Yet, the extent to which technology advancement is disruptive and revolutionary has only become a subject of burgeoning interest among academics and professionals in recent times. Indeed, the revolutionary aspects of technology advancement brought by the latest industrial revolution (e.g., big data, wherein data as the new oil; artificial intelligence and machine learning, wherein human intelligence is simulated in machines for data acquisition, analysis, and decision making) have created unprecedented disruptions (e.g., co-existence of humans and machines in the future of work and the new marketplace), thereby leading to new challenges (e.g., danger or fear of becoming obsolete or redundant) and opportunities (e.g., creation of new markets and more efficient ways of doing things) for firms and their business models (BMs). However, business model innovation (BMI) that responds to these new developments (e.g., digitisation, digitalisation, digital transformation) has remained relatively underexplored. To address this pertinent research gap in a timely fashion, a special issue consisting of four papers on this revolutionary, yet disruptive phenomenon was curated to offer first-hand insights on the state of BMI through digitalisation. Future research directions are also thoughtfully provided herein this paper to stimulate additional research with respect to digital transformation and BMI. 收起
