This book presents a collection of research papers that aim to elucidate the pivotal role of digital systems in driving the formation and evolution of digital ecosystems, thereby shaping new scenarios for organizing in the digital age, by considering people practices, organizational processes, and system design issues.
Each chapter offers insights into the ways in which digital systems and digital ecosystems contribute to addressing societal challenges, promoting sustainable development, enhancing collaboration and mitigating the negative effects of technological disruption.
Using a multidisciplinary perspective and multimethodological approaches, it explores the impact of digital (eco)systems on governance structures, economic models and social dynamics and provides insights into the transformative potential of digitalization in shaping the future of societies worldwide.
The diversity of perspectives makes this book particularly relevant for academics, businesses and public sector organizations. The content of the book is based on the revised versions of a selection of the best papers presented at the annual conference of the Italian Section of the AIS in October 2023 in Turin, Italy.
