    Opis:
    Research background: The executives of SMEs that have higher innovativeness, risk taking, proactiveness, competitive aggressiveness and autonomy dynamize the strategic posture of SMEs, thus, those firms can reach better financial and economic conditions. However, existence of many differences among countries, such as cultural values and market conditions, can cause variations in EO of these executives. Therefore, this fact can be one of the reasons why the performance and financial power of SMEs differ in various countries.  Purpose of the article: This study aspires to find out the differences in entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of younger and older, female and male, and more and less educated executives of SMEs from various countries. Methods: 1141 Czech and 479 Turkish executives were analyzed separately by the Mann-Whitney U test, to find out the differences in EO. The researcher ran the analyzes by SPSS Statistical Software. Findings & Value added: The results indicate that risk-taking and competitive aggressiveness of the executives differ regarding their gender, while innovativeness, proactiveness and autonomy do not. While there are significant differences between proactiveness, autonomy and innovativeness of older and younger executives, no differences exist in risk-taking and competitive aggressiveness. Regarding educational status, more educated executives perform better in innovativeness, proactiveness and autonomy, while less educated executives have higher propensities in risk taking and competitive aggressiveness. Masculinity, fear of failure, perception of obstacles, motivation of SMEs' executives and location of businesses might be the reasons of these results. By including the survey respondents from different countries and all dimensions of EO into the analyses, this study finds similarities and differences in gender, age and education levels and of SMEs' executives and their EO. This research also suggests some policies for governments and institutions to close the gap between EO of the executives. These facts not only make this research to unique, but also constitute a valuable addition to the literature.

    Opis:
    Research background: The differences in the legal structures, tax rates, and cultural-linguistic issues of various countries have always been a significant concern for SMEs in their exporting activities and internationalization processes. However, since firm-level characteristics might provide some advantages or disadvantages in their operations, their perceptions of export impediments might vary across size, age, and sector groups. Purpose of the article: This paper investigates the perceptions of export impediments by 408 larger-smaller, older-younger, and manufacturing-nonmanufacturing Czech, Slovakian and Hungarian SMEs in a country-based perspective. Methods: The researchers use the random sampling method to create research samples and employ an internet-mediated questionnaire to collect the research data. The researchers use both Independent Sample T-test and ANOVA analyses to find differences between size, age, and sector groups. Findings & value added: While the differences exist between the perceptions of Slovakian larger-smaller and manufacturing-nonmanufacturing SMEs regarding cultural differences, the perceptions of legal and tax-related export impediments by SMEs do not differ depending on their age, size, and sector. This paper contributes to the literature by confirming various perceptions of SMEs in different countries and different characteristics regarding export obstacles and providing an entity-specific and international scope that policymakers and SMEs can benefit from. Awareness of the policymakers regarding the results of this paper that includes differences and similarities in SMEs' perceptions of export barriers might make them have close interactions with SMEs to reduce SMEs' concerns regarding their export risks. On the other hand, SMEs that are aware of the results of this paper can be more interested in having a broader network that includes close relationships not only with intermediary firms, but also with governments to overcome the export impediments.

