Digital Transformation and Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies

Happy to share that my colleague Prof. Sammar Abbas is guest editing a topical collection for Discover Sustainability (Springer Nature, IF: 3.0) on a topic that couldn’t be more timely.

The collection explores how digital technologies like AI, fintech, and platform economies are reshaping entrepreneurship in emerging markets, and what that means for sustainable development.

Topics range from green startups and frugal digital solutions to entrepreneurial ecosystems, digital inclusion, and the governance of digital ventures in resource-constrained contexts.

If your research sits at the intersection of digital innovation, entrepreneurship, and sustainability in emerging economies, I’d strongly encourage you to consider submitting. The journal is open access, the turnaround is fast (median 17 days to first decision), and the deadline is January 3, 2027, so there’s plenty of time to put together a strong contribution.
