“…Thus, the present study considers the use of e-commerce as a strategic decision to improve Pakistani SMEs' overall performance. Further, the direct effect of e-commerce is also significant and consistent with past research [120,121]. The top management has the authority to allocate the financial and other resources needed to use e-commerce.…”

The study investigates the mediating role of e-commerce through organizational and environmental factors with small and medium enterprises (SMEs) performance. The study follows a cross-sectional survey method approach. The study’s theoretical foundation is based on the resource-based view (RBV) and diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory. The current research identifies four manufacturing SMEs’ strata based on participation in the country’s exports using a stratified proportional random sampling technique. The research questionnaires were distributed among 700 top and middle-level managers of manufacturing SMEs. The data were analyzed by applying partial least square structural equational modeling (PLS-SEM) to examine the relationship between the exogenous, mediator, and endogenous variables. The finding reveals that top management support and competitive pressure have a significant positive impact on the use of e-commerce direct and mediation. At the same time, the adoption cost and government support have an insignificant impact on e-commerce usage. This study results can be used to enhance the use of e-commerce in Pakistan’s manufacturing SMEs to improve the country’s overall exports.

“…In India, the adoption rate of e-commerce platforms is still at a slower pace, especially among SMEs segments, the counted reasons, including lack of expertise, lack of knowledgeable staff, and limited funds, can be some potent reasons behind the non-adoption of e-commerce which require further improvement. E-commerce adoption has always been a challenging area for studies in many countries as the potential of the platform is identified, and critical parameters need to be discussed with diverse visualization of the issues faced by the enterprises (Ajao et al, 2019;Chau et al, 2020;Govinnage & Sachitra, 2019;Katumba & Rukundo, 2020). Moreover, Table 1 provides detailed insight regarding the barrier selection from the extensive literature review.…”

The main purpose of this study is to examine barriers towards e-commerce platforms in developing countries using specific analytic techniques. The present empirical analysis has its main objectives of detailed study of barriers that keep deferring them to adopt an e-commerce platform. To achieve this, the barriers were selected from an extensive literature review and expert advice from this field. Then the responses were studied using a fuzzy DEMATEL approach. The causal relationship graphs provide detailed structural interdependencies of the barriers. In this exploratory study benchmarking has come out to be the most influential barrier that needs to be practiced while adopting an e-commerce platform. Furthermore, a lack of top management commitment has also been a significant barrier in the organization while initiating an online real-time business. The result also showed that higher turnover and poor planning are the most influenced barrier among the other parameter, the sensitivity analysis of the method is conducted to validate the robustness of the results.

Entrepreneurship is one of the activities produced from higher education as an alternative solution because it contains competence, education, and training elements. Entrepreneurship has values needed during a digital society to survive and be creative in seeing problems into opportunities. Vocational engineering graduate dominates the high level of unemployment in Indonesia. It proves that there is still a lack of student interest in entrepreneurship. This paper aims to present a digipreneur-based (digital entrepreneur) interface design process to increase entrepreneurial interest in engineering students in Technology and Vocational Education. This research uses a research and development approach with three stages, namely: Phase I require analysis and design of the model, Phase II develops with validity and practicality, and Phase III will implement the model while in this study will only focus on stage I, namely Design Interface to Increase Entrepreneurial Interest in Engineering Students. The design of this interface uses elements of a digital entrepreneur known as an LMS Based Digipreneur. An effective and efficient alternative is needed by digipreneurs, namely the Digipreneur-based Learning Management System (LMS). It combines the concept of online learning and elements of technological entrepreneurship. It enables students to be very adaptive and develop their business because LMS facility supports and facilitates online shops that students can make independently. These integrations and implementation can be applied directly to entrepreneurship learning in higher education.
