Item type:Publication, Academic performance of micro-entrepreneurs in business training programs: evidence from the application of an i4.0 educational system during the COVID-19 pandemic(Belgrade University, 2021-01-01)There is limited information on the academic performance obtained by teaching through an i4.0 educational system. Therefore, this article aims to close the gap by presenting the existing literature and the quantitative results obtained from the evaluations and surveys made to micro-entrepreneurs with little knowledge of digital technologies, and in many cases with different levels of education, who have been trained during the COVID-19 pandemic, between August and December 2020. The business training program used an i4.0 educational system based on IoT, the cloud, social networks and Web services. The results showed that the participants achieved a satisfactory academic performance and met the objectives of the training program in business-related topics. Likewise, the results established that the academic performance of the student in a business training program through an i4.0 system is not directly related to the student's previous educational level. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Business school model of social responsibility and sustainability and its impact on small- and mid-sized enterprises(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2022-03-28)Purpose This study aims to define a business school model of social responsibility (SR) and sustainability and describe how the implementation of this model impacts on small- and mid-sized enterprises (SME) and stakeholders in the chain. Design/methodology/approach The model was built based on a conceptual analysis about the literary and documentary review in recognized databases of scientific publications and models of SR, accreditations and impact and quality report systems of business schools. The implementation of the model was based on a project that involved Peruvian SME. Data were collected through surveys administered to the study population. The results were confirmed through in-depth interviews. Analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive-analytical methods were used to present the SR model. Findings This model focused on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), partnerships and solved relevant social and economic problems. It also allowed the growth of the micro entrepreneur, the family, the company, the society and other stakeholders in the chain. Research limitations/implications The model was validated in one business school but generated more results than the expected. It is recommended to replicate it in other organizations. It has been developed in pandemic and post-pandemic situations. Practical implications The model was based on many impact models that considered the SDGs and relevant alliance generation that involved stakeholders in the chain. It also contributed to the development of entrepreneurs and the society. Social implications The model benefited people, society and companies. The program aimed to train and formalize entrepreneurs and generate social and economic development. Originality/value This study allowed moving from theory to practice in topics of SR and sustainability. The main original aspect is that the model was based on the Unión de Responsabilidad Social Universitaria Latino Americana model; the Business Graduates Association, European Quality Improvement System, Business school Impact System, Global Reporting Initiative standards, the Responsible Business Conduct and the SDGs. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Knowledge Transfer in Peru Microentrepreneurs: The Effects on Personal and Business Improvement(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2023-10-18)Purpose This study aims to analyze the effects of microentrepreneurs’ knowledge transfer (KT) on personal improvement (PI) and business improvement (BI). Design/methodology/approach The study was developed in two stages: a literature review based on KT and the learning process in microenterprises to have managerial competence and PI and BI to acquire the managerial competence that entrepreneurs need. The second stage was constructing a structural model based on 107 questionnaires and bootstrapping of 5,000 replications of microentrepreneurs who went through a training program (quantitative) and a focus group (qualitative). This study had a mixed approach, exploratory scope and experimental design. Findings The research showed real evidence about the performance level of microentrepreneurs when they passed through the process of KT and its impact on PI and BI. This research considers their managerial competencies, and the findings show a relationship between the theory of individual and organizational learning. Research limitations/implications This study considered Peruvian microentrepreneurs who participated in a virtual training program that included several courses related to their current environments and topics of interest. The analyzed period covered the years affected by COVID-19. Practical implications The model reveals that KT is relevant to PI and BI. Performance was measured regarding growth, income, innovation, productivity and responsibility before and after the program. Social implications This research analyzed the need for training microentrepreneurs for personal and private reasons under a COVID-19 scenario to foster their businesses and assume financial responsibilities. This study considered Peru’s reality, a country in which 94.9% of companies are microenterprises. The study revealed that microentrepreneurs improved their personal and professional lives and addressed relevant social problems that affect their environments because of the KT effects. Originality/value This study bridges the gap in the literature on how the theory of KT can be applied to entrepreneurs. This study revealed significant findings in terms of PI and BIs. The impact of KT indicates the relevance of managerial competencies related to the performance level obtained in terms of growth, income, innovation, productivity and responsibility. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Finance and women's well-being: a literature review(Cogent OA, 2025-01-01)The number of studies on finance, well-being, and women has increased in recent years. At a practical level, organizations seek to develop financial products for women. However, no study consolidates these findings for a better understanding of the theoretical and practical implications. This study offers a rigorous literature review in two stages. The first one is quantitative, through a bibliometric analysis on the relevant scientific-based literature validated by researchers such as Web of Science, Scopus and Dimensions, and supported on Bibliometrix. The second stage is qualitative, conducted through an interpretivist approach and that involved a description of terms, construction of content maps and relationships between terms, divergent interpretations and coding that led to a final concept map presentation. The main findings revolve around the great limitation that women still have to access financial literacy, particularly in emerging countries. It is suggested to create mechanisms and policies that reduce the gaps between men and women and allow the latter to better manage their finances for greater independence. Furthermore, these must be aimed at generating greater well-being that goes beyond the financial and that is not only carried out for particular interests.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Clustering green finance, fintech, and digital technologies for sustainable operations(Springer Nature, 2026-12-01)The of this study is to provide a more comprehensive and updated analysis of how green finance enabled by financial technology (Fintech) and digital innovation, contributes to sustainability in economic and operational systems. In particular, the study examines how digital technologies support sustainable operations by facilitating inclusion, improving resource allocation, and accelerating structural change towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Using a mixed-methods approach that combines bibliometric analysis with a systematic literature review. A comprehensive analysis of 67 articles published between 2022 and 2025 was conducted. The findings identify four dominant research clusters in which digital technologies, innovation, regulation and international cooperation play a prominent role as drivers of structural change. Fintech and institutionality (cluster 1), is a driver of sustainable banking performance (cluster 2), there are dynamics of natural resources and a Fintech-mediated energy transition (cluster 3), and Fintech and Start-ups collaboration is a driver of social sustainability (cluster 4). The report also reveals significant findings between developed and developing countries. This study adopts a mixed method combining bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review. The results further reveal notable differences between developed and developing countries. China leads with 1,140 total citations and an average of 43.8 per article, while Australia has the highest average impact of 56.6. Green finance and Fintech have been identified as pivotal in promoting sustainability, particularly in developing countries where environmental and social challenges are most acute. Financial technology not only optimises financial processes, but also drives the democratisation of financial services and green investment, playing a key role in the transition to a resilient and sustainable economy. The combination of digital and sustainable solutions is essential to achieving development goals. However, it is vital that this initiative be implemented in conjunction with responsible management of natural resources, effective public policies, and the presence of skilled human capital.Scopus© Citations 1 1
