“…Moreover, the different conclusion from previous studies that this study draws [34][35][36][37]74,75] was that technological development and competitors have no significant influence on the business model innovation of SMTAs in the Internet+ era. That reflects the different operational characteristic of travel agencies especially the small and micro ones which have been discussed above-that is, they are family run and small, have low professional standards, only package other products to make sales, and offer the most basic service.…”

“…Organizational learning refers to the process in which an organization continues to update and produce based on environmental changes, acquiring new knowledge that can help the organization adjust to reality and achieve enterprise development goals [19,35]. Researchers have stressed the need for organizations to adopt a stronger open systems perspective (influence of the environment, dynamic environment, need for survival) to ensure sustainability [36,37].…”

This study mainly investigated the factors affecting the business model innovation of small and micro travel agencies (SMTAs) in the Internet+ era. Based on a literature review, six hypotheses were proposed. To identify the influencing factors, the questionnaire, which was developed from previous studies, was distributed and 130 valid questionnaires were identified. Linear regression was used to test the hypotheses and further verify the relationship between each factor and the four dimensions of business model innovation. The results revealed that: 1. Organizational learning ability, consumer demand, entrepreneurial spirit, and website performance have significant effects on the business model innovation of SMTAs in the Internet+ era; 2. Organizational learning ability; consumer demand, and technological development were discovered to have positive effects on the value proposition innovation of SMTAs; 3. Consumer demand, entrepreneurial spirit, and organizational learning ability have positive effects on the value maintenance innovation of SMTAs; 4. Organizational learning ability and consumer demand have positive effects on the value network innovation of SMTAs; 5. Finally, organizational learning ability, website performance, and consumer demand have positive effects on the value realization innovation of SMTAs. These results can serve as the foundation for future relevant research and as a reference for SMTAs and related industry practitioners in their future management.

“…Yet, relatively few studies have examined RI in the context of low-technology alternatives to addressing global challenges outside Europe and North America. For those seeking to apply RI in these contexts, there is little guidance on the practical aspects of doing so (de Campos et al 2017;Chaturvedi et al 2016;Voeten et al 2014).…”

The role of low-technology innovation in addressing global challenges is undervalued. Responsible innovation (RI) has the potential to direct lowtechnology innovation toward global challenges in the Global South, yet this possibility remains largely unexplored. Through a retrospective analysis, this article explores how researchers grapple with dimensions of an RI framework in a research project and highlights key areas for researchers to consider when involved with lowtechnology innovation in a development context. The analysis demonstrates that RI can structure discussion and create space for anticipation, reflection and engagement with stakeholders. However, even when researchers are committed to the idea of RI, it is difficult to enact in practice. Although RI places significant emphasis on inclusive and meaningful engagement as imagined by codevelopment and inclusive models of innovation, the deficit model of public engagement presents a formidable barrier. Surprisingly, low-technology innovators are likely to face the same struggles as high technology innovators with regards to engagement that allows end-users to shape the technology which may ultimately benefit them.

“…This situation can be characterised as a 'many hands problem' (Van de Poel et al 2012), where many parties are involved in a decision yet none of them can reasonably be held individually responsible for its consequences. Without a clear demarcation of responsibilities, one may also encounter accountability problems as it is not always clear who, if anyone, should be held accountable for particular problems (Balkema and Pols 2015;Setiawan and Singh 2015;Voeten et al 2014). This is likely to get worse if innovations have a large or global scope, meaning that there are many different stakeholders and anticipation and reflectivity are difficult; if the stakeholders are spread out or disorganised and thus may have difficulties participating or mobilising for an accountability procedure; and if the innovation is radically new, making it difficult to reasonably foresee its consequences ahead of time (Blok and Lemmens 2015;Macnaghten et al 2014).…”

Responsible Innovation (RI) is a young field of research that has nevertheless had remarkable successes in dissemination within academic and political circles. However, there is relatively little awareness of its limits, blind spots and situations in which it cannot be used for actual innovation trajectories. Without such awareness, there is a risk that RI may get hollowed out and turned into a tool for 'greenwashing'. To examine RI's limits, we present a case study on biofuel innovation in Hassan, South India. This case study demonstrates that there are important barriers that may make it difficult to conduct innovation according to RI values. In particular, we highlight the following factors that emerge from our case study and need more attention in order to be included and adequately theorised in the RI literature: material barriers to innovation, engagement with abandoning or reducing existing practices as a consequence of innovation, power differences and dependencies, (un)clear demarcation of responsibilities, strategic behaviour and, lastly, different, diverging and even contradictory interests. We demonstrate that such factors may obstruct the possibility to innovate in a responsible way, leading us to our core observation that RI should be about innovating responsibly -or not innovating at all.
