Exploring knowledge management in metaverse-driven business model innovation: empirical evidence from knowledge-intensive firms
By Zeng, Bing; Habib, Muhammad Danish; Albishri, Norah; Arrigo, Elisa; Nespoli, Pantaleone ; et al.
Journal of Knowledge Management; Kempston Vol. 29, Iss. 1, (2025): 3341-3359. DOI:10.1108/JKM-03-2025-0299


Abstract :The rapid adoption of the metaverse is reshaping business landscapes, presenting new opportunities for business transformation. Digital transformation is a transformative process that critically examines and leverages the adoption of digital technologies to redesign business models and operations. Despite growing interest, there is limited research on how metaverse adoption influences, absorptive capacity, business model innovation and business digital transformation. To fill this gap, this study aims to examine the relationship between metaverse adoption, absorptive capacity, business model innovation and business digital transformation.
Mapping the Relationship Between Critical Thinking and Design Thinking
By Ericson, Jonathan D.
Journal of the Knowledge Economy; New York Vol. 13, Iss. 1, (Mar 2022): 406-429. DOI:10.1007/s13132-021-00733-w


Abstract :Critical thinking has been a longstanding goal of education, while design thinking has gradually emerged as a popular method for supporting entrepreneurship, innovation, and problem solving in modern business. While some scholars have posited that design thinking may support critical thinking, empirical research examining the relationship between these two modes of thinking is lacking because their shared conceptual structure has not been articulated in detail and because they have remained siloed in practice. This essay maps eleven essential components of critical thinking to a variety of methods drawn from three popular design thinking frameworks. The mapping reveals that these seemingly unrelated modes of thinking share common features but also differ in important respects. A detailed comparison of the two modes of thinking suggests that design thinking methods have the potential to support and augment traditional critical thinking practices, and that design thinking frameworks could be modified to more explicitly incorporate critical thinking. The article concludes with a discussion of implications for the knowledge economy, and a research agenda for researchers, educators, and practitioners.
Designing a Digital Business Model for Internal Audit Functions: A Framework and Case Study from the Financial Sector
By Halar Petra. 
Business Systems Research; Zagreb Vol. 16, Iss. 2, (Dec 2025): 112-144. DOI:10.2478/bsrj-2025-0021


Abstract :The internal audit function is a strategic infrastructural function of a company, organisation, or institution. Its digital transformation process must align with the organisation-wide digital business transformation process. The main determinants distinguishing successful from unsuccessful companies and internal audit functions are their overall business models. The main aim of this paper is to propose and design a unique digital business model canvas for the internal audit function and test its usefulness in practice. It also aims to investigate the current state and characteristics of internal audit functions’ business models and their innovations in the financial sector.
