Abstract

This study empirically examines the impact of intellectual capital on the frontiers of e-business entrepreneurial orientation and how intellectual capital and e-business entrepreneurial orientation contribute to competitive agility. A questionnaire was used for data collection from telecommunication companies and obtained from a sample of 212 participants. Data analysis was conducted using a structural equation modeling approach using smart PLS. The results show the positive impact of human capital, structural capital, and relational capital on e-business entrepreneurial orientation. The findings also indicate a direct positive impact of intellectual capital and e-business entrepreneurial orientation on competitive agility. An understanding of the impact of intellectual capital, e-business entrepreneurial orientation dimensions, and their relationship with competitive agility will provide organizations with a better background and knowledge on how to foster and manage these capabilities.
