    Track: Digital Entrepreneurship and the Future Enterprise


    Track description: Disruptive technological change has contributed in the
    last decade to accelerate the transition from a business-driven culture to a
    more 'social-oriented' one. Open innovation has become more influential and
    models of production and value creation are changing. The advent of social
    media, cloud computing, big data and the Internet of things outlines a new
    idea of socioeconomic organization, exemplified by the App Economy, already
    emerging as a collection of interlocking innovative ecosystems. The scope of
    the track encompasses all aspects of entrepreneurship and the role of
    information systems for the discovery and exploitation of digital
    opportunities, configuring new competitive clusters and enterprises, aiming
    to promote and exchange ideas of academics and researchers as well as
    practitioners. The track is powered by the FP7 Future Enterprise Project
    Consortium. The track will cover a wide range of topics. Topics of interest
    include, but are not limited to:

    • Digital Entrepreneurship
    • Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship
    • Internet-based Enterprise innovation
    • Digital Enterprise
    • Multi-sided platforms
    • Business Model Innovation Dynamics
    • Web Entrepreneurship
