Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME – Indonesian: UMKM – Usaha Micro, Kecil dan Menengah) are the key to increase growth, create employment, act as the source of people’s income, to fulfil the need of goods and services, to increase the added values which eventually influence the economic growth. This research is aimed to explain how business environment and capability influence the competitive advantage which plays an important role that determines the business performance of MSME. The total sample able to be collected with web-based design is 56 MSME/UMKM from all over Indonesia. The analysis technique used is structural equation modeling (SEM). The study proves that business environment does not significantly influence the business performance of MSME/UMKM. However, this variable contributes significant indirect influence with a greater level than its direct influence. The finding indicates that improvement in business environment will be able to boost the business performance if it is combined with the improvement in competitive advantage of the MSME/UMKM.

The purpose of this paper is to capture firms’ perceptions on the relationship between change management, digitalization, business performance, and green development. The adaptation of digital technologies has challenged the business environment, leading to a major incorporation of the role of entrepreneurs in the process of fostering green development. Building on data from a survey study with 270 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and large companies located in a relatively developed Hungarian region and adopting the Strategic Action Field (SAF) theory, firms’ perceptions on change management, digital maturity, and green development were explored. The data was analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Results revealed that change management has a direct positive effect on digital maturity and on business performance and has a small effect on companies’ commitment towards green development. This paper contributes to the debate on the relationship between digitalization and green development within entrepreneurial organizations.

This study is designed to test an empirical investigation of the environmental turbulence and fear in predicting entrepreneurial improvisation in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Pakistan. This research aims to analyze whether the emotional response of fear drives the decision-makers of SMEs towards the use of improvisation strategy in a turbulent environment in an uncertain business world or not. The target population for this study includes owners, managers, and directors of SMEs listed in the Chambers of Commerce of capital cities of Pakistan. Data were collected through a quantitative survey from 433 respondents by using the cluster sampling technique. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses of the study and conduct path analysis. The findings of this study reveal that environmental turbulence leads the decision-makers towards the use of improvisation strategy by managing their emotions of fear rather than sticking to the plans in SMEs in Pakistan. Moreover, the emotional response of fear in entrepreneurs mediates the relationship between environmental turbulence and entrepreneurial improvisation in SMEs in Pakistan. This study contributes to the field of SMEs by suggesting that entrepreneurs can compete in the frequently changing business world through improvisation. This study helps the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Authority (SMEDA) to understand the importance of entrepreneurial improvisation during uncertainties in the complex business environment, which leads the organization towards innovation.

Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) has an important role in the national economy. Many MSMEs in Indonesia are family businesses, one of them is “tofu” production in Bogor. Although these businesses are constrained by the prices of raw materials, most of them can survive. The purpose of this study were (1) to analyze the characteristics of the “tofu” business (2) analyze the influence of the family and the economic environment on the performance of the “tofu” business. 114 respondents are collected using purposive sampling method. Data are analyzed using the approach of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). This study shows that based on the revenue, “tofu” businesses are micro, small and medium enterprises. The results also suggest that the culture and economic environment significantly affect the business performance. Culture can improve business performance, while the economic environment can decrease the business performance.
