“…However, their technical background and the lack of field expertise condition their competency to fully understand the impacts of precision agriculture beyond the farm level. As conceptual [41,[68][69][70] and empirical contributions [45,71,72] from the field of digital agricultural technology implementation suggest, the interrelations between technologies and socio-environmental factors are not easily identifiable and require systemic thinking to be uncovered. The positivity bias in favor of precision agriculture technologies that we noticed can be explained in light of the research specializations represented in our sample.…”

The penetration of precision agriculture technologies in agrifood systems generates the need for efficient upskilling programs targeted at farmers and other actors. A critical first step in this direction is to uncover the training needs of the actors involved in precision agriculture ecosystems. The present study aimed to identify and assess gaps in competencies related to precision agriculture technologies of Greek livestock farmers and researchers specialized in this field. For farmers, we followed a partially mixed research design. To uncover researchers’ training needs, we chose a qualitative-dominant mixed approach. The results revealed that farmers lack competencies concerning the exploitation of precision agriculture technologies. Depending on their area of expertise, researchers have needs associated with predicting how research affects the future of farming and understanding how precision agriculture artifacts interplay with socio-environmental and economic factors. Despite the limited generalizability of the findings, which represent a limitation associated with the reliance of data on two small sample sizes, our results indicate that, beyond technology-related competencies, it is essential to enhance the capacity of producers and researchers to foresight and shape potential (digital) futures.

This study examined how digital transformation and economic development interact in a longitudinal analysis that went from 2016 to 2020. A persistent commitment to digitalization was shown by the statistics, which showed a constant growth in digital transformation measures including investment, adoption rates, talent development, and preparedness. Indicators of economic development, including GDP growth, employment, productivity, and corporate investments, all showed positive trends at the same time. The percentages of the calculated digital transformation impact indicated an increasing effect over time. An examination conducted over a period of five years highlighted the overall effect of digital transformation and emphasized its ongoing contribution to economic development. Policymakers, companies, and academics should take note of this research's important implications, which underscore the pivotal role that digital transformation plays in determining economic advancement in the digital era.

“…However, there are drawbacks; at first, it may be that digital platforms have the potential to provide economic and social value and accessible and transparent data that are important for innovation. However, the need to articulate value to funders and potential partners drives reliance on the quantifiable quality that further puts stakeholders first (Bustamante, 2023) so that digital platforms can sometimes be less profitable. However, digital transformation changes the innovation portfolio when facing changes in the market and technology (Zhang et al, 2023).…”

Although many studies investigated the relationship between digital platform capabilities and innovation performance, finding research that simultaneously links the two constructs to holistic empowerment and innovation still needs to be completed. This study examined the relationship between Creative Industry Holistic Empowerment and Digital Platform Capability, Holistic Innovation Capability, and Innovation Performance through a questionnaire survey of 260 creative entrepreneurs in East Java. The results of the PLS-SEM high-level analysis show that the Holistic Empowerment of Creative Industries has a strong impact on digital platform capabilities, and there is a strong partial mediating role of holistic innovation capabilities on the effect of digital platform capabilities on innovation performance. So, it is important for every creative Industry to holistically empower its resources in order to be able to master digital platforms, which ultimately have an impact on innovation and performance. Subsequent research is directed at directly relating the holistic empowerment of the creative Industry to innovation and performance, as well as focusing research subjects on one of the creative economy sub-sectors so that the benefits from research are more striking.
