It aims to know whether, in emerging African countries, the economic value of music streaming can significantly improve the world’s music market revenue growth. Hence, the study uses two marketing theories, product and marketing concepts, to conceptualize a hypothesized model based on survey data from Nigeria. Specifically, it achieves its objective by analyzing the factors that correlate with premium music streaming using the Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). Our findings suggest that music sampling and consumer attitude are crucial for determining purchase intention and premium streaming. Additionally, we find that stringent anti-piracy measures and low streaming costs can influence optimal music purchase intention and premium music streaming behavior. Overall, while the study fosters an understanding of the economic potential of music streaming in emerging African markets, its evidence supports the literature with valuable insights for decision-makers.","PeriodicalId":46981,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Business","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136347606","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}

Many studies have examined the entrepreneurial intentions of university students in different countries. However, only a few studies have investigated the differences in such intentions between students in developed and developing countries, especially African countries. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine whether African university economics students are interested in becoming entrepreneurs compared to their counterparts from developed countries in the EU. We compared students’ intentions to become entrepreneurs using a large quantitative dataset obtained from university students from the 2018 GUESSS international survey. Testing four hypotheses, we found a statistically significant difference in entrepreneurial intentions between EU and African students. In general, we can say that African students have a more positive attitude toward their own entrepreneurship than their fellow EU students.","PeriodicalId":46981,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Business","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135634773","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}

Quantitative research was used, and the study is descriptive and explanatory in nature. Family-owned small enterprises based in the Gauteng province of South Africa were the population of this study. The unit of analysis was thus the owners/founders and managers of the enterprises. A total of 257 valid questionnaires were returned from the sampled 384 family-owned small businesses, yielding a response rate of 66%. The results showed that family-owned small enterprises appreciate the importance of succession planning, however, they do not regard it as an urgent undertaking. They believe that succession planning is only about successor selection. The results also divulged that the lack of written succession plans is influenced by several reasons, namely, the entrepreneur never thought of succession planning, family members are not interested in taking over the business, the business is still small, and the children are still young. In response to the findings, the research proposes a successful succession planning framework and its implications to assist small family-owned enterprises to plan for succession.KEYWORDS: Family enterprisessuccession planningfamily-owned businessessuccession frameworkownership transfer Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":46981,"journal":{"name":"Journal of African Business","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136313128","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}
