The population of this research was the ISP industry in Indonesia, which amounted to 474 companies, and the unit of
observation was the top management. Samples were taken from as many as 240 respondents. Testing the causality hypothesis in this research used Structural Equation Modelling (SEM).Results -The results of this research indicate that the business environment has a significant indirect effect on business performance through collaboration and digital innovation strategies, while the direct influence of the business environment on business performance is not significant.
