili. Kwa hivyo, wataalamu wa teknolojia na watetezi wa haki za kidijitali hutumia maneno ya Kiingereza – hata bila utohozi – wanapozungumzia haki za kiteknolojia. Hali hii ya mambo inachangia udhoofu fulani katika utetezi wa haki za kidijitali kwani wanaojaribu kueleza jamii umuhimu wa haki hizi hulazimishwa kutegemea msamiati wa Kiingereza usiyo na msingi au viungo na lugha ya Kiswahili Katika makala hii, tutazungumzia umuhimu wa kukaribisha watu kutumia lugha za Kiafrika kwenye mtandao.Design/methodology/approachKiswahili ni lugha ya Kiafrika inayozungumzwa katika eneo zaidi sana duniani. Karibu watu milioni mia moja na arobaini Afrika mashariki wanazungumza Kiswahili kama lugha yao ya kwanza au ya pili, miongoni mwao Wakenya na Watanzania, wenyeji wa nchi ambamo Kiswahili ni lugha ya kitaifa. Tena kuna historia ndefu ya kutumiwa kwa lugha ya Kiswahili katika uandishi, uchapishaji na ubunifu wa utamaduni wa kisasa. Kiswahili pekee yake ndiyo lugha ya asili ya Kiafrika inayotumika kama lugha ya maalum ya Umoja wa Mataifa za Kiafrika. Hata hivyo, kwa upande wa matumizi ya Kiswahili, hasa kwenye mada ya teknolojia, Kiswahili imewachwa nyuma.FindingsZaidi ya maneno rasmi, uwepo wa lugha za Kiafrika ni muhimu kuimarisha jumuiya za Kiafrika mtandaoni kwani lugha inalenga sana haki na utambulisho wa watu. Miradi za kutafsiri maneno za kiteknolojia katika lugha ya Kiswahili inahimiza jumuiya za Afrika Mashariki kuunda jamii inayosimamia matakwa yao vyema. Makala hii basi inazingatia umuhimu wa lugha kwenye kuunda jamii na katika hatua za kuondoa mbinu za kikoloni mtandaoni ili wenyeji wa Afrika Mashariki wajione mtandaoni kwa ujumla wao wote. Makala pia itazingatia semiotiki ya lugha katika ubunifu wa teknolojia, na umuhimu wa kutafsiri jamii ya lugha ya Kiswahili katika harakati za kuondoa ukoloni katika ubunifu huu. Lakini sio tu kwamba lugha ya Kiswahili ndio pekee inayoweza kuondoa mbinu za kikoloni mtandaoni, kwani pia lugha hiyo ina ishara za kutawalwa kwa jamii fulani. Bali makala hii inatumia mfano wa Kiswahili kuhimiza utumiaji wa lugha za kiasili au za kimama mtandaoni ili kulinda mustakabali wa kidijitali wa umma.Originality/valueUmuhimu wa makala hii ni kuashiria jipya umuhimu wa lugha katika harakati za kuendeleza haki za kidijitali na hasa kuondoa mbinu za kikoloni kwenye teknolojia, swala lisilowahijadiliwa katika lugha ya Kiswahili.
