Sustainability in industry: assessing responsible production practices in Kazakhstan
type: item
description: Responsible production is critical to sustainable industrial development, yet its implementation varies across sectors. This study investigates the state of responsible production practices in Kazakhstan, focusing on environmental compliance, operational efficiency, and employee well-being. A structured survey was conducted among 100 Kazakh enterprises across key industrial sectors, including metallurgy, mechanical engineering, and energy production. The survey utilised proportional sampling to ensure representation, and data were systematically analysed using SPSS for statistical processing. Descriptive and comparative analyses were conducted to identify trends, challenges, and sectoral differences. The results reveal that while most companies report moderate improvements in operational efficiency, significant challenges remain in environmental responsibility. Only a small percentage allocate resources for ecological investments. Waste management and reverse logistics are underdeveloped, with many companies lacking structured recycling and sustainability initiatives. Although 80% of firms report some engagement in eco-innovations, adopting advanced technologies remains limited. Employee well-being initiatives, including workplace improvements and insurance coverage, are widely implemented, but psychological support services remain inconsistent. These findings highlight both progress and persistent gaps in responsible production in Kazakhstan, underscoring the need for stronger regulatory frameworks, increased investment in eco-innovation, and a shift toward circular economy principles.

Enhancing green sustainable growth through green innovation: the moderating role of perceived marketplace influence
type: item
description: In the context of technologies driving corporations’ investment in green innovation initiatives, this study employs a mixed-methods approach, integrating qualitative thematic analysis and quantitative structural equation modeling to examine how green innovation activities influence consumer attitudes, purchase intentions, and brand defense behaviors. Qualitative insights drawn from consumer narratives enrich the quantitative findings by uncovering deeper motivations and emotional factors influencing consumer behavior towards green products. The findings reveal that firms’ green innovation significantly positive impact on customer green behaviors through their environmental concerns and perceptions of innovation. Additionally, the customer’s perceived marketplace influence plays a crucial role in reinforcing the customer’s perceptions of innovation on their green purchase intention, while diminishing the customer’s environmental concerns on their green brand defense. Through green marketing strategies, including transparent communication, credible certifications, and explicit sustainability claims, the organization’s green innovation practices significantly influence consumer attitudes and willingness to purchase green products. Furthermore, the findings emphasize the critical roles of brand reputation, transparency, and consumer trust in stimulating proactive brand defense against negative publicity as well as the importance of emotional attachments and personal experiences in driving these defensive behaviors.

A proposed framework for developing a corporate roadmap towards sustainable innovation and technology adoption
type: item
description: In 2016, a beverage company in South Africa called Alpha underwent a major merger and change of ownership whilst trying to navigate a challenging macro environment. As a result, conflicting business models and ineffective innovation have resulted in a lack of innovation and an inefficient supply chain in the company. The business and innovation challenges experienced by Alpha generated the research objectives of this study, which were to identify inhibitors to the company’s drive for innovation and to develop a framework for a strategic corporate roadmap to enable Alpha to initiate and sustain innovation and adopt technology in the future. A theoretical framework was developed from a review of corporate innovation literature and included scenario analysis and PESTLE and SWOT analyses as methodologies. The framework was tested in Alpha, as a single case study, and the Delphi technique was applied to interview company experts regarding the potential outcome of three scenarios, namely the impact of electricity, water, and food shortages on the company. Analysis of the responses indicated that the block on innovation was not the result of a lack of ideas from employees, but rather the lack of a proper forum to brainstorm and present them. Innovation potential was dormant within the business, and the correct tools and framework were needed to guide it; the framework was developed to create a sustainable, long-term innovation implementation and technology adoption plan for the business. While the framework has limitations, it does offer the business an actionable work plan that can engage creative thought, give direction to technical teams, and mitigate new competitor risks.

Driving factors for the transformation to sustainable entrepreneurship in small and medium production companies
type: item
description: Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are significant contributors to economic growth. Being the most represented group of enterprises, SMEs can carry the greatest weight in contributing to sustainable development by transforming into sustainable entrepreneurship (SE). However, SMEs are substantially limited in resources, and to assist SMEs, first and foremost, it is important to understand what facilitates the transformation. Thus, the study’s objective was to identify driving factors for transformation to SE in production SMEs. A monographic literature review was conducted to provide a comprehensive summary of the latest research. Further, as a result of the secondary data and the content analysis methods, 6 driving and 7 assisting factors were identified that support the central feature of transformation to SE – the ability to find new opportunities. Based on the connections among the discovered factors, the authors developed an Innovation-Driven Development (IDD) conceptual framework. The framework illustrates the pathway to SE for production SMEs.

