The effect of IT security issues on the implementation of industry 4.0 in SMEs
Our paper explores how IT security issues affect the implementation of Industry 4.0 in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector. To develop this research question, we carry out an empirical study, with a survey of 3184 manufacturing SMEs, using the “Flash Eurobarometer No. 486” database from Eurostat (European Union). Using machine-learning methodology (ML), our contribution extends previous literature on the barriers…
Exploring the economic role of cybersecurity in SMEs
This study explores the economic role of cybersecurity in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), situating cybersecurity within the framework of merit-goods within the economic theory of market failures and public goods. By examining 240 SMEs across the UK, the empirical findings of this investigation underscore its classification as a merit-good due to its extensive social benefits and the critical gap in its optimal provision. The results confirm…
Analyzing AI adoption in European SMEs
This study investigates the effects of digital capabilities, innovation capabilities, and business environmental support on the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Utilizing dynamic capabilities and resource dependency theories, we provide a comprehensive and integral analysis of the drivers that facilitate AI adoption in SMEs. We conducted an empirical study encompassing 12,108 SMEs, based on su…
Digitalisation dynamics in SMEs
This paper addresses the study of digitalisation dynamics in SMEs. Improving on existing research and its methodological limitations, we provide an understanding of the digital transformation in SMEs by approaching the research from a non-linear and complex perspective. We empirically test our hypotheses using the Eurostat Flash Eurobarometer No. 486 data set, with a final sample of 16,365 SMEs. Our first contribution shows that an adequate under…
The effect of consumption and production policies on circular economy business models
The circular economy (CE) is attracting increasing interest, as it can bring environmental, social, and economic benefits. However, policymakers and scholars appear to concentrate more on the production side of CE, while consumption, and particularly policies that affect consumption have received less attention and their effect is ambiguous. This paper investigates the effect of CE consumption policies on circular economy business models (CEBMs) …
The formation of self-management teams in higher education institutions. Satisfaction and effectiveness
This paper explores how self-management work groups are formed in higher education institutions and how this affects the effectiveness of the teams. For this, we investigated the experiences of 560 students who were members of self-management learning teams, using factorial analysis, cluster analysis and ordinal logit regression. We focus on self-management teams, where students form work groups autonomously, and making decisions with whom to col…
Mapping the entrepreneurial university literature
Since the introduction of the concept of entrepreneurial university in 1980s, the number of studies has dramatically increased, in particular since 2015. This had made the literature on the entrepreneurial university complex, fragmented and difficult to navigate. This paper provides a comprehensive review of all topics covered in the body of literature on the entrepreneurial university and identifies the most salient topics and papers within this…
University-enterprise cooperation for the employability of higher education graduates
Our paper addresses the analysis of how the collaboration between HEIs and companies affects the employability of HEIs students. We approach the paper from a social capital theoretical framework, and the perspective of companies, investigating how the intensity of collaboration between HEIs and companies, as well as the diversity of mechanisms used, affects the satisfaction of employers in HEIs graduates in companies. We use the database on ‘Empl…
