A 3D Virtual Space for the E-Commerce Strategy Mode

In recent years, innovative applications of electronic commerce (e-commerce) are facing the challenges of mobile commerce (m-commerce) and ubiquitous commerce (u-commerce). To address these challenges and improve the competitiveness of e-commerce, the three-dimensional e-commerce (3DEC) theory is proposed and a 3DEC business strategy model is built up in this study. The new conceptual 3DEC model incorporates the industrial environment analysis, SWOT analysis, and business model canvas (BMC). As a case demonstrated in the British Museum program, this model brings benefits to a wide range of organizations in public and private sectors, as well as e-commerce researchers and practitioners.
