Drawing upon data collected from 425 valid survey responses, this study affirms the effectiveness of this combined model in predicting users' intentions to persist in using social media and emphasizes the central importance of the Theory of Planned Behavior constructs. The theory of Planned Behavior emerges as the primary driver shaping users' intention for continued social media use, surpassing the significance of the Theory of Consumption Values and Expectation-Confirmation Theory constructs. Furthermore, this study enriches our comprehension of the profound importance of all types of consumption values in the social media context, unveiling a hierarchy of these values and their varying impact on users' intentions to maintain their social media engagement. By embracing users' perspectives across a diverse array of social media platforms, this research enhances the generalizability and applicability of its findings, ensuring their relevance in diverse social media contexts. Additionally, the study delves into the moderating role of social media experience, unveiling intriguing dynamics in user behavior and elucidating the distinctions between experienced and less experienced users in their social media usage patterns. The paper explores the theoretical, methodological, practical, and social implications of these findings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100376,"journal":{"name":"Digital Business","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100070"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666954423000182/pdfft?md5=4a610162673b58c32a4d115f6e1cf037&pid=1-s2.0-S2666954423000182-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138548771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, a significant void exists in our understanding of the dynamics of consumer engagement with content creators producing ChatGPT-related content. Therefore, the present study aims to delineate how ChatGPT-related content garners consumer engagement on YouTube. Data from 100 YouTube videos amassing an aggregate of 65 million views on ChatGPT were extracted using three application programming interfaces (APIs), namely, VidIQ, Tubebuddy, and SocialBlade. We subsequently contrasted this dataset with data from 200 other videos produced by the same creators. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, multigroup SEM, and comparative line graphs. Employing the Uses and Gratifications (U&G) theoretical framework, our results indicate that innovative content such as ChatGPT-related videos garners more engagement than other content types from the same YouTube channels. Intriguingly, this study finds that ChatGPT-focused content exhibited diminished sensitivity to channel subscriber counts, with channels having fewer subscribers achieving higher viewership numbers. Furthermore, ChatGPT-related content induced a surge in new subscribers to the channel compared to the other content types. The present study pioneers the investigation of audience engagement with ChatGPT-related content by juxtaposing it with other content from the same YouTube channels. We also explicate the relationship between content sensitivity and extant subscriber counts. The present study provides vital insights and implications for a diverse audience, including content creators, developers of AI tools, advertisers, and content publishers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100376,"journal":{"name":"Digital Business","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100071"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666954423000194/pdfft?md5=5e4f60eb34e76604d16b06f614999f13&pid=1-s2.0-S2666954423000194-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138472376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, sub-Saharan Africa has experienced a particularly high rate of failure for digital start-ups during early-stage development. Between 2010 and 2018, an average of 54.20% of digital start-ups failed on the continent. Globally, the survival rate during early-stage development is only around 10% to 20%, which means that roughly 80% of digital start-ups fail during market entry. To address this issue, it's critical to investigate the factors that contribute to the few successes, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. This study focuses on the behaviour of Nigerian founders whose digital start-ups survived during market entry. The goal is to explore how these founders overcame the various complexities and uncertainties that come with entrepreneurial activities in the Nigerian market.

FinTech developments have made gathering and sharing information easier, changed how funds are mobilized and allocated, and increased capital-raising activities. This paper conducts a systematic literature review on FinTech and SME financing for the period 2008–2022. So far there are unstructured and separate publications on this topic. Therefore, there is a need to consolidate the empirical research and their findings on the effectiveness of FinTech in meeting SMEs' financing needs. The bibliometric findings show that few studies on FinTech and SME financing are empirical in nature. These empirical studies surged a decade later after FinTech 3.0 started in 2008, with the majority of them using quantitative methods based on data from surveys and FinTech platforms. Furthermore, emerging alternative digital financing to SMEs have attracted more empirical studies than those on FinTech and bank lending to SMEs. In terms of publications, China is dominating, followed by the United States. The content analysis shows that FinTech has increased the ability of financial and non-financial institutions to collect and process accurate information about SMEs, thus reducing information asymmetry and transaction costs. FinTech has also increased the speed and quality of the lending cycle, from establishing an SME pipeline, collecting and processing information, to loan screening, monitoring and repayment. Finally, the paper presents research gaps and areas for future studies, challenges and policy recommendations on this novel subject.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100376,"journal":{"name":"Digital Business","volume":"3 2","pages":"Article 100067"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49713468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
