Business model innovation presents new and exciting business opportunities for value creation that are anchored in the (re)design of firms’ business models to reinvent and reimagine themselves. The exponential increases in computing power, almost ubiquitous connectivity, and algorithmic advances in artificial intelligence have vastly expanded both the variety of business models and their influence on firm performance. Research activities will center on studying this business model revolution—that is, from products to platforms, from firms to ecosystems, and from individuals to algorithms. Work will include assisting with business model innovation projects focused on development of cases (data collection, analysis) as well as literature review and other research activities related to entrepreneurship, strategy, and organization theory. Additional areas of research include linguistic approaches examining the role of language and time, including analysis of entrepreneurial framing and issues related to sustainability and process-based historical case analysis.
