The research group focuses on firm-customer value co-creation in a digitally enabled environment. The research group focuses on the impact of digital technologies in the interaction of the firm and customers and looks at how value and customer insight can be generated and exploited for marketing purposes.
The aim of the project is to gain an in-depth understanding of how firms employ digital data to innovate their production process (increasing efficiencies in the use of natural resources) and how cleaner production innovation influence cleaner value proposition.
We used mixed method – dual approach consisting of two distinct and interactive project phases, a qualitative and a quantitative one. The qualitative phase is prioritized which means that the quantitative phase is built based on the qualitative results.
The findings of this research show an empirical framework of six agri-food firms’ digital data utilization behaviors: the supervisor, the passive supervisor, the developer, the passive developer, the pathfinder and the conjunction behaviour. These digital data utilization behaviors vary according to a combination of data sources, such as internal data related to inside phenomenon measures (e.g. data generated by sensors installed in the production plan) or external data (e.g., market trends, overall sector sales), and innovation purposes.
