User entrepreneurs rely on regular consumers when starting their business, for example, when raising creative and financial support. This research examines regular consumers’ opinions with regard to the future business performance of green vs. non-green user entrepreneurs. We build on previous consumer behavior research on consumers’ performance perceptions. Specifically, consumers perceive products that use green, environmentally friendly technologies as having inferior performance compared to products that use traditional technologies. We investigate whether this so called “sustainability liability” effect can also be found in consumers’ perceptions of green user entrepreneurs’ performance. We ran an online scenario experiment with regular consumers who assessed the business performance of several (green vs. non-green) user entrepreneurs. Results reveal a “sustainability asset” effect for perceptions of green user entrepreneurs, such that consumers with strong environmental values perceived the business performance of green user entrepreneurs as superior compared to non-green user entrepreneurs. Consumers with weak environmental values perceived green and non-green entrepreneurs as equally performant. We discuss possible explanations of our findings. Furthermore, we propose potential consequences of our results both for consumers’ intentions to support user entrepreneurs as well as for user entrepreneurs’ motivation to engage in green innovations.

Broccoli is one of the prospective horticultural products to be developed, beside it has a good nutrition for health, broccoli also hasan interesting physical form. Broccoli is generally preferred by consumers of modern market, sold as fresh with adjust table size with consumer demand. On the other hand, broccoli has aperishable nature, with an unique morphological characteristics. Modern market demand requires a certainspec for broccoli, it cause farmers had tochange the way they do in their  business, so that their products are well received by the modern market. There fore, this study aims to determine the entrepreneurial orientation offarmersso it canmeet the demand ofbroccolito themodernmarket. Broccoli’s Farmer has a high entrepreneurial spirit, as seen from the orientation of farmers in view the future. Farmers see the modern market as an alternative market with a huge potential market in the future, so that the farmers do a variety of creative effort to make their business performance more efficiently so it can serve the  modern market better.

This chapter is the sketch of a possible pattern of the future world in which any kind of business will be developed in a completely new human, technological, agricultural, and commercial context, heavily and quickly changed from the one we live in now. The first objective of this chapter is to scout for the mega-technology trends that will reshape completely the future business and jobs, focusing on the agrifood industry. The second objective is to tackle the main challenges to patent inventions in terms of costs and timing in Romania, relative to other countries, and raise pragmatic recommendations. The third objective is to describe the institutional innovation called INACO (the Initiative for Competitiveness), a think-tank dedicated to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the future economy and how can a country such as Romania stay competitive in a more and more competitive world.

Cloud-based web applications are proliferating fast. Owing to the elastic capacity and diverse pricing schemes, cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offers great opportunity for web application providers to optimize resource cost. However, such optimization activities are confronting the challenges posed by the uncertainty of future demand and the increasing reservation contracts. This work investigates the problem of how to minimize IaaS rental cost associated with hosting web applications, while meeting the demand in the future business cycle. First, an integer liner program model is developed to optimize reservation-contract procurement, in which reserved and on-demand resources are planned for multiple provisioning stages as well as a long-term plan, e.g., twelve stages in an annual plan. Then, a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) based algorithm is designed to predict the workload in the future business cycle. In addition, the approaches for determining virtual instance capacity and the baseline workload of planning time slot are also presented. Finally, the experimental prediction results show the LSTM-based algorithm gains an advantage over several popular models, such as the Holter–Winters, the Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA), and the Support Vector Regression (SVR). The simulations of resource planning show that the provisioning scheme based on our reservation-optimization model obtains significant cost savings than other typical provisioning schemes, while satisfying the demands.

Purpose of the study: The study aims to determine the effect of variable mediation in this case the Supply Chain Strategic (SCS), on the influence of Knowledge Management (KM) on Business Performance (BP). Methodology: The method used in this research is using quantitative descriptive studies using a simple dissertation approach and linear regression analysis with SPSS and Amos version 23, starting from the measurement of Confirmatory. Main Findings: The main finding of this study is that the mediation variable, in this case, the Supply Chain Strategy (SCS) can mediate the effect of Knowledge Management on Business Performance carried out in the Small and Medium Enterprises (UKM) sector in Java Island, Indonesia in 2019. Applications of this study: The implications of this study indicate that SCS has an important role in the development of future business, especially in Small and Micro Enterprises (SMEs).
