A META-ANALYSIS APPROACH OF INNOVATION PERFORMANCE IN MSMES

This meta-analysis critically evaluates the complex factors that drive innovation performance in Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises, integrating findings from a wide-ranging literature review.It also considers the specific difficulties MSMEs face, including limited resources and the inability to access key data, which can hinder their capacity to innovate and compete successfully in rapidly changing markets (Wenke et al., 2020; Yahaya & Nadarajah, 2023).The purpose of this research is to integrate existing knowledge to find key patterns and determinants of innovation performance in MSMEs, thus establishing a strong foundation for policymakers and researchers to promote and support long-term growth and resilience (Loo et al., 2023; Yahaya & Nadarajah, 2023).This method enables a sophisticated understanding of the direct effects of technological strategic orientation on MSME performance and the indirect effects on innovation (Peláez et al., 2024).The ever-accelerating pace of digital platforms further clouds this picture, requiring a more sophisticated understanding of A Meta-Analysis Approach of Innovation Performance in MSMEs https://iaeme.com/Home/journal/IJARM 45
