Innovation management in a digital world

The third industrial revolution is characterised by the appearance of nuclear energy, the rise of electronics with transistor and microprocessor, the increase of telecommunications and computers, and in industry the high-level automation in production with programmable logic controllers and robots. There are discussions whether robots or intelligent machines will innovate in the future (Botha, 2019). Since digitalisation affects all our life in production, business, education, health system, at home, it is discussed in many different contexts, in conferences, by policy makers also in relation with funding strategies. Among others, International Association for Management of Technology (IAMOT) offers a platform for discussing digitalisation in the context of innovation and technology management. [...]IAMOT2017 Conference emphasised on digitalisation in the context of MoT and innovation management. (2019) analyse the technological change through IIOT, the control of the physical world, including the machines, industrial facilities, and frameworks that characterize cutting-edge technology through digitalisation.
