Abstract

With the accelerated pace of technological innovation, many local and international corporations have been entering into e-Marketplace, launching new business models, and constantly generating new ideas for serving the society. The rising labor costs of business necessitate the exploitation of the evolving e-Business technologies for the optimal utilization of corporate donations. Such technologies have transformed the B2B global marketing of products and services from developing countries, as seen from the success of the Alibaba group in China. The purpose of this study is to develop a B2B social e-Business (SeB) model and subsequent implementation of a digital platform to facilitate donations from donors to eligible recipients all over the world. A case study has been presented to illustrate the practical feasibility of the model.
