Authors: Safdar Darakhshan , Qamar Urooj
Published: January 2024

Business incubation centers (BIs) have emerged as a popular tool for promoting entrepreneurship and economic development worldwide. The study contributes to literature by exploring the dynamics and significance of incubation in establishing businesses for nascent entrepreneurs. Specifically, this research delves into the experiences of graduated entrepreneurs from the National Incubation Center (NIC), a renowned public Business Incubation (BI) center located in Lahore, Pakistan and stands as a pivotal hub for innovation and entrepreneurial growth in the region. NIC provides a dynamic ecosystem where aspiring entrepreneurs and startups converge to receive comprehensive support, mentorship, and resources. The study aims to scrutinize the facilities offered by NIC and their impact on the personal and practical lives of the graduated incubates. Additionally, the research intends to identify the motivating factors for entrepreneurs to join Business Incubation Centers, which comprise networking, mentorship, investment, learning, and personal development. This study utilized a qualitative research design and data was collected through semi-structured interviews with 30 incubated entrepreneurs and analyzed thematically using the approach proposed by Braun and Clark (2006) and aided by NVivo (version 12 plus). The study uncovers several challenges faced by graduated incubates, including a lack of anticipated networking and mentorship, inadequate financial support, insufficient technical assistance, a scarcity of sponsorship initiatives for entrepreneurs, a shortage of legal assistance, and the impact of the pandemic on the incubation process. The study's findings may help policymakers to recognize the most effective institutions and initiatives for supporting entrepreneurial growth and expansion, both domestically and internationally. Furthermore, regulatory support for entrepreneurs can reinforce existing institutional frameworks.

Authors: Tabassum Bushra , UL Rahman Hafiz Mueed
Published: January 2024

Social identity is considered a dynamic and life-changing process. Individuals with physical disabilities learn and adapt to their environment. Their experiences help them cope with disability and in the development of their social identity. This research has been pursued with qualitative research design, and its underpinning lies in epistemological constructivism, where individuals give specific meaning to their experiences to understand social reality. Two theories have been used in the theoretical framework of this research: social identity theory and the looking-glass-self theory. This research strived to understand the phenomenon of social identity and how it affected individuals with physical disabilities in their lives.20 participants between the ages of 12 to 18 years were interviewed. The rationale for selecting this specific group was to understand the concept of self at the initial stages as it would grow as they grow up. This study was conducted at the Pakistan Society for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled (PSRD) in Lahore. The data was collected through in-depth interviews which were recorded and transcribed to gain insights. Three themes emerged from the interviews: experiences and views regarding one’s social identity, the role and influence of educational institutions and the environment of said institutions, and the role and influence of vocational skills in identity construction. The results of this research showed that the role of educational institutions, the environment of institutions, and the vocational training of the individuals played a substantial role in shaping their social identity. Respondents described how their self-actualization experiences, educational institutions, and vocational training helped them to construct identity.
The Nexus of Institutional Pillars and Service Innovation in Pakistan's ICT SME Sector: An Empirical SEM Analysis
Authors: Qamar Nida , Hadi Ali Fouzia
Published: January 2024

Service innovation is a critical driver of economic growth and competitiveness in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector, especially in developing countries like Pakistan. However, the full potential of the ICT sector innovation capacity remains unrealized due to the absence of adequate measures for evaluating and managing the factors that influence innovation, particularly institutional factors. SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) in Pakistan is empirically examined to determine the impact of institutional pillars on their ability to innovate service offerings. The study SEM to analyze data collected from 320 project managers of ICT SMEs in Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad. The findings reveal that normative, and cognitive institutions have a significant positive impact on service innovation while the regulative pillar has an insignificant impact on ICT SMEs in Pakistan. The comprehensive institutional framework is also found to be positively correlated with service innovation. The findings from this study have important implications for Pakistani policymakers and SMEs in the ICT sector. Policymakers should focus on creating a supportive institutional environment that facilitates service innovation. ICT SMEs should also be aware of the institutional factors that influence innovation and develop strategies to mitigate the negative impact of institutional constraints.

Published: January 2024

This study fills an urgent gap in need of a complete picture of the complicated relationships between organizational traits and Knowledge Management approaches amid Lahore's traditional financial institutions, Pakistan. This research relates to studying how risk management, innovation strategies or decision-making styles affect the knowledge environment within these firms. This paper adopts a positivist philosophy for research and is combined with the use of quantitative methods. Smart PLS software is used to perform Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) on the data obtained. Responses came from a sample of 380 bank managers, comprising the dataset used for analysis. These results suggest that there are some areas in which organizational interventions aimed at knowledge management could be especially effective (e.g., the strong and reliable positive relationships between insights into how organizations use information, competitive strategy, decision-making styles, innovativeness, and risk management). The following results, through verifying and elaborating upon these existing conceptual frameworks while at the same time providing practical applicability for participants in this specific field of study, also serve to add depth theory side of knowledge management. This will provide us with a better understanding of Knowledge Management processes in many kinds of organizations. Because this research makes use of cross-sectional data, the capacity to establish causal relationships between variables is limited. It is a key study for organizations, employees, executives, and policy makers.
Examining the Dynamics of Fashion Trends, Self-Brand Congruence, and Consumer Engagement, with a Mediating Lens on Brand Trust in Customer-Brand Relationships
Authors: Ali Sair Shrafat , Sohail Aamir , Rafiq Sadia
Published: January 2024

