Samenvatting
The objective of this article is to assess the influence of variables over which suppliers have control (supply-side variables) on the adoption gf innovations in addition to adopter-side variables. The empirical study focused on the adoption of electronic banking in the Dutch business market. A quantitative study was conducted to test hypotheses. The results show that the extent to which a supplier has pursued a strategy aimed at positioning the innovation in the market place or has focused on reducing the risk of adoption has a positive and significant effect on the probability of innovation adoption. The evidence corroborates that not only adopter-side variables significantly influence innovation, but supply-side variables as well. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Inc.
