In his presentation, Prof. Dr. Daniel Schallmo addressed the need for a deeper understanding of the success factors of digital transformation. Based on a systematic literature review and a bibliomantic analysis, he developed a new holistic model for digital transformation. The model provides guidance for organizations in overcoming transformation challenges and represents an important contribution to both academic discourse and practitioners in this field.
Tal Bergman presented the paper "Digital Implementation as a Driver of Successful Digital Entrepreneurship", co-authored with Prof. Dr. Daniel Schallmo. The paper was nominated for the Knut Holt Award for the best conference contribution.
