What about Data-Driven Business Models? Mapping the Literature and Scoping Future Avenues

The paper aims to perform an assessment of the literature at the intersection of data and business models, examining the extent to which the data-driven business model (DDBM) is considered in the current literature and how it is characterised in terms of approaches, benefits and barriers. A systematic literature review (SRL) of the available body of knowledge on these topics was performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach. The SRL reveals limited but rapidly growing coverage of the cutting-edge phenomenon on the part of scientific studies. In problematising the extant literature, competitive, cultural and strategic approaches are proposed together with the relative enablers fostering the adoption of each approach. Benefits and barriers to the implementation of a DDBM are also discussed across technical, organisational and financial dimensions. The insights derived from a critical review of the DDBM literature point out gaps, which may itself inform future research and theory development in this area, as well as support practitioners’ decision-making on the datatisation of business models

Profiling a new woman entrepreneur from a territorial perspective. A cross-sectoral exploratory study

This paper aims to outline the role of territory for the trajectories of international expansion, styles of command and innovative approaches of women business proprietorships operating in the various economic sectors. The exploratory investigation uses the three-dimensional ILI model which allows the joint analysis of the three dimensions of interest (internationalization, leadership, innovation) articulated into specific sub-dimensions. The ILI model is validated through a qualitative survey conducted on a convenience sample. The primary data is collected using the focus group technique. This work shows that territory influences internationalization, leadership and innovation of women business proprietorships in the different economic sectors. Moreover, it also leads to a new taxonomy of women business proprietorships, which can contribute to the understanding of the interconnections and interdependencies between business and territor
