INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM
DIGITIZATION, INNOVATION AND PERFORMANCE
I. OVERVIEW
Over the past decade, technological developments have pushed companies to digitize their activities in all areas in order to strengthen their competitive advantages and differentiate themselves from their competitors. This is mainly due to the crucial importance of digitization in the collection, processing, storage and transfer of data. With the advent of digital technologies, a new social paradigm has emerged and disruptive changes have gradually become an important part of the progress of every business. Therefore, digitization plays an increasingly decisive role in the growth and development of companies and leads to fundamental structural and strategic transformations.
Meanwhile, digitization is leading companies to undertake radical transformations not only in their operating systems but also in their processes and methods of human resource management. Indeed, digital transformation creates new opportunities and represents an important engine behind generating innovation and creating values. Thus, innovation research is increasingly taking into account the role of values and normative orientations for innovation and its management (Breuer & Lüdeke-Freund, 2017) . In fact, the growing importance attributed to innovation as a mechanism of economic development has generated a large body of research aimed at understanding how economic agents interact with digitization.
In order to establish an academic exchange between researchers from different fields and to construct a theoretical framework guiding future researchers on digital transformation, innovation and business performance, EMAA Business School convenes an international interdisciplinary research colloquium on "Digitization, Innovation and Performance ".
The colloquium aims to bring together academicians, scientists, professors, researchers and practitioners to interact and share their knowledge, experiences and research results on all aspects of digital transformation and innovation. In addition, high-quality research contributions describing original and unpublished results of conceptual, empirical, experimental or theoretical work in fields related to digital transformation and innovation are invited to be presented to the colloquium committee for approval.