当许多关于人权和技术权利的词语没有用斯瓦希里语翻译时。因此,技术专家和数字权利倡导者在谈论技术权利时使用英语单词,即使没有任何借口。这种情况导致了捍卫数字权利的一些弱点,因为那些试图描述这些权利的重要性的人被迫依赖非必要的英语或语言英语操作。在这篇文章中,我们谈到了邀请人们在线使用非洲语言的重要性。设计/方法论/方法斯瓦希里语是世界上最大地区使用的一种非洲语言。近1亿东非人将斯瓦希里语作为第一或第二语言,其中包括肯尼亚人和坦桑尼亚人,他们是国家语言斯瓦希里的国民。在新闻、出版和现代文化创新中使用斯瓦希里语也有着悠久的历史。唯一的斯瓦希里语是一种非洲语言,被用作联合国的一种特殊语言。然而,对于斯瓦希里语的使用,特别是在技术主题中,斯瓦希里已经被抛在了后面。除了官方语言之外,非洲语言的存在对于改善在线社区也很重要,因为语言旨在人权和身份认同。斯瓦希里语的技术翻译项目敦促东非社区创建一个能够很好地管理他们需求的社会。然后,这篇帖子考虑到了社会语言创造的重要性,并采取措施消除网上殖民策略,以便东非公民能够普遍上网。该职位还将考虑到创意技术方面的语言研讨会,以及翻译瑞典语社会对消除这种创意中的殖民主义的重要性。但不仅斯瓦希里语可以在网上删除殖民技术,因为这种语言也有审查的迹象。相反,这篇帖子在斯瓦希里语中被用作一个例子,以促进少数民族或安静语言的使用,从而保护公众的未来。这篇帖子的独创性/价值在于表明一种新语言在数字权利活动发展中的重要性,特别是消除了技术中的殖民技术,即斯瓦希里语中的问题。

PurposeThis study aims to identify and prioritize preferable 2050 future images and the policy agendas of the Republic of Korea using a bottom-up approach, involving legislative staff of the National Assembly as well as experts from various fields.Design/methodology/approachThe authors derived three future images from the future policy agendas selected by experts: society for growth of smart generations (GS), society for sustainability and safety (SS) and society for coexistence and diversity (CD). The survey conducted among legislative staff (n = 189) shows that the most preferred future image was SS. Then, the authors prioritized the policy agendas that aligned with future images using priority calculating methods.FindingsThe most prioritized policy agenda was “Social system for coexistence to resolve social conflict,” followed by “Social sustainability through tackling low birth rate.” The next was “Social integration policies to embrace diverse family composition” and “Responding to social change and knowledge transformation caused by artificial intelligence.” Among the top five rankings, two agendas from each SS and CD were selected.Practical implicationsTo achieve the preferred future images, implementing policies related to sustainability, human rights and coexistence are necessary for continuous collaboration among stakeholders, especially those from the legislature.Originality/valueThis study presents a method of involving the National Assembly, which is a representative institution of the people and composed of various political parties, to set the national’s future vision and agenda from a long-term perspective.
本研究旨在采用自下而上的方法,涉及国民议会立法人员以及各个领域的专家,确定并优先考虑大韩民国2050年的未来形象和政策议程。△设计/方法/方法:作者从专家们选定的未来政策议程中,得出了“智能世代成长的社会”(GS)、“可持续性和安全的社会”(SS)、“共存和多样性的社会”(CD)等3个未来形象。对立法人员(n = 189)进行的调查显示,最受欢迎的未来形象是SS。然后,作者使用优先级计算方法对与未来形象一致的政策议程进行优先级排序。调查结果显示,最优先的政策议程是“解决社会矛盾的共存社会制度”,其次是“解决低出生率的社会可持续性”。其次是“包容多样化家庭构成的社会融合政策”、“应对人工智能引发的社会变化和知识转型”。在前5名中,党卫军和民主党各选出了2个议程。为了实现理想的未来形象,实施与可持续性、人权和共存相关的政策是利益相关者,特别是立法机构之间持续合作的必要条件。原创性/价值本研究提出了一种方法,让国会这个由各政党组成的人民代表机构参与进来,从长远的角度制定国家的未来愿景和议程。

PropósitoIdentificar los aspectos que los Actores Sociales consideran en la construcción de futuros compartidos en las comunidades. En su aplicación en los países emergentes, especialmente en el Sur Global, a menudo se pasan por alto las particularidades socioculturales de las comunidades y los actores, generando fricciones o conflictos sociales. Este artículo presenta dos elementos críticos que contribuyen al debate: a) la importancia de entender a los Actores Sociales dentro de un modelo de generación de futuros comunitarios en los países emergentes; b) los factores relevantes que influyen en los actores en un ejercicio de construcción de futuros en las comunidades.Diseño/metodología/enfoqueA partir de la investigación cualitativa, se utilizó un estudio de caso de prospectiva comunitaria del futuro: El futuro de Puerto Gaitán 2037 (Meta, Colombia).

