E-commerce in Korea has grown steadily in recent years. E-commerce has provided firms with an effective method to approach potential customers by overcoming geographical and physical barriers. However, despite the rapid growth, many e-commerce businesses closed their businesses and were not able to survive. This study aims to empirically examine the factors that determine the survival of e-commerce businesses in Korea. In particular, this study focuses on the factors related to the notion of institution-based trust that includes delivery, privacy, and security management. This research used the data set about 31,295 e-commerce businesses that have been registered in Seoul. We found that the e-commerce business that does not require extra personal information beyond the standard terms and conditions or provides a feedback mechanism by having an online board to submit a complaint has a higher chance of survival. In addition, the e-commerce business that has a secured web server, shows the specific information about the date of delivery, or provides escrow services is likely to survive longer than others. The research has extended the extant literature on the importance of trust in e-commerce by empirically examining the effects of the institution-based trust factors on the actual survival of e-commerce businesses.

The small & micro business has the characteristics of both consumer credit risk and business credit risk. In predicting the bankruptcy for small-micro businesses, the problem is that in most cases, the financial data for evaluating business credit risks of small & micro businesses are not available. To alleviate such problem, we propose a bankruptcy prediction mechanism using the credit card sales information available, because most small businesses are member store of some credit card issuers, which is the main purpose of this study. In order to perform this study, we derive some variables and analyze the relationship between good and bad signs. We employ the new statistical learning technique, support vector machines (SVM) as a classifier. We use grid search technique to find out better parameter for SVM. The experimental result shows that credit card sales information could be a good substitute for the financial data for evaluating business credit risk in predicting the bankruptcy for small-micro businesses. In addition, we also find out that SVM performs best, when compared with other classifiers such as neural networks, CART, C5.0 multivariate discriminant analysis (MDA), and logistic regression.

Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been emerging as a technology that has transformed and revolutionized various industries around the world. In recent years, businesses in Vietnam have also started to embrace AI applications to enhance their operations and gain a competitive edge in the market. As AI technologies continue to evolve rapidly, their impact on Vietnamese businesses is becoming increasingly profound. As artificial intelligence continues to progress across various fields, the need to democratize AI technology becomes increasingly clear. In a rapidly growing market like Vietnam, leveraging AI offers significant opportunities for businesses to improve operational efficiency, customer engagement, and overall competitiveness. However, significant barriers to AI adoption in Vietnam are the scarcity of skilled developers and the high cost of implementing traditional AI. No-code/low-code platforms offer an innovative solution that can accelerate AI adoption by making these technologies accessible to a wider audience. This article analyzes and understands the benefits of no-code/low-code solutions and proposes a roadmap for implementing no-code/low-code solutions in promoting AI applications in Vietnamese businesses.

Web businesses are one of the most dynamic industries where lots of new business models are emerging while the other obsoleted ones are fading away almost every day. It is, therefore, difficult to establish a classification scheme for ever-changing web businesses. Previous researches on business models focus on classifying web businesses in one dimension which made some web sites difficult to fit into one category. We propose two dimensional classification scheme based on the means and the sources of revenue. The two dimensional classification provides more clear and broad perspectives of the web businesses and ways to identify web sites in combinations of several business models.
