This study aims to develop an innovation network model to help MSMEs recover from the downturn due to the pandemic. The basic model used is an innovation network consisting of associations, suppliers, customers and government. The basic model was developed by adding capital and digitalization variables to suit the needs. Data processing uses a structural equation model and the sample is MSMEs in West Java province. This study is the first on the innovation network model for MSMEs affected by the pandemic and the largest number of MSME respondents. The results conclude that according to MSMEs in Indonesia, suppliers, customers, government, associations, capital, and digitalization have an effect on the innovation network. This study concludes that associations, suppliers, customers, government, capital and digitalization all have a positive effect on the innovation network. This finding is the first in the innovation network model for MSMEs that accommodates the needs of the industry to recover from the pandemic situation and adds new literature on industrial innovation networks. While previous studies have a lot of similar literature, all focus on certain types of businesses and on normal economic conditions. This study is different from similar studies because it was conducted on MSMEs in all business sectors and economic conditions in crisis due to the pandemic. These results can be used as a reference in decision making to increase the growth of MSMEs with limited resources.

In today's rapidly changing and interconnected world, governments are aware that they need to adapt their operations to effectively navigate the complexities they face. To address these challenges and operate more efficiently, governments must forge partnerships, embrace innovation, demonstrate effective leadership, and, most importantly, cultivate a skilled workforce. Recognizing this need, this study focuses on examining the impact of Agile HRMS on organizational performance within the Dubai government. To investigate this relationship, a survey was conducted involving 107 employees from various government departments in Dubai. The results of the survey revealed significant and positive correlations between all the dimensions of Agile HRMS (namely, Agile talent acquisition, Agile employee engagement, and Agile learning and development) and organizational performance. These findings underscore the significance of adopting Agile HRMS approaches in enhancing the professional development and effectiveness of government operations. Therefore, it is recommended that policymakers within the government sector adopt and integrate Agile HRMS practices, as doing so can create an environment conducive to increased productivity and success across these organizations.
