“…The rejection of hypothesis H6 indicates that technological development has no significant influence on the business model innovation of SMTAs but has a weak influence on the construct of value proposition innovation. Different from the studies conducted into other sectors in which the impact of technological development on business model innovation were extremely significant [76], in this study, however, technological development did not significantly promote the business model innovation of SMTAs but had a weak influence on the construct of value proposition innovation. However, that is similar to Henry Chesbrough's point of view that the same idea or technology taken to market through two different business models will yield two different economic outcomes and technology by itself has no single objective value.…”

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.

“…Corporate entrepreneurship (CE) has been initiated by established organizations of various purposes, including those of strategic renewal [29,30], profitability [31], innovativeness [26,28], international success [32], developing competitive advantages [10,33], extending the scope of operations into new domains [19], enhancing organizational performance [34], achieving organizational transformation [10]. Whatever the reason a firm determines to engage in CE activities, it has been an important strategy in all types of organizations [35].…”

Although the research of corporate entrepreneurship has continued to advance, few studies investigate corporate entrepreneurial activities within existing organizations in emerging market firms based on a case study approach. Building on a case study of PHNIX, a Chinese manufacturing firm, we draw on the literature on corporate entrepreneurship to develop a framework for understanding the occurrence, development and management of corporate entrepreneurial activities in organizational settings, and present a typology of some of the strategies that can be used in the process of corporate entrepreneurship. The findings considered the elements of entrepreneurial insight, pro-entrepreneurial organizational antecedents, knowledge sharing activities and internal incubation represent the core work in the fission process of corporate entrepreneurship. As such, we conclude with a discussion of theoretical and practical implications for further understanding the essence of corporate entrepreneurship in a complex organizational context. In addition, managers seeking to corporate entrepreneurship could benefit from the findings enabling them to understand and even adopt some of the principles and fission strategies used by PHNIX.

“…Organizational success is mainly based on information technologies (Yunis et al, 2018;Zhang & Li, 2018;Iacovone et al, 2017;Bourke & Crowley, 2015) and innovative organizational models (Gronum et al, 2016;Spieth et al, 2016;Philipson, 2016). However, as we will see, other elements, together with these, make exponential growth possible.…”

According to Greek mythology, Atlas held up the sky on his shoulders. Nowadays, the term atlas refers to “a book of maps or charts” (1). In this paper, the term is used in both senses. On the one hand, the purpose is to understand the conditions favoring – hold up – the birth and the evolution of exponential organizations. On the other hand, the goal is to draw a concept map that allows us to identify the interactional dynamics among the actors involved in this evaluative process.  In other words, first I'll try to know who “holds up the sky” (static interpretation), and then we will see who “lives in it” (moving interpretation). The idea is that disruptive innovation mediates the relationship between environmental/organizational features (conditions) and exponential growth (phenomenon). So far, little consideration has been given to the favorable conditions that can allow organizations to become exponential. This paper  aims to pave the way for future systematized research on the ExO’s genesis and development.