    Opis:
    Research background: Comparing to larger businesses, SMEs encounter more problems in their operations. Since innovativeness enables SMEs to be more competitive against their rivals, having more innovative activities might make SMEs overcome these issues. Nevertheless, depending on businesses-founders/owners' characteristics, SMEs' innovativeness in organizational, local, and global extents might differ. Purpose of the article: This research explores differences in family-owned SMEs' innovativeness regarding the age of their founders/entrepreneurs, legal form, and succession of these businesses. Methods: The researchers used a questionnaire survey. Data collection process was completed in 2020. The research sample includes 343 family-owned SMEs that operate in Czechia. The normality test result directs the authors to perform an Independent sample T-test to find differences between selected variables. Findings & value added: According to the obtained results, global innovativeness does not differ depending on firms-owners/entrepreneurs' characteristics. However, limited liability firms perform better in local innovativeness than other firms structured in different legal forms. Moreover, the organizational innovativeness of SMEs with successors is greater than firms without successors. While organizational innovativeness does not differ depending on entrepreneurs/founders' age and legal structure of businesses, local innovativeness does not differ depending on entrepreneurs/founders' age and successors' existence in these businesses. The educational level of entrepreneurs/founders, sector, and SMEs' location might be reasons for similarities and differences between SMEs' innovativeness. From the policy perspective, based on the obtained results, the authors suggest creating industrial zones. Furthermore, policymakers' collaborations with other essential players in the market might stimulate innovative attitudes among businesses. This paper's main contribution to the existing literature is to fill the gap regarding organizational, local, and global innovativeness of family-owned SMEs by providing detailed and empirical results about entrepreneurs' and firms' characteristics. Thus, this paper might draw businesses, policymakers, academicians, and international readers' attention concerning family-owned SMEs' innovativeness.

    Opis:
    Research background: Due to having lack of financial power and low amount of revenues, most of SMEs' major concerns are bankruptcy and low financial performance. Those issues are risky situations for SMEs when making for their exporting activities. Therefore, depending on their performance and bankruptcy risk, they might more intensively perceive export barriers and this fact might determine their export decisions. Purpose of the article: This paper examines whether financial performance and bankruptcy concerns of SMEs affect their perceptions of export obstacles or not. Methods: This research performs random sampling method and directs an internet-mediated questionnaire to the selected respondents who are the executives of 408 Czech, Slovakian and Hungarian SMEs. To examine the influences of firm performance and bankruptcy on the perceptions of export impediments by SMEs, this paper employs Ordinal Logistic Regression Test. Findings & value added: The results show that SMEs having less healthy financial conditions less intensively perceive cultural-linguistic export barriers in comparison with SMEs having better financial performance. Moreover, firm performance is not a predictor variable in the perceptions of export costs, legislative and tax-related barriers by SMEs. On the other hand, while SMEs having more bankruptcy concerns more intensively perceive tax-related and cultural-linguistic barriers, bankruptcy concerns of SMEs do not influence their perceptions of export costs and legislative differences. Although many studies have investigated the impacts of financial conditions of SMEs on their internationalization and exporting decisions, they are isolated with only a market or only with a financial issue. The limited extents of those studies cause a partial investigation of export and financial issues of SMEs and make readers having a narrow perspective in this specific area. By focusing on various export obstacles and financial issues that SMEs face in different markets, this research offers a detailed understanding of SMEs' perceptions regarding their financial conditions and export barriers, from a comprehensive perspective. In this regard, this is the research gap that this paper aims to fill.

    Opis:
    Research background: SMEs encounter more survival impediments than larger businesses. Innovativeness is a crucial attribute for smaller firms to overcome these barriers since it positively influences their performance, competitiveness, and capability to operate in the long term. However, depending on firm characteristics, the innovativeness of SMEs might differ. Purpose of the article: This research investigates whether the innovativeness of family-owned SMEs differs depending on their size, sector, area of activity, and succession on the sample of 350 family-owned SMEs that operate in Czechia. Methods: The data collected in the Czech Republic in 2020 through the structured self-administered questionnaire were analyzed using Skewness-Kurtosis and Levene's normality tests and Independent Sample T-test to find the differences in SMEs innovativeness depending on their selected characteristics. Findings & value added: According to the results, SMEs' innovativeness differs depending on their size, industry, and area activity. On the other hand, the analyses confirmed the nonexistence of the differences in SMEs' innovative-ness concerning succession involvement. The region of SMEs' operation, the scope of their activities, and firms' executives' age might be crucial arguments to explain the differences and similarities in these enterprises' innovativeness. Even though the research focuses only on the SMEs located in Czechia, the similarity of the issues all SMEs face when competing with the larger firms worldwide, especially if we take into consideration the countries with a similar level of development and overall institutional business conditions, allows for generalizing our results and might draw readers' attention to this paper. Policymakers, universities, international institutions, and financial institutions might cooperate to create industrial zones, encourage research centers, and provide education and financial support to stimulate SMEs' innovative activities.

