Towards Research University through Ambidexterity Practice: A Lecturer Perspective
The concept of ambidexterity in organization theory refers to an organization's ability to innovate in explorative manners (Duncan, 1980). Ambidexterity can be identified into structural ambidexterity and contextual ambidexterity (Tushman, O'Reilly, 1990). In small medium enterprises, for example, innovation activities take contextual form since most owners act both as entrepreneurs and business leaders (Kusumastuti, et.al., 2015), while in established corporations innovation activities generally occur in structural form. Thus research takes academic institution as its locus, within which innovation activities are mandatory for all civitas academica (academic community). The study uses mixed method for collecting data through questionnaires and in-depth interviews. It shows that university has the capacity to provide context in institutional support and remuneration system as a means stimulate lecturers and researchers to be more innovative. The scheme also provided structure at the university and faculty level as tools to coordinate and integrate research projects. The organizational learning at the individual level reflects the pattern of contextual ambidexterity process

The Mapping of Internet Marketing Potential for SMEs Working on Indonesian Traditional Fabrics
Due to their rapid development, technology and internet are widely used in business, particularly for marketing. Internet marketing generates numerous benefits. This study illustrates and analyzes the potential of internet marketing for Small and Mendium enterprises (SMEs) working on Indonesian traditional fabrics in three regions: Palembang, Solo, and Banjarmasin. The study focuses on the extent to which SMEs working on traditional fabrics in these districts apply internet marketing, mapping the potential, and providing recommendations related to a better preparation of internet marketing for SMEs to tackle competition on a global level. This study applies post-positivist paradigm by using qualitative methods. The data are collected through in-depth interviews with SMEs and the governments in the three regions. To analyze the internet marketing applied by SMEs working on traditional fabrics, this study applies the theory of Kotler and Armstrong (2012) whose indicators are: creating/designing an effective website, carrying out online promotion, creating/participating in marketing and web community, and using email. The findings can be categorized into technical and non-technical findings. Technical findings show that SMEs in these cities have not applied internet marketing or online marketing optimally. Several SMEs in Solo already have social media and websites but the majority of SMEs in two other cities simply use social media (Instagram and Facebook), BBM, and WhatsApp as media for promotion. Non-technical findings show several important elements to develop in order to achieve successful internet marketing in SMEs, namely human resources, the role of associations, the role of the government, and the value of traditional fabrics