F. Tam, J. Lung
PurposeThe main purpose of this paper is to explore innovative ideas for a sustainable fashion supply chain in the future by focusing on investigating the impacts of COVID-19 on the fashion supply chain and review sustainable supply chain.Design/methodology/approachA systematic literature review (SLR) and a case study have been undertaken to explore the innovative ideas for a sustainable fashion supply chain developed after the COVID-19 outbreak. Having conducted a comprehensive literature search in electronic databases Google Scholar, Emerald Insight, ScienceDirect and ProQuest, 69 articles were selected and reviewed. A case of the Kering Group was used to explain the results.FindingsThis paper highlighted the basic concepts of a sustainable supply chain, reviewed the 10 principles of the United Nation Global Compact and their connections to promoting supply chain sustainability, as well as the three components of a sustainable supply chain: green supply chain, transparent supply chain and circular supply chain. Based on the results of a SLR and a real case of Kering Group, the paper identified 12 innovative ideas for a sustainable fashion supply chain: (1) biodegradable and natural materials, (2) textile recycling, (3) nearshoring, (4) artificial intelligence (AI), (5) robot, (6) 3D printing, (7) Internet of Things, (8) blockchain, (9) reverse resources; (10) bio-packaging, (11) augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) and (12) digital runway.Research limitations/implicationsThe epidemiological situations of the COVID-19 pandemic and the corresponding innovative ideas for a sustainable supply chain may change over time. While this paper provides a comprehensive literature review and case study, further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of current efforts in the development of a sustainable fashion supply chain through collecting both quantitative and qualitative data.Practical implicationsEmbracing the issues from the COVID-19 pandemic, the results of this study are further explained by the case of Kering Group in the fashion industry. The managerial implications of the results and discussion are the need to adopt innovative ideas for a more sustainable fashion supply chain in the future. The success of sustainable supply chains work by leveraging the best available technologies such as robot, 3D printing, AR and VR, setting consistent standards for sustainability such as Environmental Profit and Loss and Kering & Textile Exchange and communicating with all parties throughout the supply chain, such as blockchain and AI. Investment in developing technology and innovative ideas will be the key of future to supply chain sustainability. Nonetheless, the specific approach used by each organization must be tailored to its characteristics, goals and circumstances.Social implicationsBringing upon unprecedented challenges, the pandemic has shown both companies and consumers just how fragile our planet is. Thus
