This review synthesizes the burgeoning intersection of digital transformation and human resource management (HRM) within Nigeria’s renewable energy sector. The research aims to elucidate how digital technologies are reshaping HR practices and strategies, and to what extent these changes are influencing the sector’s growth and sustainability. Employing a systematic literature review methodology, the study aggregates findings from peer-reviewed journals, industry reports, and case studies pertinent to the Nigerian context. The review reveals a significant shift towards automation and data-driven decision-making in HR functions, including recruitment, training, performance management, and employee engagement. It also highlights a growing emphasis on strategic HRM to foster a workforce agile enough to adapt to digital innovations. Key findings suggest that while digital transformation presents opportunities for efficiency gains and competitive advantage, it also poses challenges related to workforce digital literacy and the alignment of HR strategies with technological advancements. The implications of this study are twofold: it offers a roadmap for HR practitioners in the renewable energy sector to navigate the digital landscape effectively, and it provides policymakers with insights into the necessary frameworks to support the sector’s digital transition. The review concludes with recommendations for future research, particularly the need for empirical studies to validate the identified trends and strategies in the Nigerian renewable energy context.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the adoption of new technology within the Meetings, Exhibitions and Conventions sector in Thailand. Theoretical framework: An adapted version of the diffusion of innovation theory combined with variables from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is used to define the key variables upon which data is gathered. Design/methodology/approach: The study reviews the MEEC/MICE sector in Thailand and its importance, the existing level of the adoption of new technology and the government plan to encourage further adoption. An online survey of 302 MEEC/MICE Organizers is analysed using stepwise Multiple Linear regression to estimate the attitude of the organizers toward new technology and which factors have the greatest influence on their intention to adopt new technology further. Findings: The results indicate that 85% of the study participants are currently adopting MEEC/MICE technological innovation in one way or another, and 99.6% are of the opinion that they will adopt it in the future. The study also indicates that the business environment, of which government policy is a major factor, can have an influence on both the attitude and the adoption intention of technology, but that their own attitude to technology is the factor with most weight and that the respondent’s attitude to new technology is mostly influenced by their employees’ capability. Research, Practical & Social implications: The Thai government is attempting to change the Thai economy from a manufacturing economy to a high value advanced economy. The further adoption of new technology in this important sector is a vital part of this attempt. Originality/value: The study is the first study in Thailand to use inferential statistical analsyis to estimate the most important factors determining MEEC/MICE operators’ adoption of new technology.

Incentive travel tourists generally come in large groups and travel at the full expense of their company. Their expenditure is greater than ordinary tourists, but they receive less attention in Indonesia’s marketing strategy as quality tourists. This condition occurs due to a lack of understanding of the incentive travel business process. This lack of understanding is because research on the MICE industry is more concerned with meetings/conferences or exhibitions than incentive travel. Also, a reference book that discusses incentive travel and its relation to the choice of destination processes or destination marketing strategy is limited. This study aims to determine who is involved in the destination selection process and their relationships. The research method used is a qualitative method using desk research for data collection and content analysis for analytical methods. The research method used is a qualitative method using desk research for data collection and content analysis for the analysis method.

Keywords: incentive travel, stakeholders, MICE industry, quality tourist, destination selection
