Due to the rapid changes and developments caused by technology in the digital age and the growing importance of achieving sustainability for the survival of businesses, the need to create the capabilities needed to innovate in the business model of organizations has become inevitable. This research is trying to provide a model for business model innovation with the aim of sustainability by considering the external factor of digitalization (digital transformation) and the internal factor of dynamic capabilities. The method of this research is mixed so that in the first stage the qualitative method of Meta-Synthesis is used and in the second stage the quantitative method of Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) is used. In this research, based on the systematic review of previous researches in scientific databases, 402 related articles were identified and then 46 final articles were selected during the screening process. Based on the thematic analysis, a total of 4 main categories and 14 factors were extracted. In the second stage of the research, an interpretive structural model (ISM) is developed to show the inter‐relationship of different factors and their levels of importance in the food industry.   The 8-level hierarchy model of factors influencing the sustainable business model innovation in the digital age with a dynamic capabilities approach was proposed. Results show that a new component called network value has been added to the traditional business model components. Furthermore, the MICMAC approach has been used to categorise factors according to their driving power and dependence. finally, digital technologies and Sensing were found to be the factors with the highest independence and the highest driving power, and “Economic Sustainability” was identified as the factor with the highest dependence and the least driving power

Countries have made significant investments in the last decade to reach the international market of renewable energy. Studies potentially have indicated a beneficial renewable energy market. Accordingly, firms must alter their business model to enter the global market. This research aims to discover strategic factors in international marketing management for new renewable energy products. The community of this research includes experienced managers and experts in the field of renewable wind energy. The analysis is applied in terms of purpose and is of the qualitative-quantitative method. In this study, structural equation modeling and Smart PLS software have been utilized for data analysis. The results indicate that 11 strategic factors could influence the international marketing management for new wind renewable energy products, and their effect is at a significant level. Finally, the research model was analyzed using fuzzy inference system (FIS) and Matlab software.

The Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) with perishability is an active research topic. The Agri-fresh Food Supply Chain (AFSC) is a relevant topic to SCND and this study aims to model a new AFSC for a real-world case study. Regarding the traditional AFSC, the geographically dispersed small farmers transport their product individually to market for selling. This leads to a higher transportation cost, which is the major cause of farmers’ low profitability. This paper formulates a traditional product movement model to represent the existing AFSC. The concept of sharing economic approach is employed by the aggregate and collaborative transportation of products to minimize transportation inefficiency. This paper proposes an aggregate product movement with the vehicle routing model to re-design an AFSC for a case study in Iran based on the data of ETKA Company-the largest domestic agri-fresh food supply chain. A four-echelon, multi-period, Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) approach for the proposed location-inventory-routing model is formulated for perishable products via considering the clustering of farmers to minimize the total distribution cost.

The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry rely heavily on Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM is the collection of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), interacting policies, and procedures. BIM is a tool for managing digital project data during the life cycle of a building. Despite the many benefits and features of BIM, the Malaysian construction industry's proliferation is confronted with adoption issues. Therefore, this research study intends to find the effect of BIM adoption factors in Malaysian AEC. Quantitative data collection from construction firms is gathered. The proposed model's theoretical foundations are based on Technology, Organization Environment framework. The model is tested and validated with the Smart PLS tool. The study's findings indicate that Perceived benefits, Organizational Capabilities, and Trialability are drivers of BIM adoption. Perceived cost and Insecurity are the barriers to BIM adoption. Perceived ease of use and compatibility does not affect BIM adoption. Finally, this study performs Importance Performance Map Analysis to provide recommendations to AEC stakeholders to address the BIM adoption issues for enhancing its diffusion in Malaysia.
