Introduction of ESG Principles in the Insurance Market of Uzbekistan Hasan Umarov, Alisher Bakhadirov, Azamat Eshonkulov, Haneen Allataifeh E3s Web of Conferences, 2024 The article discusses the implementation of ESG principles in the insurance market of Uzbekistan, which is an important step towards the sustainable development of the country’s economy. In the context of global changes, the insurance sector of Uzbekistan is faced with the need to adapt to international standards of sustainable development, which include environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects. The authors analyze the current state of the insurance market in Uzbekistan, emphasizing its positive dynamics in recent years, but note that the implementation of ESG principles is at an early stage. Key barriers include a lack of experience and knowledge in the ESG field, limited financial resources of insurance companies and lack of regulatory support. The article proposes strategic steps to deepen the integration of ESG principles into insurance practice, including the development of environmental insurance, increasing the financial literacy of the population and improving management transparency in insurance companies. In conclusion, it is emphasized that the introduction of ESG principles can significantly increase the competitiveness of insurance companies, strengthen their market positions and attract new partners, as well as contribute to the implementation of the national strategy for the transition to a green economy.
How does the digital innovation process unfold in practice? A novel third-generation and empirical-based need–solution pairing model Haneen Allataifeh, Sedigheh Moghavvemi, Jahan Ara Peerally European Journal of Innovation Management, 2023 PurposeThere is a lack of empirical-based models derived from practice to explain the digital innovation process. The authors investigate how the digital innovation process unfolds in practice.Design/methodology/approachThe authors undertake an exploratory and phenomenological study of 21 Malaysian small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector.FindingsThe findings show that the delineation between digital innovation process and outcome is blurred in practice, due to the process' iterative nature. Under this process, customers' role has changed from being passive receivers of innovative products to active reviewers, testers, influential decision-makers, initiators and co-creators at different review points in the innovation process. Enterprises' role has expanded from being the initiator of the innovation process to being a cogitative actor by seeking and absorbing knowledge from customer reviews into the digital innovation process. Market analysis is often the initiator of the digital innovation process, and the findings shed light on the underlying causative mechanisms of the initiation stage, which are understudied and not well understood in the existing literature.Originality/valueThe study contributes to academic knowledge by answering scholars' call for developing third-generation practice-based innovation models, which accounts for enterprises' context-specificities and internal and external environments, and for exploring the suitability of the need–solution fit approach for the digital innovation process. Such models have only been conceptually advocated in the literature. The study also informs practitioners on the organizational and operational activities involved in managing and strategizing for the digital innovation process.
An Implementation of Internet of Things-based Live Temperature and Humidity Monitoring System Rubina Liyakat Khan, Deepa Priyanshu, Danish Ather, Haneen Allataifeh Proceedings of the 2022 11th International Conference on System Modeling and Advancement in Research Trends Smart 2022, 2022 Weather monitoring is an essential component of human existence; hence, collecting data about the temporal dynamics of weather shifts is of the utmost significance. The primary objective of this study is to create an embedded system to design a weather monitoring system that permits the monitoring of various weather parameters for academic research in a laboratory setting. A pair of sensors, including those for monitoring temperature and humidity, are included in such a system. The microcontroller gathers the data from the sensors, and then the microcontroller sends the data from the sensors into the google cloud application (google sheets) using Serial Communication. This module will store the data on the cloud, and information can also be received on mobile with the help of the GSM module if the values are outside the defined boundary range. The values obtained from the device are compared with those obtained from the device and checked with the data available at the national center for metrology to determine the degree to which the intended system accurately represents reality.
The individual dimension of digital innovation: The altered roles of innovation agents and market actors Haneen Allataifeh, Sedigheh Moghavvemi Sustainability Switzerland, 2021 Digital innovation entails the employment of new technologies to address business issues and to create practices that lead to the achievement of sustainability. It is observed that digital technology alters the individual dimension of the innovation process, allowing for a set of heterogenous actors to become active engagers in the process. A review of the previous research revealed a lack of focus on the roles these different actors play in the digital innovation process, as well as the mechanisms by which digital technology facilitates actor engagement, calling for research to shed some light on this topic. This phenomenological study undertakes an exploratory investigation of twenty-one Malaysian small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector, with the aim to demonstrate the importance of engaging market actors in each stage of the value co-creation process. Interviews with industry players show the shifted role of market actors in the innovation process—from product receivers to gatekeepers—at different stages of the innovation process. Market actors are extensively engaged in validating and evaluating the progress of ongoing digital innovation projects and, therefore, can modify their direction. Meanwhile, the role of innovation agents changes from an authoritative to reflective one. This study provides evidence that market actors are in a controlling position at certain points of the innovation process. As such, the view of the innovation process as being company-centric is challenged by the findings of this research. We provide new information regarding innovation practices, the roles of key actors, and their value in the digital context, which can serve as valuable knowledge for both academics and practitioners.
