Different Types

This chapter focuses on stickiness—the factors that allow sites and apps to attract and keep an audience. Critically, many tactics that promote stickiness get cheaper per user as sites get bigger. The Internet thus provides economies of scale in stickiness. Bigger, more popular sites and platforms find it easier to attract still more visitors, and to build up habits of readership. The chapter shows how the economies of scale that shape countless traditional industries, from airlines to automakers, remain powerful in the digital economy. Here, understanding digital audiences starts with digital economies of scale. The goal is to highlight some of the most powerful and best documented forces that skew the game toward the largest players. Size advantages alone are not the full story, after all. But with so many strong economies of scale, of so many different types, in so many different areas of digital media, the chapter argues that it is time to stop pretending that the Internet is a level playing field.

Economic Thinking

This chapter advances a series of propositions concerning the ways in which the normative principles of public service media find new expression in digital conditions. If the proponents of neoliberal economic thinking argue that the digital economy is best served, and best understood, in terms of the dynamics of competition operating within free markets, then the oligopolistic tendencies that have become pronounced in the last decade, manifest in the dominance of a few key digital intermediaries and in the rapid capacity to establish primacy in new digital markets, disprove such assumptions. The chapter calls for public intervention in digital media markets on several levels, each of them important, each founded on and drawing legitimacy from the expanded normative principles.

The United States’ Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has recently published statistics exploring the size and growth of the digital economy in response to the interests of the data user community and the international statistical community. BEA independently developed preliminary digital economy statistics but has relied on consultation with other statistical organizations and participation in numerous international working groups aimed at advancing coordinated and internationally comparable digital economy measurement. This report describes BEA’s digital economy measurement efforts to date including initial work towards a digital economy satellite account and related research on quantifying the value of “free” digital media the treatment and measurement of data. This report also discusses BEA’s efforts to improve price measures for high-tech goods and services, notably internet and wireless services, cloud services, and ride-hailing services. Lastly, the report provides an overview of BEA’s measurement work related to digital services international trade.

Innovation And Entrepreneurship

This research analysed the integration of innovation and entrepreneurship education for students, majoring in digital media art design. Using a grounded theory approach, we investigated the experiences of two research groups: five leaders of digital media art design courses in colleges and universities, and five successful entrepreneurs who had majored in digital media art design and had achieved significantly in the industry after graduation. From the two dimensions of ‘innovation’ and ‘entrepreneurship’, as well as the two perspectives of ‘implementer’ and ‘party’, semi-structured interviews were conducted on the core competencies that innovation and entrepreneurship talents should have the methods and experience of innovation and entrepreneurship education, the difficulties and problems in the implementation of innovation and entrepreneurship education, the need for talent among enterprises and the factors affecting entrepreneurship success. By analysing and clustering the data, we were able to comprehensively identify the main problems and aspects that require more attention in terms of cultivating innovative and entrepreneurial talents in the digital media art design major. Based on the grounded theory research method, this paper established a theoretical model, outlining the innovation of the digital media art design major and the entrepreneurship education reform path. The key internal elements of the model include mechanisms for professional talent training, curriculum integration, teacher team construction and resource support. The school-enterprise cooperation mechanism is recognised as the key external element for innovation and entrepreneurship education reform. The results provide direction for future education and teaching reform, as well as professional input for the digital media art design major. The findings encourage those involved in the digital media art design major to cultivate more high-level, pioneering professionals, so as to adapt to the transformation and upgrading of economic and social development in the context of a growing digital economy.

The research was to investigate the omni-channel distribution system for the weaving community enterprises. This research was qualitative, utilizing a case study approach. The results identify the limitations of selling creative products only through physical stores, which are unable to respond to customers’ purchasing behaviors and needs. Nevertheless, the online channel alone cannot communicate the delicacy of handmade woven products through digital media since they need to be touched and worn to be fully appreciated. This dichotomy led to the design and development of the first version of the system. The research encourages the weaving community enterprises to widen their market in order to be able to compete in digital economy. It provides valuable practical insights into local weaving community enterprises and their ability to market their creative products in the digital era. This research fills a gap in the literature relating to the customer journey and the integration of distribution channels and sheds light on the need for local weaving community enterprises to adapt to the current market conditions.

Abstract The objectives of this research were: 1) to study the media exposure, utilization, satisfaction, and need for service business information of consumers in the digital economy era, 2) to examine the relationships between the media exposure, utilization, and satisfaction with service business information of consumers in the digital economy era, and 3) to present the problems, obstacles, and suggestions regarding digital media communication of consumers in the digital economy era. A quantitative survey research method was applied. The sample consisted of 400 consumers in Bangkok, ages 37-50 years, who were exposed to digital media on tourism service businesses, such as websites, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, blogs, and Line. The research tool was a questionnaire, and the statistics used in data analysis were percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Hypothesis testing was done by using the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient. The results showed that most respondents were female, ages 37-40 years, worked in private companies, and had an average monthly income of 10,001-20,000 baht. The majority of respondents were exposed to YouTube videos and Facebook pages on restaurant service. Service business information was used to satisfy their personal interests. Regarding satisfaction with business information, YouTube was found to be the most interesting form of digital media, whereas the other forms of digital media needed the right content. The observed problem was outdated and unreliable information. The hypothesis testing showed that media exposure behavior was significantly correlated (at 0.05 level) with the media utilization and satisfaction with service business information of customers in the digital economy era. Based on the results, it is suggested that digital media be used in new media convergence and modern marketing for better control of the accuracy and reliability of data in order to ensure that the creation and development of digital media in the service sector is consistent with the digital economic policy of the national government.
