A special issue related to the conference’s guiding topic will be published in the Journal of Business Research (JOURQUAL-B, ABS 3, IF 3.354). The theme of the special issue is “Digital or not – the future of entrepreneurship and innovation“. Authors should declare their interest in such a publication along with their G-Forum submission and – assuming acceptance for the conference and fit to the special issue – will then be invited to present their paper at a paper development workshop with the editors of the special issue at the G-Forum. Promising papers will then be invited to be uploaded to the JBR submission system, where they will enter the standard review process.
