• Title: Market Digitalization and Resilience in Crisis Times
• Authors: Guillermo J. Larios-Hernandez
• Abstract summary: This paper aims to explain the level of influence that contextual crisis factors may have played in organizational digitalization choices in search for resilience as part of adaptation strategies. The selected country is of particular interest as research target in the Global South, in that public policy has offered little support to keep business organizations up and running, leaving entrepreneurs with no other option but to implement bottom-up resilience strategies, including digitalization.

• Abstract: Based on a conceptual framework that integrates three dimensions of digital transformation (DT), namely, the nature of the product, client interaction, and the level of coordination with industry players, this paper aims to explain the level of influence that contextual crisis factors may have played in organizational digitalization choices in search for resilience as part of adaptation strategies. In particular, this investigation would analyze digitalization choices as survival strategies for COVID-19 crisis in the case of Mexican enterprises. The selected country is of particular interest as research target in the Global South, in that public policy has offered little support to keep business organizations up and running, leaving entrepreneurs with no other option but to implement bottom-up resilience strategies, including digitalization. Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) has been proposed to identify combinations of conditions to explain the role played by COVID crisis-related contextual factors that may have led to particular forms of digitalization. Semi-structured interviews with industry associations are also proposed to gain knowledge about group responses to the crisis.

  We propose explicit policy optimization (EPO) for strategic reasoning. EPO provides strategies in open-ended action space and can be plugged into arbitrary LLM agents to motivate goal-directed behavior. Experiments across social and physical domains demonstrate EPO's ability of long-term goal alignment.

  The impacts of mass migration, such as crisis induced by climate change, extend beyond environmental concerns. These crises exacerbate certain elements like cultural barriers, and discrimination by amplifying the challenges faced by these affected communities. This paper proposes an innovative approach to address migration crises through a combination of modeling and imbalance assessment tools.

  This paper develops a catalog of such strategies and develops a framework for them. It argues that they provide an efficient response to decision problems that are seemingly intractable due to high uncertainty. It then proposes a framework to incorporate them into decision theory using multi-objective optimization.