目的通过研究新冠肺炎对时尚供应链的影响,回顾可持续供应链,探索未来可持续时尚供应链创新思路。设计/方法/方法进行了系统的文献综述(SLR)和案例研究,以探索新冠肺炎爆发后开发的可持续时尚供应链的创新理念。在电子数据库Google Scholar、Emerald Insight、ScienceDirect和ProQuest中进行了全面的文献检索,选出并评论了69篇文章。使用开云集团的一个案例来解释结果。发现本文强调了可持续供应链的基本概念,回顾了《联合国全球契约》的10项原则及其与促进供应链可持续性的联系,以及可持续供应链中的三个组成部分:绿色供应链、透明供应链和循环供应链。基于SLR的结果和开云集团的真实案例,本文确定了可持续时尚供应链的12个创新理念:(1)可生物降解和天然材料,(2)纺织品回收,(3)近岸,(4)人工智能,(5)机器人,(6)3D打印,(7)物联网,(8)区块链,(9)逆向资源;(10) (11)增强现实(AR)和虚拟现实(VR)以及(12)数字跑道。研究局限性/影响新冠肺炎大流行的流行病学状况以及可持续供应链的相应创新理念可能会随着时间的推移而变化。虽然本文提供了全面的文献综述和案例研究,但还需要进一步的研究,通过收集定量和定性数据来评估当前在发展可持续时尚供应链方面的努力的有效性。实际含义考虑到新冠肺炎大流行的问题,本研究的结果通过开云集团在时尚行业的案例得到了进一步解释。结果和讨论的管理含义是,需要采用创新理念,在未来建立一个更可持续的时尚供应链。可持续供应链的成功是通过利用机器人、3D打印、AR和VR等最佳可用技术,为可持续性制定一致的标准,如环境损益和开云纺织交易所,并与整个供应链的各方沟通,如区块链和人工智能。对开发技术和创新理念的投资将是未来供应链可持续性的关键。尽管如此,每个组织使用的具体方法都必须适应其特点、目标和情况。社会影响疫情带来了前所未有的挑战,向公司和消费者展示了我们的星球是多么脆弱。因此,从长远来看,为了保护我们的星球,我们不仅需要让企业更可持续,还需要过上更环保的生活方式。原创性/价值据作者所知,这是第一部对针对可持续(时尚)供应链管理受众的相关学术期刊文章进行系统审查的作品。此外,本文还通过探索未来可持续时尚供应链的创新理念,并用一个案例说明如何将这些理念放在现实生活中,为这一差距增加了一些考虑。本文讨论了新冠肺炎对供应链不同阶段的影响,并提出了可用于应对疫情流行病形势变化的创新想法。

PurposeDespite the proliferation of service chatbots in the tourism industry, the question on its continuance intentions among customers has largely remain unanswered. Building on an integrated framework using the task–technology fit theory (TTF) and the expectation–confirmation model (ECM), the present study aims to settle this debate by investigating the factors triggering customers to continue to use chatbots in a travel planning context.Design/methodology/approachThe research followed a quantitative approach in which a survey of 322 chatbot users was undertaken. The model was empirically validated using the structural equation modelling approach using AMOS.FindingsThe results reveal that users’ expectations are confirmed when they believe that the technological characteristics of chatbots satisfy their task-related characteristics. Simply, the results reveal a significant and direct effect of TTF on customers’ confirmation and perceived usefulness towards chatbots. Moreover, perceived usefulness and confirmation were found to positively impact customers’ satisfaction towards chatbots, in which the former exerts a relatively stronger impact. Not surprisingly, customers’ satisfaction with the artificial intelligence(AI)-based chatbots emerged as a predominant predictor of their continuance use.Practical implicationsThe findings have various practical ramifications for developers who must train chatbot algorithms on massive data to increase their accuracy and to answer more exhaustive inquiries, thereby generating a task–technology fit. It is recommended that service providers give consumers hassle-free service and precise answers to their inquiries to guarantee their satisfaction.Originality/valueThe present work attempted to empirically construct and evaluate the combination of the TTF model and the ECM, which is unique in the AI-based chatbots available in a tourism context. This research presents an alternate method for understanding the continuance intentions concerning AI-based service chatbots.
目的:尽管服务聊天机器人在旅游业中越来越多,但客户对其继续使用意愿的问题在很大程度上仍未得到解答。基于任务-技术契合理论(TTF)和期望-确认模型(ECM)的集成框架,本研究旨在通过调查促使客户在旅行规划环境中继续使用聊天机器人的因素来解决这一争论。设计/方法/方法本研究采用定量方法,对322名聊天机器人用户进行了调查。利用AMOS结构方程建模方法对模型进行了实证验证。研究结果表明,当用户认为聊天机器人的技术特征满足了他们的任务相关特征时,他们的期望就得到了证实。简单地说,结果揭示了TTF对客户对聊天机器人的确认和感知有用性的显著和直接影响。感知有用性和确认性正向影响客户对聊天机器人的满意度,其中感知有用性的影响相对更强。毫不奇怪,客户对基于人工智能(AI)的聊天机器人的满意度成为了预测它们是否会继续使用的主要指标。这些发现对开发人员有各种各样的实际影响,他们必须在海量数据上训练聊天机器人算法,以提高其准确性,并回答更详尽的查询,从而生成适合任务技术的算法。建议服务提供商为消费者提供无忧的服务和准确的解答,以保证消费者的满意度。原创性/价值本研究试图从经验上构建和评估TTF模型和ECM的组合,这在旅游业中基于人工智能的聊天机器人中是独一无二的。本研究提出了一种理解基于人工智能的服务聊天机器人的持续意图的替代方法。
