Abstract

The Influence of Industry 4.0 on Business Model Innovations of Manufacturing SMEs

This paper investigates the influence of Industry 4.0 on the amount of business model innovations of German small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by means of qualitative expert interviews and quantitative frequency analyses. 70 expert interviews are conducted and analyzed in a structured form in order to derive the status of innovation of individual Business Model Canvas modules per company before and after the establishment of Industry 4.0 and to be able to add up the absolute frequencies taking all companies into account. This shows that Industry 4.0 has a clearly positive influence on the readiness for innovation of business model areas elements.
