Call for Papers
28th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS2020)
June 15th - 17th 2020 / Marrakech, Morocco
Track: Business Models and Digital Transformation
(
https://ecis2020.ma/ecis-2020-tracks/)
*Track Description:*
The continuous development of information and communication
technologies (ICT) enables new forms of value creation in a
growing number of industries. To remain competitive, companies
must recognize the effects of new ICT on their business models as
early as possible and transform them accordingly or develop new
businesses in parallel. Such a digital transformation often
affects large parts of an organization, from the products or
services provided, to the processes and structures, as well as to
strategy and culture. This already leads to far-reaching changes
in economy and society. Therefore, it is important to understand
these ICT-enabled changes in the creation and realization of
value, exchanges and combinations of resources, delivery of new
digital services and products, process innovation, and thus new
digital business models. In line with the conference theme
"Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity in a Digitizing World",
companies also have to monitor their impact on society and the
ethical emplications of their business model design and
transformation choices while ensuring sustainable business
success.
As an established part of ECIS since 2014, this track, on the one
hand, will examine the impact of technological developments on the
design of existing and new business models. All parts of a
business model - the product or service, the customer
relationships, the resources and organizational structure, as well
as the cost and revenue model - are of equal interest. On the
other hand, the track is dedicated to the question on how
companies can successfully manage the digital transformation. This
includes strategic (e.g. the development of a transformation
strategy) and organizational issues (e.g. the nomination and role
of a Chief Digital Officer) as well as new management concepts
(e.g. the use of agile methods) and cultural changes (e.g.
flexible work environments). Furthermore, instruments and methods
for modelling, depicting and transforming business models are
relevant for the track.
Submissions are encouraged from all theoretical and methodological
perspectives drawing from IS, organizational behavior, strategic
management, entrepreneurship, and related disciplines. Authors
must clearly outline why their study is new and interesting for IS
research and practice and how it relates to the track theme. The
following list of possible topics is neither exclusive nor
exhaustive:
* ICT as "enabler" of new business models
* Digital transformation of existing business models through ICT
* Management of digital transformation processes
* Substitution and complementarity of new and existing business
models within an organization
* Effects of ICT on the organisational structure
* Development and implementation of digital transformation
strategies
* Redesign of interorganizational cooperation using ICT
* Changes in cost structures through ICT
* New forms of revenue generation using ICT
* The impact of ICT on the relationship between firms and
customers
* Development of digital competence within companies
* ICT-based and/or ICT-centric management and leadership concepts
* Redefining the relationship between employee and employer
through the use of ICT
* Corporate and entrepreneurial culture in the digital age
* Change management in the digital transformation process