    Opis:
    Research background: Because of the rapid improvements in advanced technological tools and widely usage of the Internet among the world, most of SMEs in various countries have become able to apply their marketing activities through online marketing and social media platforms that are less costly for them. Since SMEs encounter many financing constraints, these marketing options might be very beneficial for them to use for their marketing activities. However, socio-economic and cultural factors differ in each corner of the globe. Purpose of the article: This paper aims to investigate international differences between usage of online marketing and social media platforms by SMEs. Methods: The authors of this paper have selected 1156 Czech, Slovakian and Hungarian SMEs from Cribis database by employing random sampling method. An online questionnaire was directed by the researchers to have responses from managers and owners of SMEs. To find differences in selected variables, the researchers perform ANOVA analyses with Post-Hoc tests in SPSS statistical program. Findings & Value added: Regarding the size of businesses, Hungarian SMEs in both size categories: micro and small-medium sized, apply social media platforms in their operations more than Czech and Slovakian SMEs. When it comes to marketing activities, some similarities are in existence depending on size and age of SMEs. In detail, propensities of Slovakian and Hungarian older SMEs (that have been operating more than 10 years) and microenterprises to apply online marketing channels are higher than Czech older SMEs and Czech microenterprises. Corresponding to social media usage, Czech and Slovakian SMEs and older enterprises do not differ. But Hungarian SMEs and older Hungarian firms are more prone to apply social media channels than Czech and Slovakian SMEs and older Czech and Slovakian enterprises. This paper is a unique study that makes comparison between some Central European countries? SMEs that are in the Visegrad Group regarding their usage of their online marketing and social media tools. Thus, this paper also fulfills some gap in the marketing literature.

    Opis:
    Research background: SMEs' concern for the digital literacy of their workforce, their interest in increasing digital literacy among employees, and securing their digital platforms, have been major issues in their digital transformation process. To reduce those obstacles, the dynamic capabilities of SMEs included in the Resource-based View (RBV) might be an effective solution since they help companies be more competitive and proactive against the threats they face in the digitalization process. Purpose of the article: This research aims to investigate whether SMEs' dynamic capabilities positively contribute to their digital transformation process. Methods: In line with the proposed relationships, this paper analyzes SMEs from Czechia by running Ordinal Logistic Regression analyses. The research sample is created by stratified random sampling and purposive sampling methods. The research data is collected via telephone surveys. Findings & value added: This research does not find a positive relationship between the dynamic capabilities of SMEs and the digital transformation process. While the results related to digital literacy are negatively associated with digital transformation, no significant relationship exists between security actions and the digital transformation of SMEs. This paper extends the scope of RBV on the digital transformation of SMEs by analyzing various dynamic capabilities of SMEs that have not been included in a sole study. Moreover, the perceptions of SME executives are considered by this research to provide effective solutions for the problems they face in digital transformation. Having a joint venture agreement with well-experienced IT companies, having a network with partner firms, looking for funding opportunities in the EU, participating in some practical training, and providing internships for bachelor students might enable SMEs to hit their targets in digital transformation.

