“…Manufacturers produced products following sequential processes up until the 1990s, but digital transformation has enabled the industry to carry out a series of production activities from product production to marketing and sales at the same time. This has reduced costs and time, giving producers more room to lower product prices [1]. It also allowed businesses to expand their reach by entering new fields of business or converging with other areas.…”

“…This study is a follow-up to a previous one by Yoo and Yi (2021) [1], which defines the concept of economic innovation caused by digital transformation. Our previous study [1] offers a new definition of the concept of economic innovation capitalizing on changes in the technological environment. However, it does not include discussions on what drivers facilitate and affect innovation and how innovations in the technology, society, and economy sectors are interconnected and interact with one another.…”

The purpose of this study is to review studies on innovation and identify factors that affect the acceleration of digital economic innovation. This study also analyzes the impact of economic innovation on social systems. A systematic literature review method was used to analyze the findings of extant studies on digital transformation and economic growth. Results indicate that different drivers trigger economic innovation in different times. Our analyses reveal that digital economic innovation results in changes in the industrial structure and helps productivity improvement and cost reduction in the production sector. Results show that the impact of economic innovation on technology and society spheres interacts with economic innovation. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive framework of how economic innovation and social systems are connected and how technology, economy, society, and policy sectors coevolve within the enormous framework of social systems.

“…This is causing extensive upheaval in the fundamentals that support the social and economic environment such as production, consumption, distribution, etc., by reorganizing the production and distribution systems. According to Yoo and Yi (2021), the change in production, labour types, consumption structure, and income and distribution is the result of the digital economy [43][44][45][46].…”

“…One of the transformations in distribution structure due to the digital economy is the decline in household income, and this constrains the domestic demand, which is an obstacle in economic growth. In this case, one of the typical government measures is increasing public spending [43]. The rise in public spending impacts on increasing disposable household income, but it is not a sustainable solution [68].…”

The traditional concept of innovation focuses on significant changes in products and services. However, today’s innovation derived from the digital economy environment is transforming our way of life, values, and even social relations. The economic benefits of the digital economy and technology have a wide range of impacts derived from the rapid socio-economic transformation. The negative impact on jobs and incomes is a typical problem that threatens socioeconomic fundamentals. This phenomenon is the reason that we must have a new perspective about innovation that connects technology, economy, society and policy beyond the traditional perspective. Based on the new perspective, this study categorizes social innovations using an expanded concept. One of them is “adaptive social innovation”, and this study focuses on its key motive and impact. In this paper, a theoretical discussion is adopted from integrating discussions in macroeconomics, social psychology, political science, etc. The key motive can be found in transformation of production, consumption, and distribution due to the digital economy. Based on this, the detailed operation mechanism of adaptive social innovation that transforms public perceptions and systems are analysed. At the same time, the process in which formal institutions and the output of adaptive social innovation, affect society and policy was explored.

The Impact of Integration of Industry 4.0 and Internal Organizational Forces on Sustaining Competitive Advantages and Achieving Strategic Objectives

et al. 2022

Adopting and implementing the Industry 4.0 strategy to increase the overall performance of the organization became one of the main aims of organizations. However, ignoring the linkages between implementing strategic decisions and organizational internal factors/forces can endanger and shrink its performance, competitive advantages, and thus its strategic success. In this context, many companies failed to achieve the expected benefits of adopting the Industry 4.0 strategy. Therefore, the gained advantages of adopting the Industry 4.0 strategy should be sustained through perfect and comprehensive integration between Industry 4.0 concepts and the accompanying upgrades and changes in the organizational internal factors/forces. This will capitalize on organizations’ internal strengths and avoid weaknesses or turn them into strengths. In this paper, a conceptual model is proposed to investigate the relation between Industry 4.0 and internal organizational forces and examine their impacts on the sustainable competitive advantages of the organization. In the hypothesized model, three innovation capabilities (i.e., technological, economic, and commercial innovation) have been used to mediate the relation between the internal forces and the sustainable competitive advantages in parallel with Industry 4.0 adoption. The model and the proposed hypotheses have been simulated and tested using partial least squares structural equations modeling software called SmartPLS. The sample size used is 125 responses from different manufacturing fields. The results demonstrate the significant role that the internal organizational forces play in maintaining and sustaining the organization’s competitive advantages in combination with Industry 4.0.
