Using Indonesia micro finance organization, the test deployed four major drivers: technology infrastructure, organizational structure, culture and people. By addressing multiple linear regressions on 184 questionnaires, the study succeeded in uncovering the impact of proper KM-technology, organizational culture and people to the creation of competitive advantage, thus valid proponents for micro finance sector. However, failures to prove the role of the second drivers showed potential obstacle while preserving knowledge. Elements such as leaderships, adaptability, communication and bureaucracy might become the ideal moderator for future agenda.
