Digital & Industry 4.0
Digital Startup
Business Model Innovation in Digital Startups
Theoretical Significance
- Previous studies indicated BMI process and types of BMI in established firms, with BMI framework studies in digital startups and implementation of business models.
- Limited previous research of business model innovation conducted in digital startups.
Empirical Significance
- Indonesia is the 5th player of digital startups in the world and the important player in ASEAN digitalization.
- For the first two years of digital startups existence, the need of business model innovation is significant.
Digital Transformation
Digital Transformation: Business Implication & Organizational Challenge
Theoretical Significance
- Study different implications of Digital Transformation in terms of organizational and business aspect.
- Study the challenges faced by established firms when implementing Digital Transformation.
Empirical Significance
- Study what cause different implications of Digital Transformation in established firms (e.g. Blue Bird, Kompas, Matahari).
- Study how Digital Transformation affects organizational and business aspect of established firms.
Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 Implementation in Indonesia
Theoretical Significance
- Few studies address technological development relating to Industry 4.0; examples include technology transfer for 3D printing and maintenance systems.
- This research combines Industry 4.0 studies and adopts the concept via action research, extending academic literature and proposing a replicable methodology.
Empirical Significance
- Indonesia has its own "Making Indonesia 4.0" roadmap to improve prioritised industrial sectors and achieve Industry 4.0 capabilities.
- Action research will narrow the gap between theory and practice and tailor solutions based on the needs and conditions of selected industrial cases.
Electric Vehicle
Acceptance of Electric Vehicle in Indonesia: Case Study in Bandung
Theoretical Significance
- The study provides attributes of transportation modes taken into account by commuters.
- Gives insights on the effect of conditions of attribute combinations to transportation mode preferences.
Empirical Significance
- Gives insights on how public electric vehicle is preferred among other transportation modes in Indonesia community.
- Results could act as means of consideration for policy and formulation of electric vehicle in Indonesia.
Electric Vehicle
Green Radical Innovation Ecosystem in Developing Country: Case of Electric Vehicle Adoption in Indonesia
Theoretical Significance
- Most studies on green/sustainable radical innovation were previously conducted in developed countries, missing aspects of collectivism culture effect as an emerging characteristic of Indonesia.
- The additional characteristic may yield a novel theoretical framework of innovation ecosystem in the context of a developing country in Asia.
Empirical Significance
- Indonesia is currently facing the early adoption stage of Electric Vehicle (EV).
- Further investigation on the whole picture of actors and interaction within the ecosystem is required to prevent any "missing link" on implementation.
Knowledge Transfer
Effect of Knowledge Transfer in Technology Adoption on Innovation: The Case of E-Fishery
Theoretical Significance
- To provide insight in the way pre-adoption knowledge transfer contributes to innovation.
- To provide insight on how interaction with non-lead users affects innovation.
Empirical Significance
- To provide useful insight for business practitioners on the way to conduct knowledge transfer for technology-laden product adoption to non-lead users.
- To provide insight for practitioners on how to cultivate innovation capabilities.
Commercialization
Commercialization Models of University Research Products
Theoretical Significance
- Study on university technology commercialization exists but is still scarce.
- This study discovers the commercialization model of complex technological products resulted from university research.
Empirical Significance
- Many technological products resulted from university research are not successfully commercialized.
