“…The use and diffusion of information and communication technologies (ICTs), in transforming society in general and commercial organisations in particular, have given rise to so-called "information societies" [1]. Consequently, research on adopting ICTs has aroused great interest among scholars in various fields, especially business [2][3][4]. To date, such studies have shown ICTs' contribution to the competitive advantage of organisations that have implemented them in terms of their productivity [5], internationalisation [6,7], performance in the labour market [8] and ability to continue being competitive [9,10].…”

As a sports activity with immense tradition, current offerings and future prospects, golfing represents a first-rate tourist resource. In choosing golfing destinations, tourists rely upon information that is available online, just as consumers do in making decisions about any resource. Thus, in our study, we sought to profile the internet presence of golf courses in Catalonia, as well as the maturity of their e-commerce. To that end, we developed an integrated model for analysing the websites of golf courses: one based on web content analysis and structured with four dimensions (i.e., information, communication, e-commerce and additional functions) and the phases of the extended model of internet commerce adoption (eMICA). Applied to all golf courses in Catalonia that operate websites, the model revealed that, despite the sport’s great importance to the local economy and tourism, the golf courses do not have an adequate online presence or sufficient platforms for communication. The present work includes information on its theoretical contribution, implications for management, limitations and future lines of research.

“…Perceived compatibility is defined as the extent to which m-commerce transaction is consistent with the existing technology infrastructure, culture, values, and preferred work practices of SMEs. Most of the earlier research on perceived compatibility and adoption has been demonstrated and approved (Alam et al, 2018). Therefore: H5: There is a positive significant relationship between perceived compatibility and m-commerce adoption.…”

The adoption of mobile commerce (m-commerce) transaction is still not equal to an extremely potential market for online business in developing countries such as Malaysia. This research aims to examine the adoption of m-commerce transaction by SMEs in the service sector by extending the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). Additional variables of perceived compatibility and perceived credibility were added to the traditional UTAUT which originally consisted of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, perceived compatibility and perceived credibility toward m-commerce adoption. This study implemented a quantitative approach and the data was collected from 245 SMEs who had previously used m-commerce. The result shows that performance expectancy, perceived compatibility, and perceived credibility have a significant influence on SMEs' mobile adoption, whereas effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions don't have a significant influence on SMEs' m-commerce adoption. In fact, SME owners believe that using electronic money in their business operations will improve their performance. IT professionals could intensify efforts to deploy m-commerce technology in the business organization to enhance productivity performance improvement of m-commerce transaction adoption. In fact, companies would benefit by making m-commerce transaction systems more helpful, secure, and compatible to use. By recognizing the factors that influence the adoption of m-commerce could help in addressing the challenges and barriers they present. Therefore, this research confirms the need to extend the traditional UTAUT in terms of m-commerce adoption.

“…La adopción de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) sigue despertando importante interés en diferentes contextos, entre ellos el empresarial (Alam, Nor, Ali, Omar, & Wel, 2017;Bresnahan & Yin, 2016). La literatura ha ofrecido evidencias de la contribución de estas tecnologías a los resultados competitivos de las organizaciones que las implantan, existiendo una amplia bibliografía que aborda desde el carácter de "commodity" (Carr, 2004) hasta la importancia de las mismas a pesar de su aparente homogeneidad (Piccoli & Lui, 2014).…”

Las empresas cooperativas presentan una idiosincrasia derivada de unos principios y valores propios de este tipo de organizaciones, que impregna todos los ámbitos de actuación de estas entidades. En este trabajo se realiza un análisis de las características organizativas relacionadas con la propiedad, gobierno y control de las empresas cooperativas que pueden contribuir a explicar diferencias en su comportamiento innovador ante la adopción de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC). El estudio propuesto ofrece un enfoque novedoso por los aspectos organizativos tratados, ya que se revisan elementos de carácter cualitativo estrechamente ligados a las políticas de participación en las cooperativas así como cuestiones de igualdad y género dentro de las mismas. Para el desarrollo de los análisis empíricos se utiliza una muestra de 99 empresas cooperativas españolas, pertenecientes a distintos sectores y tamaños. Son las organizaciones de mayor dimensión, con la gestión profesionalizada en manos de un gerente externo varón y en las que existen trabajadores familiares, las que se caracterizan por adoptar las TIC.
