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. “New Forms of Enterprises” emerge, driven by constant business model transformation and innovation, acting as multi-sided platforms built on -as well as emerging from- digital innovations at the global, as well as local level, to produce shared value including that beyond monetisation.
The scope of the 1st International Workshop on Digital Business Innovation and the Future Enterprise Information Systems Engineering (DiFenSE 2015) encompasses all aspects of digital business innovation and the role of information systems engineering and conceptual modelling for design thinking and the discovery and exploitation of digital opportunities.
Thus, the workshop aims to promote and exchange ideas on the role and use of information systems engineering for future digital enterprises, digital business innovation and web entrepreneurship. The workshop is powered by the FP7 Future Enterprise Project Consortium.
