Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Twin transition may be the key to transforming industrial value chains with the aim of minimizing waste and pollution. The digital and green transition of organizations is crucial for the environment, for business development and for the shift to circular economy. Innovative management approaches, methods, and models still need to be investigated and proposed for better performance. In the European research and innovation funding programme 2021–2027, Horizon Europe, technologies are prioritised: advanced manufacturing, advanced materials, life-sciences technologies, micro/nano-electronics and photonics, artificial intelligence (AI), and security and connectivity. However, business and industry change is complex and full of process uncertainties, and requires a socially responsible and innovative approach.
The studies in this Special Issue are expected to address the challenges of twin transition, proposing new scientific insights, classifications, evaluation methodologies and decision-making process analysis for changing business models and transition to environmentally friendly economy.
We welcome the contribution of studies on innovative technologies, social innovations, technologies for circular economy, corporate social entrepreneurship, technological solutions for green business transformation, smart home solutions, Industry 4.0, changing needs and behaviour models of society, green economy, etc.
We invite you to submit comprehensive reviews, case studies, or research articles. Papers selected for this Special Issue will be subject to a rigorous peer-review procedure, with the aim of rapid and wide dissemination of research results, developments, and applications.
