ABSTRACT

This study aimed to empirically examine the structural equation model of the influence of digital marketing on organizational ambidexterity and innovation performance of Thailand startup ecosystems.  The study investigated the mediating role of organizational ambidexterity in the relationship between digital marketing and innovation. A survey was administered to a sample of 242 Thai startup organizations, selected from a population of 488. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to analyze the data. The findings revealed that digital marketing significantly and positively influenced organizational ambidexterity. Organizational ambidexterity was found to have a significant positive impact on innovation performance. Furthermore, digital marketing indirectly influenced innovation performance through the mediating role of organizational ambidexterity. The findings of this research contribute to knowledge on digital marketing, organizational ambidexterity, and innovation performance. In addition, this article offers significant value to researchers, organizational leaders, and entities involved in the startup ecosystem in Thailand. It serves as a guide for developing advanced strategies in digital marketing and innovation performance.