Digital divide and inclusive labor productivity growth in Sub-Saharan Africa
type: item
description: Sub-Saharan Africa is more likely to overcome existing inequalities seen through labour productivity, financial inclusion, and economic participation, particularly among rural communities, women, and the economically disadvantaged. Although technology is evolving quickly, factors such as infrastructure gaps, high costs, and female disempowerment remain hindrances to inclusive growth in the area. This research will analyse these challenges, using a combination of quantitative and qualitative data, comparing World Bank and The International Telecommunication Union datasets of internet penetration and mobile money take-up and frameworks of productivity in 34 countries with targeted surveys of 1,000 households and businesses in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. The range investigated comprise of user populations of individuals, households, and businesses from Sub-Saharan Africa, especially those that show notable differences between digital accesses in order to encompass a representative sample of the entire region of study. Results show that 84% of the population is within 3G reach. Yet less than 22% of the population can afford to use mobile internet, for instance, 10.5% of monthly income per 1GB of data or mobile devices (25% of GDP per capita). Digital gender gaps still exist, with 34–37% of women less likely to be digital enablers. Yet initiatives such as M-PESA in Kenya show that focused approaches can fill the void, driving a 37.5 million user increase in financial inclusion. Urgent policy action must address affordability, infrastructure, and digital literacy in order to realize productivity gains and equitable economic participation to help close the digital divide and foster inclusive, tech-enabled economic development throughout the region, thereby concluding the study.

The development needs of business competencies of social entrepreneurs: a case study of Latvia
type: item
description: The competitiveness, growth and sustainability of social enterprises are affected by a number of factors, including the competencies of individuals running the business. The present research aim was to identify the business knowledge, skills and competencies required by social enterprise managers across various regions of Latvia in the realities of their economic activity. To achieve the research objectives, a representative survey of social enterprises was used. The results of the study revealed that there were: (1) statistically significant differences in the competency needs of social enterprises, but the need for knowledge and the demand for skills were equally different; (2) statistically significant differences in the need for knowledge about marketing activities and the need for competencies on how to inform the public about social enterprise products; (3) as the level of formal education of business managers increased, the need for competencies on how to inform the public about social enterprise products also increased, reaching statistical significance. The research can be useful in planning the development of social entrepreneurs, as well as it broadens the public’s understanding of the needs of sustainable social entrepreneurship.

Applying technology acceptance models in the digital transformation of educational institutions: a systematic review
type: item
description: The implementation of digital transformations in the management of educational organizations is a complex process that requires not only structured solutions but also consistent realization. Technology adoption models, such as TPACK, TAM, and UTAUT, help structure and analyze the factors that drive the adoption of digital technologies in educational institutions. This article aims to analyze the principles of operation of technology adoption models (TAM, UTAUT, and TPACK) and their application in educational organizations undergoing digital transformation. The study examines how these models help understand technology adoption in the education sector, highlighting the key challenges and opportunities revealed in previous scientific research. The study applies a systematic analysis of scientific sources using the PRISMA method. The research results showed the use of TAM and UTAUT models in digital transformations of educational institutions does not cover the pedagogical aspect. Therefore, the TPACK model effectively expands the findings and provides a broader framework for identifying the reasons behind the slow adoption of digital transformations in educational institutions. The analysis presented in the article can be useful for educational institutions seeking to implement digital transformations more efficiently and rapidly within their organizations.

The role of AI-powered chatbots in enhancing customer experience: systematic literature review
type: item
description: The engagement of chatbots in customer experience management is increasing as a disruptive innovation in the digital ecosystem. The goal of the research conducted by the authors was to explore the application of AI chatbots to be used in e-commerce to improve customer satisfaction levels. The systematic literature review and data-analysis presented in the paper involve the peer-reviewed literature published in the last three years. This study includes peerreviewed research articles on AI-powered chatbots and customer experience published between 2021 and 2024. After searching Scopus and PubMed and applying exclusion criteria, five relevant full-text articles from the last three years were selected. Scopus and PubMed databases were used for record searching; finally, twenty-one study-relevant articles were chosen for the research. After applying some exclusion criteria, which were duplicates, other than the English language, non-AI-powered chatbots, and not accessed for full-text articles, five peer-reviewed articles were finally used for analysis. The PRISMA approach was utilized to synthesize the findings. Cross-study compatibility, validity, and reliability of sources were validated and assessed to derive more accurate data-analysis results. Consequent themes include the impact of anthropomorphism on perceived personalization qualities, behavioral trust and intention, and the part played by chatbots in reducing perceived risks in electronic commerce. The results of the research support chatbots as stewards of business and customer service operations to achieve global sustainability and citizenship objectives, including inclusive interactions for all users.

