The most crucial elements of SME growth and development are performance and innovation. In actuality, SMEs find it challenging to enhance their performance and innovation due to limited access to resources. Collaboration with other SMEs in the form of local communities can be an alternative solution to gaining access to external resources. Unfortunately, not many studies have explored the role of the local SME community in the development of innovation and performance of SMEs. This study tries to fill this gap by examining the role of local communities in expanding SMEs' access to resources, in their efforts to improve innovation and performance. Data was collected using an online questionnaire distributed to food and beverage SMEs in Malang Regency. As many as 150 questionnaires were received and considered valid for statistical data analysis using the WarpPLS program. The results show that the SME community plays an important role in improving the innovation and performance of food and beverage SMEs. It is also found that innovation can be a good mediator of community relations with the performance of SMEs. Furthermore, it is also confirmed that the SME community moderates the relationship between innovation and the performance of food and beverage SMEs.

Based on the core value of the Q&A community, the contribution of knowledge and information has a great impact on users' community evaluation. As a small social group, the relationships and interactions among community members are quickly formed through information technology. As such, the cognitive evaluation of the relationship between community members will have an impact on the intention of information contribution. This research builds on the previous research based on the social exchange theory and establishes a dual model of swift guanxi in examining the relationship between guanxi and continuous knowledge contribution. In the current study, 305 survey questionnaires were used and 249 valid questionnaires were used for analysis. The analysis results are as follows: First, information support has a positive impact on dedication-based swift guanxi. While hypothesis between information support and constraint-based swift guanxi was not be supported. Second, emotional support has a positive impact on the formation of swift guanxi from a dual perspective. Third, the swift guanxi from the dual perspective has a positive impact on the intention of continuous knowledge contribution. Finally, although personal involvement has an adjustment effect, it is a downward adjustment effect, hypotheses are not supported. The current study offers theoretical and practical implications in field of knowledge management, specifically knowledge contribution in the virtual community.

The purpose of this study is to develop a business model that efficiently converts diesel power generation systems to renewable energy microgrids (MG) in large-scale islands. Most of the previous studies on the conversion of renewable energy MG in islands had limitations dealing with efficiency from the perspective of suppliers. However, the microgrid has the characteristic of getting benefits through the interaction between the consumer and the supplier. In addition, the efficient MG business model from the perspective of new institutional economics is a structure in which consumers and suppliers jointly participate. Therefore, this study assumed that the MG business model in which the supplier's MG and the consumer's community solar participated would benefit all participants, and verified the assumptions using domestic island data. In terms of supplier investment, the cost of power supply (LCOE) of assumed model was calculated to be 14.0% lower than that of the diesel model and 3.7% lower than that of the supplier-only MG model. From the perspective of consumer investment, electricity bills are expected to be reduced by more than 200,000 won per household per year through self-generation of solar power. Social benefits are expected to reduce external environmental costs. The CO₂ emissions of the assumed model were calculated to be 39.5% lower than the diesel model and 1.5% lower than the supplier-only MG model. Therefore, the MG business model with consumer participation proposed in this study is expected to be an efficient alternative to renewable energy MG conversion in domestic islands, and is meaningful as an energy plan that improves the benefits of local residents.

Chamber of commerce and industry plays important role for development of business community and creating vibrant competition. Present paper compares chambers operations in Bangladesh, especially, Sylhet Chamber of Commerce and Industry(SCCI) by reviewing global models of chambers practices. The study identifies important gaps between international standards and Bangladesh practices. Mostly practiced chambers model in the world are: Continental Model, Anglo-Saxon Model and Mixed model or Asian model. Like other Asian countries, chambers in Bangladesh including SCCI, have been following Mixed Model. The empirical study found that SCCI is performing different developmental functions like accumulating members, collecting revenue, fulfilling corporate social responsibility and providing business development services to its members and business community. The notable constraining factors of SCCI operations are: short term orientation in assembling members, limited functional activities, lack of creative endeavors in diversifying services, linkage between SCCI and academic institutions, poor research involvement etc. The necessary suggestions for improvement of chambers performance include adoption of creative measures in various operations, providing training to the members, assisting entrepreneurs in obtaining industrial finance and extending support in the establishment of specialized industrial zone for attaining long term developmental objectives.

이 논문의 주요 목적은 커뮤니티 비즈니스의 지속가능한 성장을 위한 대상, 방법, 주체의 관계를 분석하는 것이다. 1990년대 이후 정부는 농촌경제 활성화를 위한 다양한 정책을 실행해 왔으나, 많은 정책이 효과를 보지 못했다. 그 이유는, 지역주민의 역량 강화에 대한 고려 없이 하드웨어 인프라 구축에 집중되었기 때문이다. 최근 들어 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 커뮤니티 비즈니스 정책이 전국에서 많이 실시되고 있다. 이전과 같은 문제를 겪지 않기 위해서는 기존의 커뮤니티 비즈니스에 대한 철저한 분석이 요구된다. 이를 위해, 성미산 마을 내 4개의 경제 공동체 사례를 분석하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 커뮤니티 비즈니스가 성장하기 위해서, 지역사회의 필요와 지역주민의 요구가 반영되어야 한다. 성미산 커뮤니티 비즈니스의 경우, 지역주민들은 비록 그 상품의 맛과 가격이 매력이 있지 않다 하더라도 그들의 상품에 대해 상대적인 만족감을 느끼고 있었다. 이유는 그 상품이 지역주민의 필요에 의해 만들어졌기 때문이다. 둘째, 커뮤니티 비즈니스의 초기 사업 정착 단계에 필요한 안정적 수익구조 확보를 위해서, 연관 커뮤니티 비즈니스와의 연계가 필요하다. 성미산 커뮤니티 비즈니스는 서로의 상품을 이용함으로써 안정된 수익구조를 만들었다.

Like other communication networks, the Internet is establishing and reinforcing connections between market participants. By adapting to these networks, market participants are able to obtain the power of network to create new benefits in on-line markets. In this paper, we develop three stage non-cooperative game models to analyze the community related business market in electronic commerce where network externalities are present. It is found that, regardless of its market share, individual firm in a market tends to favor a community network. The analysis also shows there exist some possibilities that these community networks can trap the market in an inferior state when better alternatives are available to yield greater social welfare.

2001년부터 시행된 유료화 정책으로 콘텐츠 제공 업체의 수익분포에서는 콘텐츠 판매액이 광고를 제치고 제 1의 수익원으로 떠오른 반면, 커뮤니티를 모델로 하는 인터넷 기업들은 다양한 수익모델의 창출에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이의 타개책으로 대표적인 커뮤니티 사이트인 프리챌이 차별화된 서비스를 기반으로 2002년 11월 유료화를 시도하였으나 기존회원의 탈퇴와 신규 회원 확보의 실패로 2003년 6월 다시 무료화로 전환하였다. 광고수입에 의존하고 있던 많은 인터넷 기업들이 경쟁회피와 수익창출을 위해 유료화 전환을 시도하고 있으나 관련 분야의 연구가 거의 없어 정책 수립에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 연구에서는 커뮤니티 사이트의 특성 및 수익구조와 프리챌의 유료화 과정을 체계적으로 살펴봄으로써 커뮤니티 사이트의 유료화 정책 및 운영에 대한 시사점을 도출한다.
