Digital Innovation, Transformation, and Entrepreneurship (SIG DITE)

Digital innovation, transformation, and entrepreneurship are reshaping how organizations operate, compete, and grow. A range of established and emerging technologies, such as AI, quantum computing, blockchain, cloud computing, IoT, and digital platforms, are enabling novel products, services, and ventures – while also driving fundamental changes in organizational structures, strategies, and industry dynamics. This track provides a forum for research that explores the interconnected roles of digital innovation, entrepreneurial action, and digital transformation. We particularly welcome studies that examine how organizations – both startups and established firms – create, experiment with, and scale digital innovations to enable transformation, and how digital entrepreneurship contributes to the renewal of firms and ecosystems. We invite conceptual, empirical, and design-oriented research that advances understanding of how digital technologies foster innovation, enable entrepreneurship, and drive meaningful transformation across levels.
