● Editorial board service across several respected journals further demonstrates his leadership role in the field.
Throughout the petition, we emphasized how his research addresses real-world challenges, particularly the digital transformation of businesses, strategic decision-making under uncertainty, and enhancing SME competitiveness. His methods, ranging from intuitionistic fuzzy analysis to advanced econometric modeling, have become essential tools for both academics and practitioners seeking to navigate rapidly changing global markets. One recommender captured the significance of his influence, stating:
“Without a doubt, it is clear that [client] stands at the top of international entrepreneurship research, given his achievements in developing comprehensive frameworks for digital transformation, innovative analytical methods using intuitionistic fuzzy analysis, and implementing strategic frameworks that improve SME performance.