Inclusivity of employees with special needs and value creation in organizational settings
type: item
description: The organisational structure and business strategies of for-profit organisations are built on workforce efficiency, speed, and quality of operations that are largely globally wished to be aligned with sustainability principles. The concept of inclusivity gains more attention in organisational strategies and goals; however, its practical application is nuanced and shaded by different challenges, such as employers’ silent ignorance and doubts about the quality of work and efficiency of tasks of persons with special needs. Businesses care about their good reputation, fast processes, and results, keeping non-financial goals on the second hand, if keeping them at all. The inclusive business, the challenges of employing individuals with special needs, and the value they bring to organisations are integral parts of today’s world concerns, where equal opportunities are the value of an organisation and society. This article aims to explore valuecreation elements and their interdependencies in organisational settings. An explorative study of organisational value creation practices in special needs employees’ inclusive organisational research results in confronting the stereotypes by providing subtle evidence and observational insights that employees with special needs, being integrated into the labour market, perform their tasks effectively, are loyal, productive, and responsible, confirming that when socially accepted and physically welcomed by organisational communities they can successfully contribute to creating significant value for businesses, as well as reducing the social burden and costs for society and the country.

Strategic use of artificial intelligence in enterprise supply chain management
type: item
description: This study analyzed the strategic use of artificial intelligence (AI) in supply chain management to optimize efficiency, accuracy, and decision-making. A comprehensive review of academic literature and relevant business case studies was conducted to assess the impact of AI on logistics process optimization, decision-making, and operational efficiency within the supply chain. Analytical, inductive, and deductive methods were applied to critically break down and examine the collected information. The results revealed that the implementation of AI brings significant benefits. For example, Lithuanian trade company Maxima has successfully reduced inventory levels by 20% and improved sales forecast accuracy by 15% through AI-driven demand prediction systems. Similarly, another company Eugesta has experienced a 30% reduction in inventory levels and a 20% improvement in sales forecast accuracy due to AI algorithms. Building on this research, the authors propose a model that integrates AI-driven supply chain optimization strategies, outlining key factors for enhancing business efficiency, predictive accuracy, and decision-making. The proposed model aims to serve as a structured framework for companies looking to leverage AI for sustainable competitive advantage in supply chain management.

Analyzing consumer behavior and interventions to reduce fashion waste based on the comprehensive action determine model
type: item
description: This study investigates consumer behaviour regarding fashion products, specifically within the context of frugal living, to promote environmental sustainability and substantially reduce fashion waste. Using the Comprehensive Action Decision Making Model (CADM) based on Inference Theory, the research employs rigorous statistical analyses, including repeated measures ANOVA, the Scheffé test, and Pearson correlation. We systematically assessed three intervention strategies: basic environmental knowledge, cost considerations, and benchmarking information. The results indicated that the mean scores for the first intervention were statistically similar to those of the second intervention. However, the difference between the second and the third intervention was significantly notable, with the third strategy yielding a lower mean score. Moreover, the repeated measures ANOVA revealed substantial differences among the three interventions, strongly supporting our hypothesis with relevant p-values. Ultimately, this study convincingly demonstrated that the third intervention, which focused on benchmarking information, was the most effective in influencing consumers’ behaviour towards sustainable fashion choices. This also highlights the nudge strategy of fashion waste reduction promotion is significant for the Indonesia people.

Impact of IOT on B2B digital marketing: investigating the mediating role of operational effectiveness
type: item
description: The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) has driven a significant shift in business processes, particularly in online marketing. This study examines the impact of IoT implementation on marketing performance, emphasizing the mediating role of operational effectiveness in a business-to-business (B2B) context. Using data from a German company, the research employs regression analyses based on the Baron and Kenny framework to assess direct and mediated relationships. The findings reveal that IoT has a significant positive effect on marketing performance. While operational effectiveness alone does not significantly predict IoT’s impact, it has a strong direct influence on marketing outcomes. The study confirms a partial mediation effect, with a small yet statistically significant indirect pathway. These results highlight the important role of operational effectiveness in maximizing the benefits of IoT for marketing success. This research contributes to the limited literature on IoT’s mediating variables in marketing and offers actionable insights for optimizing IoT-driven B2B marketing strategies.
