Factors Drive Enterprise Digital Innovation
The concept of digital innovation was first introduced by Youngjin Yoo in 2010, who thought digital innovation is an innovative process of combining digital and physical components to produce new products, services, and business models. Subsequently, it aroused widespread concern in academic circles. In terms of the connotation and measurement of digital innovation, some studies based on the consequential theory, proposed that digital innovation refers to the innovative results produced by applying digital technology in the innovation process, including the use of digital technology to bring new products, improving production processes, changing organizational models, creating and changing business models, etc. Based on process theory, some scholars proposed that digital innovation is the combination of digital technologies such as information, computing, communication, and connection used in the innovation process. There are also studies based on the theory of synthesis, pointing out that digital innovation should combine the application of digital technology and the results, including both the efficiency in innovation process and the generation of innovation results.

Advanced Air Mobility Standards in Medical Drone Delivery
There are three application areas that have been accelerating the demand for cargo drones: (1) deliveries to areas with limited accessibility, such as oil rigs, ships, remote communities, islands, mountainous regions, disaster areas, and communities with poor roads; (2) rapid delivery of emergency medical items, such as antidotes, resuscitation equipment, injections, bandages, blood, and human transplant organs; and (3) same-day or same-hour delivery of packages and food in congested urban environments. All three applications can involve both middle-mile (between hubs) and last-mile (hub to home) deliveries. The focus of this research is on opportunities to increase the speed and reduce the risk of middle-mile delivery of pharmaceuticals by using emerging cargo drone technologies.

Financial Interdependence: A Social Perspective
Financial interdependence refers to the practice of sharing money as an expression of mutuality. Forms of financial interdependence are often rooted in cultural norms and values and may be carried out as a commitment to the well-being of the family through financial transfers, practiced as informal savings groups, or even established as legally constructed agreements. Financial interdependence can result in either beneficial or harmful outcomes, depending upon the nature of the relationships and the available resources. As a social and cultural concept, it has been generally neglected in the discourse on financial independence, yet it has important implications for society as a basis for collective prosperity.

Smart Cities and Citizen Adoption
Due to the irruption of new technologies in cities such as mobile applications, geographic information systems, internet of things (IoT), Big Data, or artificial intelligence (AI), new approaches to citizen management are being developed. The primary goal is to adapt citizen services to this evolving technological environment, thereby enhancing the overall urban experience. These new services can enable city governments and businesses to offer their citizens a truly immersive experience that facilitates their day-to-day lives and ultimately improves their standard of living. In this arena, it is important to emphasize that all investments in infrastructure and technological developments in Smart Cities will be wasted if the citizens for whom they have been created eventually do not use them for whatever reason. To avoid these kinds of problems, the citizens’ level of adaptation to the technologies should be evaluated. However, although much has been studied about new technological developments, studies to validate the actual impact and user acceptance of these technological models are much more limited.

Low-Carbon Logistics Capability
It is crucial to figure out how to achieve sustainable economic growth while fostering the growth of the logistics sector and the economy by expanding low-carbon logistics capability. The term "low-carbon logistics capacity" refers to a logistics operation's capacity to achieve sustainable development in the context of the needs of the low-carbon economy. Research and development capacity, economic development, energy consumption, and other considerations, have an impact on low-carbon logistics capability. Enhancing low-carbon logistics capability does not imply that the logistics sector should cut energy use and pursue a zealous reduction in carbon emissions; rather, it aims to improve the sector's energy use efficiency.

CSR Practices on Customer Value Co-Creation and Perception
The rapid development of digitalization has introduced greater variability and trust-related risks to the banking industry. Enhancing customers’ perception of value co-creation with banks is a critical issue that requires attention.
