“…In addition to this, the Web 2.0 constitutes an Internet-based digital platform that enables the creation of social networks, facilitating information dissemination and knowledge sharing (Joo and Normatov 2013;Pan 2012).

Web 2.0 technologies are increasingly being used within all knowledge management processes. This paper extends previous studies on the use of Internet technologies and knowledge management by analyzing factors affecting knowledge sharing through Web 2.0 technologies within SMEs. Drawing upon the technologyorganization-environment framework, a model is developed to examine how distinct contextual factors influence the use of Web 2.0 technologies for knowledge sharing. A data set of Spanish SMEs is used to test the conceptual model and hypotheses. Results show that knowledge sharing through Web 2.0 technologies emerges from internal organizational and technological resources rather than from external pressure.

Purpose -Firms are adopting Web 2.0 technologies to improve collaboration, participation and communication; however there are few empirical studies testing the impact of this adoption. The purpose of this article is to analyze if there is a linkage amongst market orientation, Web 2.0 adoption and innovativeness. Design/methodology/approach -Structural equation modeling was used to test the relationships amongst the variables. A sample of 244 firms of the hospitality industry was used. The theoretical approach is based on the market orientation and innovativeness, concepts, which have been studied by various authors in the literature. Findings -A positive relationship was found between market orientation and Web 2.0 adoption and between Web 2.0 adoption and innovativeness.Research limitations/implications -The study was developed in one industry, so in order to generalize the findings, additional testing in other industries should be developed. In addition a longitudinal study is encouraged. Practical implications -Managers are advised to adopt Web 2.0 technologies to strengthen market orientation behaviors and innovativeness. Originality/value -This article empirically tested the relationship between market orientation and Web 2.0 adoption and the impact of Web 2.0 adoption on innovativeness. Although some managers and researchers have reported some positive impacts of Web 2.0 on different aspects of the organization, there are still few empirical studies, and the authors contributed to fill this void.

In addition, although the literature suggests that the fi ndings of studies examining KM practices in large companies are unlikely to be generalizable to SMEs, very few and recent studies focus on this specifi c type of fi rms (Chan, Chong & Zhou, 2012;Huy, Rowe, Truex & Huynh, 2012).…”

Purpose-The purpose of this paper is to focus on establishing a relationship between the level of consumer commitment through knowledge sharing and what sustains innovation in SMEs through the integration of information systems to build power brands. Design/Methodology/Approach-Several procedures were used to empirically determine the study: a) the Harman one-factor test; b) the common latent factor approach; c) the confi rmatory factor-analytic approach to the Harman one-factor test. Findings and implications-The fi nding highlights the importance of a diff erentiated approach to developing and managing customer loyalty by appropriately managing and integrating information technology for knowledge sharing with consumers and employees, thus managing innovation for the purpose of power brand deployment and earning profi ts. Sažetak Svrha-Svrha je rada usredotočiti se na uspostavljanje odnosa između razina potrošačeve predanosti u dijeljenju znanja i onoga što održava inovacije u srednjim i malim poduzećima kroz integraciju informacijskih sustava za izgradnju snažnih marki. Metodološki pristup-U empirijskom istraživanju korišteno je nekoliko postupaka, a to su: a) Harman's single factor test, b) CLF-Common Latent Factor pristup, c) Konfi rmatorna faktorska analiza prema testu Harman's single factor. Rezultati i implikacije-Nalaz naglašava važnost diferenciranog pristupa u razvoju i upravljanju lojalnošću potrošača, kroz pravilno upravljanje i integriranje informacijske tehnologije za dijeljenje znanja s potrošačima i zaposlenicima, a na taj se način upravlja inovacijama za implementaciju snažne marke i stvaranje profita.
