“…A similar argument could be made regarding knowledge in the context of the craft brewing industry, which has experienced substantial growth in the last decade (Aquilani et al, 2015;Baginski and Bell, 2011;Brewers of Europe, 2015;Duarte Alonso et al, 2016;Ellis and Bosworth, 2015;Reid et al, 2014). First, the increasing numbers of craft breweries and craft beer labels has resulted in more alternatives and choices for consumers interested in experiencing such diversity.…”

This exploratory study investigates the perceived potential of craft beer tourism (CBT) in Australia, focusing on two important stakeholder groups, commercial and hobby craft brewers, and adopting stakeholder theory (ST). The importance of these stakeholders is primarily illustrated through several forms of CBT development, and perceived challenges. Fundamentally, beer tours, trails, festivals, and combining CBT with other leisure activities emerged as key forms of CBT. Geographic distance, excise taxes, price, and government regulations are the main identified challenges. Associations between the various ST-related theses and the study’s findings are revealed, particularly regarding collaborative efforts to maximise perceived opportunities

“…Today's marketing challenges are also increasing along with technological advancements. Consumers prefer to find products through digital media [36,37]. However, SMEs have not optimally carried out advertising and marketing strategies or have grasped or used online marketplaces and promotions [34].…”

Indonesian batik small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are rapidly growing, but they face many challenges in developing their business. For this reason, we propose a combination of open innovation and engagement theory to overcome these challenges. We conducted interviews with 27 local government officers (external stakeholder) and 57 managers of batik SMEs (internal stakeholder). We confirmed the interview results with 20 batik experts and representatives from the Indonesian Ministry of Industry in the Focus Group Discussion. We have divided the findings of this study into two categories: Java and outside of Java, since the two areas have different characteristics. According to our findings, the biggest challenge of batik SMEs in Java is the emergence of the batik printing business. Meanwhile, batik SMEs outside of Java are having difficulty obtaining raw materials. Open innovation has been implemented by some batik SMEs in Indonesia and can improve their business performance. However, more batik SMEs do not implement open innovation due to the lack of their skills and involvement of other stakeholders. As a result, we suggest that open innovation in the Indonesian batik industry needs to be supported by the participation of various parties or that open innovation is combined with engagement theory.

“…Similarly to microwineries, microbreweries, considered as small businesses specialised on the production of distinctive styles of beer through their own process [2], are growing in numbers in recent years. Some studies have focused on the role that craft breweries play for the innovation processes [11].…”

For a long time mainstream economics has neglected the non-economic side related to economic growth. Yet, today there is increasing awareness of the role that social capital can play in spurring Local Economic Development especially in underdeveloped, remote, or lagging contexts. Microwineries represent a good example of SMEs, being small realities serving the local markets and spaces that strengthen local communities. The European Mediterranean regions have commonly been connected with these sectors. This study aims at pushing the body of knowledge in the development of microwineries in the lagging-behind contexts of Southern Europe, particularly in Southern Italy. To support the discussion, the present study will adopt a deductive approach, by analysing the San Diego wine cluster taken as a case study, since its wine market recently boomed. Findings will highlight the microwineries symbiosis with the territory itself. Useful lessons will be drawn for encouraging policymakers in undertaking actions towards strengthening the potential of microwineries and building networks among them.
