CFP: Digital Innovation and Strategic Transformation @ IEEE IT Professional

Submission deadline: April 1, 2016
Publication: November/December 2016

Firms must increasingly turn their attention to innovatively embrace the promise of the technological developments such as e-commerce, cloud computing, mobile, big data, internet-of-things, social technologies and cognitive solutions that shape their business strategy and competitive position. They must also address the changing preferences and demands of the customers and the society they serve. The emerging complex and dynamic business environment offers several new opportunities, but it also comes with significant risks.

This special issue of IT Professional seeks to examine digital innovation and strategic transformation that is driving the industries, government and the society. It will showcase innovative smart services, digital products and platforms, discuss current issues, challenges and practices and look into future prospects.

Digital business models
