Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid evolution of digital technologies is transforming the way businesses operate, compete, and innovate. Business informatics, as an interdisciplinary field, lies at the intersection of information technology, business processes, and data-driven decision-making. In recent years, emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), Cloud Computing, and Big Data Analytics have brought unprecedented opportunities and challenges for organizations worldwide. These innovations are not only reshaping traditional business models but also enabling new paradigms of value creation and customer engagement.
This Special Issue, titled “New Technologies in Business Informatics”, aims to explore how cutting-edge technologies are integrated into business environments to improve efficiency, agility, and sustainability. It will focus on both theoretical and practical contributions that address the design, implementation, and impact of these technologies on organizational strategies and operations. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to,
- Intelligent business process management;
- Predictive analytics for decision support;
- Digital transformation strategies;
- Cybersecurity in business systems;
- The role of emerging technologies in supply chain optimization and customer experience;
- Emerging technologies for Enterprise Resource Planning systems;
- Practical applications for business informatics.
We particularly welcome research that investigates the socio-economic implications of technology adoption, ethical considerations in AI-driven business solutions, and frameworks for managing technological complexity in dynamic markets. Case studies, empirical research, and conceptual papers that provide insights into successful technology integration and its measurable outcomes are highly encouraged.
By bringing together scholars and practitioners from diverse disciplines, this Special Issue seeks to advance the understanding of how new technologies can be leveraged to create competitive advantages for businesses while addressing contemporary challenges such as data privacy, regulatory compliance, data integration, and sustainability. Ultimately, the goal is to foster dialogue and knowledge exchange that will guide businesses in navigating the digital era effectively.
