Jaundibināma uzņēmuma SIA "SM Viesu Nami" attīstības plāna izstrāde.
2016
Bakalaura darba izstrādes laikā autors dibina savu uzņēmumu SIA „SM Viesu Nami” un izstrādā uzņēmuma attīstības plānu, kā arī, lai nodrošinātu sekmīgu uzņēmējdarbību, tiek veikta konkrētās nozares uzņēmējdarbības vides analīze Latvijā. Šāda uzņēmuma dibināšanas ideja radās autora īpašumā esošas, bet vēl neizmantotas zemes efektīvai pielietošanai, kura atrodas ekskluzīvā un tūristiem pieprasītā Slīteres Nacionālā parka teritorijā vien metrus no jūras. Tā kā uzņēmuma atrašanās vieta būtu šī parka teritorijā gleznainā un klusā vietā, tad arī tūristiem piedāvājums liksies īpaši pievilcīgs. Lielākā problēma ar ko saskārās autors, ir spēja padarīt piedāvājumu pievilcīgu arī ziemas periodā. Bakala…

Šķeltnieciskās inovācijas analīze. Savstarpējo aizdevumu platformu nozare Latvijā.
2018
Pēdējos gados šķeltnieciskās inovācijas jēdziens tiek izmantots arvien biežāk, taču tas tiek pārāk vispārināts un tā pamatprincipi asociēti ar nepareiziem piemēriem. Tāpēc maģistra darbs “Šķeltnieciskās inovācijas analīze. Savstarpējo aizdevumu platformas nozare Latvijā”, ir mēģinājums piedāvāt teorijas apkopojumu un galvenās pamatnostādnes. Maģistra darbs un tā pētījums tiek veikts jomā, kas ir pietiekami jauna, tāpēc šī darba mērķis ir, pamatojoties uz pieejamo teorētisko literatūru, padziļināt un paplašināt vispārējo izpratni par šķeltnieciskās inovācijas teoriju un noskaidrot, izmantojot autores septiņas pazīmes, vai savstarpējo aizdevumu platformas Latvijā – TWINO un Mintos – ir iespēj…

Why have consumers opposed, postponed, and rejected Innovations during a pandemic? A Study of mobile payment Innovations
2021
The highly infectious nature of the COVID-19 virus has made the use of contactless payment methods a health exigency. Yet, consumers are resisting using mobile payments (m-payments) during the pandemic, a confounding behavior that needs to be better understood. The present study explicates this behavior by examining consumer resistance to m-payments during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, it provides more granular findings by measuring three levels of resistance/non-adoption, namely, postponement, opposition, and rejection. In this way, the study adds depth to the literature, which has largely examined resistance at an aggregate level to yield generic findings. Toward this end, the study…