This study examines the intricate relationship between fashion trends, self-brand congruence, brand trust, and the customer-brand relationship within the context of Pakistani consumers' interactions with clothing brands. Furthermore, the study objectives are to examine the mediating role of brand trust between observed variables. The objectives include the clarification of the collective influence of these aspects, filling a theoretical gap within the framework of Pakistan, and providing marketers with practical insights. The study used a quantitative research approach, using a convenience sampling technique to choose a sample of 300 participants. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) is a statistical technique that is often used for the interpretation of data obtained from an online survey. The findings illustrate the interconnectedness of these dimensions by the observation of robust positive associations across fashion trends, self-brand congruency, brand trust, and customer engagement. Furthermore, the findings indicated that there is a significant mediating role of brand trust between Fashion Trends, Self-Brand Congruence, and Consumer Engagement, with a Mediating Lens on Brand Trust in Customer-Brand Relationships. This research has a distinctive quality since it specifically investigates these interactions within the Pakistani garment business, hence offering implications for consumer engagement initiatives and brand strategy. However, the use of cross-sectional data in this research imposes constraints on the capacity to establish causal relationships between the variables. This study is novel in the context of Pakistan as it is significant for customers, marketers, and policy makers for taking prudent decisions based on current research findings.

Este estudo avaliou de forma quimiométrica, a relação entre os parâmetros preditores da qualidade da água do Furo do rio Maguari, nas proximidades de sua foz, no entorno do Distrito de Icoaraci e em suas imediações, considerando o uso e ocupação do solo, além de comparar as concentrações observadas com os Valores Máximos Permitidos (VMP) pela Resolução CONAMA 357/2005. Parâmetros físico-químicos e químicos foram analisados em 42 amostras de águas superficiais, levando em consideração o ciclo de marés (enchente e vazante); todas as análises obedeceram aos procedimentos estabelecidos pelo Standard Methods for Examination of Water and Wastewater. Os parâmetros pH, OD, cor verdadeira, Al, Fe e Mn, apresentaram concentrações acima do VMP permitido pela Resolução Conama 357/2005; a Análise de Componentes Principais (PCA) destacou alguns grupos de parâmetros correlatos, como o grupo formado pelos íons cloreto, nitrato, sulfato e fosfato, na primeira componente (PC1), enquanto a segunda componente (PC2) destacou a relação existente entre as variáveis OD, ORP, cor verdadeira, Fe e Mn. A relação observada na PC1 sugere contribuição antrópica para a dinâmica dos íons no rio, tendo em vista o cenário antropogênico da região, permeado por indústrias, comércios (principalmente na área gastronômica), além de habitações, que lançam esgoto, principalmente doméstico, diretamente no rio, por outro lado, a partir do grupo formado na PC2, infere-se que esta associação está atrelada á contribuição natural para a ocorrência dos parâmetros, principalmente por fatores litológicos.

Assessment of the Relationship among Climate Change, Green Finance and Financial Stability: Evidence from Emerging and Developed Markets
Authors: Nabil Myvel
Published: January 2024

This study assesses the relationship among climate change, green finance, and financial stability annually from 2013 up to 2021 for 14 countries, focusing on emerging and developed markets. It first considers whether a country’s climate change impact financial stability, investigates whether green finance influences financial stability and how it affects climate change by using carbon dioxide emissions as proxy of climate change. Green finance has been measured by green of asset backed securities, green loans and bonds, while financial stability has been measured by Z-score. Using panel data, the findings indicate that there is a significantly negative effect of CO2 emissions on financial stability, but positive effects of green finance on financial stability in these markets, most notably through green loans. Also, this paper examines the relationship between green finance and climate change by using Kao Residual Cointegration test of countries. In the long run, green finance negatively affects carbon dioxide emissions. Furthermore, the empirical results of the robustness test of GMM are highly consistent with the main test. This study may be extended by conducting Further research to focus on the effect of CO2 emissions on financial markets with the role of financial deepening for countries.

A total of 179 sorghum cultivars planted in replicated plots in Isabela, Puerto Rico, were evaluated for five agronomically important traits grain yield, seed weight, panicle height, panicle length, and flowering time. This study identified the top cultivars in each trait through statistical analysis. In a previous study, the reaction of the same cultivars to anthracnose, rust, grain mold, and germination rates was determined. Combining the five traits in this study and the previous four measured traits, a correlation analysis among the nine traits was conducted. The results revealed that there are significant correlations between a few paired traits. Correlations such as panicle height and rust infection (Spearman’s ρ= 0.36), panicle height and grain mold infection (Spearman’s ρ= -0.30), germination rate and panicle height (Pearson’s r= 0.31), germination rate and panicle length (Pearson’s r= 0.27), panicle length and panicle height (Pearson’s r= 0.52), flowering time and panicle height (Pearson’s r= 0.65), and flowering time and panicle length (Pearson’s r= 0.50) were found.
