Scope and Focus of the Special Issue
The objective of this special issue is to provide a forum for IS and other business scholars to engage in an important dialogue on IT and innovation and to contribute to the development of cumulative knowledge in this pivotal area. We welcome research that focuses on:
· Applying existing/emergent IS theoretical perspectives to inform on how the infusion of IT reshapes innovation ecosystems, processes, models, platforms/architectures, and outcomes
· Proposing conceptual frameworks that integrate IS concepts and other business concepts to develop a fine-grained understanding of product–service innovation
· Empirically establishing the role and value of IT in product–service innovation, business model innovation, and management innovation-as an operand resource (i.e., as an enabler) as well as an operant resource (i.e., as a trigger)
· Theories and models that better integrate the simultaneous use of IT as an operand and operant resource
· Temporal and spatial analyses of innovation processes where IT radically transforms either or both of these dimensions