    Opis:
    The usage of digital currencies and digital payments such as cryptocurrencies and card payments have been rapidly increased during Covid-19 pandemic because of providing contactless payments and keeping social distance between individuals. The number of contactless payments users was 440 million before the Covid-19 period, then the number of users increased rapidly and reached around 760 million in 2020 (Statista, 2021). In this regard, this paper investigates the perspectives of businesses regarding the usage of a local digital currency and its payment methods. Moreover, this paper investigates the incentives or supports that businesses might provide for their workers or customers to increase the usage of this currency. The researchers adopted a case study and performed structured interviews with the experts. Moreover, they also applied a non-probability sampling method, purposive sampling since this method is applied by researchers when aiming to explore a specific issue and intentionally selecting the extreme examples. In this regard, the researchers deliberately chose 25 businesses that operate in a disadvantaged region, namely, Cieszyn Silesia where a prospective local currency implementation can be applied by practitioners to overcome the negative economic outcomes of Covid-19. Since digital local currencies make significant contributions on economic conditions of disadvantaged regions, selecting respondents that have minimum 10 years experiences in businesses of a disadvantaged region makes this paper to fulfil the research aims. The researchers have also prior knowledge about this topic, and this is another reason of employing this sampling method. The researchers collected both qualitative and quantitative data and this paper is a kind of descriptive research. The researchers just indicated the result by accumulating the responses in Microsoft Excel and stating the responses that the survey participants answered for open-ended questions. According to the results, all businesses are prone to use digital currencies and are interested in accepting digital payments with these currencies. Regarding supports, businesses have willingness to provide bonuses and incentives to their employees, and customers to increase the usage of these currencies. These results might provide strong evidences to implement a digital local currency under the conditions of Covid-19 pandemic in a disadvantaged region.
    Wykorzystanie walut cyfrowych i płatności cyfrowych, takich jak kryptowaluty i płatności kartą, gwałtownie wzrosło podczas pandemii Covid-19 ze względu na zapewnianie płatności zbliżeniowych i utrzymywanie dystansu społecznego między jednostkami. Liczba użytkowników płatności zbliżeniowych wynosiła 440 mln przed okresem Covid-19, następnie liczba użytkowników gwałtownie wzrosła i osiągnęła około 760 mln w 2020 r. (Statista, 2021). W związku z tym niniejszy artykuł bada perspektywy firm dotyczące korzystania z lokalnej waluty cyfrowej i jej metod płatności. Co więcej, w niniejszym opracowaniu zbadano zachęty lub wsparcie, jakie firmy mogą zapewnić swoim pracownikom lub klientom, aby zwiększyć wykorzystanie tej waluty. Badacze przyjęli studium przypadku i przeprowadzili ustrukturyzowane wywiady z ekspertami. Co więcej, zastosowali również metodę próbkowania bez prawdopodobieństwa, próbkowania celowego, ponieważ metoda ta jest stosowana przez badaczy w celu zbadania konkretnego problemu i celowego wyboru skrajnych przykładów. W związku z tym badacze celowo wybrali 25 firm, które działają w mniej uprzywilejowanym regionie, a mianowicie na Śląsku Cieszyńskim, gdzie praktycy mogą zastosować potencjalne wdrożenie lokalnej waluty w celu przezwyciężenia negatywnych skutków gospodarczych Covid-19. Ponieważ cyfrowe waluty lokalne mają znaczący wpływ na warunki gospodarcze regionów znajdujących się w niekorzystnej sytuacji, wybór respondentów, którzy mają co najmniej 10-letnie doświadczenie w przedsiębiorstwach w regionach znajdujących się w niekorzystnej sytuacji, sprawia, że niniejszy dokument spełnia cele badawcze. Badacze posiadają również wcześniejszą wiedzę na ten temat i jest to kolejny powód stosowania tej metody próbkowania. Naukowcy zebrali dane zarówno jakościowe, jak i ilościowe, a niniejszy artykuł jest rodzajem badania opisowego. Naukowcy po prostu wskazali wynik, gromadząc odpowiedzi w programie Microsoft Excel i podając odpowiedzi, które uczestnicy ankiety odpowiedzieli na pytania otwarte. Zgodnie z wynikami, wszystkie firmy są skłonne do używania walut cyfrowych i są zainteresowane akceptacją płatności cyfrowych w tych walutach. Jeśli chodzi o wsparcie, firmy są gotowe zapewnić premie i zachęty swoim pracownikom, a klientom, aby zwiększyć wykorzystanie tych walut. Wyniki te mogą dostarczyć mocnych dowodów na wdrożenie cyfrowej waluty lokalnej w warunkach pandemii Covid-19 w regionie o niekorzystnym położeniu.
