The Covid-19 pandemic has also affected the economy, education and other sectors such as the social and religious fields. Due to restrictions on attending worship activities, the idea emerged to utilize facilities that were believed to assist worship activities. One of facilities contained in existing technology to assist houses of worship is online. The influence of technology during the pandemic on the social and religious sectors is considered to have great benefits. As an example of the impact that occurred in the Church of St. Theresia of the Bongsari Parish.When mid-July 2020, after the government issued a New Normal policy, the Parish began to open mass activities by offline. The system used at that time included people registering through a collective list from the head of section where parishioners domicile nearby. However, the registration system is still considered ineffective, so the registration system is then developed using the Google Form facility. Although the offline mass registration system has undergone many developments, it still has many shortcomings. Therefore, the responsive web-based offline mass registration application is expected to be able to help the problems experienced by the church during the mass registration flow as well as the development of a dashboard as a means to be able to process data easily and efficiently for church administration officers. Application development is carried out using the ADDIE method, namely Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. In addition, the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method is also used to support the application development process.In this study, a survey with 60 respondents was carried out with the community, and from the test results it can be concluded that the usefulness of the offline mass registration application, as well as device support and the ease and pleasure of using this application have a correlation with the intention to use a website-based offline mass registration application. ","PeriodicalId":36187,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Business Science and Technology","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82264979","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}

The current study set out to explore whether travellers perceive food as a travel attraction that motivates them to travel to a destination and whether food can provide a memorable experience to such travellers and how well destination management organizations promote food tourism through digital media in a setting where many travellers search for information online. The study included a preliminary study in which the opinions of travellers were identified through a content analysis of experiences shared on online travel review sites and social media. Thestudy conducted a qualitative research approach where interviews were conducted to gain further insights into travellers’ food experiences. Further, the effectiveness of promoting food tourism through digital media by destination management organizations was analyzed through a content analysis of textual and visual content on websites. The findings of the study indicate that travellers consider food as a major motive to travel, as an experience booster, a novel and exciting experience, an experience beyond just eating, an aid to learning about locals’ lifestyle, an experience worth recreating and an experience that results in a change in lifestyle becoming a peak touristic experience. It was apparent that Local Destination Management Organizations do not effectively communicate these factors about food experiences through their digital platforms. This study is significant in a theoretical aspect as it presents seven characteristics of food experiences concerning the conceptual model of tourist experience and for applying this model to the digital context taking the destination management organization’s point of view. It is also significant in a practical aspect as it shows the potential of food to be a main attraction for Sri Lanka Tourism and portrays space for improvement in marketing such experiences,especially in digital media.","PeriodicalId":36187,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Business Science and Technology","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91086150","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}

The commendable performance of the material sector equity index during Covid-19 period motivates this study to investigate whether the profitability of the sector backs the observed performance in the equity index. For this purpose, this study performs both parametric and non-parametric comparison tests on quarterly data gathered using annual reports from 2018Q1 to 2021Q1. Further, this study employs panel regression models to identify whether the differential effect of Covid-19 on profitability is immune to other controlling effects. Additionally, this study investigates the reasons behind the profitability patterns by analyzing annual reports' content. The results of this study confirm that during the first quarter of the year 2021, the ROA and ROE are greater than the per Covid period ROA and ROE. The major external reason for the higher profitability is the relaxed government policies implemented during the Covid-19 period. Accordingly, the findings of this study imply that supportive government policies enhance the performance of firms during crisis periods.","PeriodicalId":36187,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Business Science and Technology","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89361325","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}
