  • sme policy formulation and implementation in africa unpacking assumptions as opportunity for research direction
    Journal of Business Research, 2018
    Co-Authors: Aminu Mamman, Justice Nyigmah Bawole, Motolani Agbebi, Abdulrazak Alhassan
    Abstract:

    The increasing acknowledgement of the role of SMEs in economic growth and reducing unemployment in SSA brings forth the need for research into understanding the role and impact of the SME policy and its outcomes. However, the lack of adequate critical examination of the current SME policies across SSA as well as the absence of a holistic conceptual framework has put limitations on the further development of literature in the field. In this article, we have attempted to critique the existing assumptions underpinning the SME policy. We have also advanced a conceptual framework and propositions to enable the holistic research that can shed more light on our understanding of the interactions between SME policies, the business Environment (Context), the entrepreneur, and policy outcomes. Finally, we proposed research questions and an agenda that should guide future research.

  • understanding saas adoption the moderating impact of the Environment Context
    International Journal of Information Management, 2019
    Co-Authors: Tiago Oliveira, Ricardo Martins, Saonee Sarker, Manoj A Thomas, Ales Popovic
    Abstract:

    Abstract In the information management literature, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is recognized as a technology capable of providing operational and financial benefits to firms, and it is rising as the dominant IT service delivery model. Considered to be a promising solution it is garnering interest among researchers and professionals. However, SaaS can represent a vulnerability to firms due to its nature. The weighing of the pros and cons leads to firms’ uncertainty regarding SaaS adoption. Through the lenses of technology-organization-Environment (TOE) framework we examine the Contextual factors that influence the adoption of SaaS. Furthermore, this study explores the moderating effects of the Environmental Context in the adoption of SaaS and how it shapes the direct influences of technological and organizational Contexts of the TOE framework. Data collected from 259 firms were used to test the proposed model. The study found the significance of the technology, organization, and Environment Context for SaaS adoption. Moreover, it was found the moderator influence of the Environment Context between the organization Context and SaaS adoption. This study contributes to a deepest understanding of the determinants of SaaS adoption by providing a holistic theoretical lens, advancing newer paths of approaching the TOE framework.
