“…For instance, study of Mohammad and Roozbeh (2014), covering multiple sectors in North America reported significant knowledge management's impact on performance.

Researchers acknowledge the importance of knowledge, innovation, social capital, and social media for organizations. Based on practical and academic importance of these variables, hypotheses were developed and relationships have been tested among knowledge management, innovation and performance for various contexts. Furthermore, hypotheses have also been drawn to test the relationships amongst knowledge management, social capital, and social media use. However, limited research examined relationships amongst all these constructs in the same research framework, and this research attempted to cover that gap. Thus, this research pays original contribution in the form of testing an extended model regarding the impact of social media use on companies’ performance involving the investigation of serial mediating effect of social capital, knowledge management, and innovation. Pakistan’s home appliance industry markets around 2500 electronic products and has 95% share domestically. Further, innovation and knowledge sharing are critical success factors for home appliance industry Therefore, this study was conducted for this industry and used survey method which resulted in 150 responses from the managers. The study finds that commercial social media’s use by companies impacts knowledge management through social capital; and a serial mediating impact of these constructs exists amongst social media use and organization performance. There are extremely limited studies for electronic companies in Pakistan given the concerned variables. Therefore they are helpful for the managers concerned as these findings suggest effective use of social media by electronic companies in particular to create better organizational knowledge and improve company performance.campaigns motivate citizens to pay for safe drinking water

Abstract Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) have a strategic role in development and have chosen as the main work program of the government. In order to compete, the SMEs must make technology as the main supporting infrastructure for UMKM activities. The importance of knowledge as a strategic asset in UMKM encourages the need for a knowledge management system (KMS). Knowledge and experience are sustainable resources as competitive advantages. Therefore, it is necessary to build a Knowledge Management System information system that is used to store and utilize the knowledge possessed to find solutions to problems that should be addressed by UMKM. The KMS will help UMKM to share their experiences and knowledge. User Centered Design (UCD) is the method chosen because each stage involves the UMKM Diskop and the UMKM users. Through the use of mobile technology, that is widely used by the community, an android-based knowledge management system was created to support the development of UMKM in the city of Bekasi. Keywords: Business Actors, Knowledge Management, SMEs, System Design, UCD Abstrak Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM) mempunyai peranan strategis terhadap pembangunan, sehingga dijadikan program kerja utama pemerintah. Agar dapat bersaing para pelaku UMKM harus menjadikan teknologi sebagai infrastruktur pendukung utama kegiatan UMKM. Pentingnya pengetahuan sebagai aset strategis di UMKM mendorong dibutuhkannya sistem manajemen pengetahuan (Knowledge Management System). Knowledge dan pengalaman merupakan sumber daya yang berkelanjutan (sustainable resources) sebagai daya saing kompetitif (competitive advantages). Oleh karena itu perlunya membangun sistem informasi Knowledge Management System (KMS) yang digunakan untuk menyimpan dan memanfaatkan knowledge yang dimiliki untuk menemukan solusi dari masalah yang di hadapi UMKM. KMS yang dibuat akan membantu pelaku UMKM untuk berbagi pengalaman maupun pengetahuan yang dimiliki. User Centered Design (UCD) merupakan metode yang dipilih karena setiap tahapannya melibatkan Diskop UMKM dan pelaku UMKM sebagai user. Melalui pemanfaatan mobile teknologi yang banyak digunakan masyarakat, maka dibuat sistem pengelolaan pengetahuan berupa KMS berbasis Android yang mendukung kegiatan perkembangan UMKM kota Bekasi.
