Journals @ Digital Innovation Foundation (DIF)

DIF journals focus on integrating practice and theory for more effective Digital Leadership and Digital Innovation.

We follow a Diamond Open Access business model (Roorykc, 2023), using the CC BY 4.0 license, and as a non-profit DIF will not charge any fees to authors or readers, all journal operations are carried by volunteers in academia.

Each article will identify "who did what" using the Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) standard, and while most research is still authored by academics, we promote efforts to involve academic and practitioner co-authors.

Journals

  • Business Technology Management Journal

    Business Technology Management (BTM) Journal seeks to promote best practices, theories, and cases for successful Digital Innovation, Transformation, and Entrepreneurship (DITE).

    The scope covers primarily IS/IT leadership and talent, digital strategies, digital projects, and how digital change is requiring new practices in various IS/IT professional specializations (e.g., business analysis, enterprise architecture, cybersecurity, etc.).

    BTM Journal is a hybrid between "academic magazine" and "academic journal", and seeks to transfer knowledge between theory and practice and vice versa. It also invites authors and readers with a more transdisciplinary vision, unifying researchers and professionals from business, computing, and engineering disciplines.

    Its audience still includes primarily the traditional IS/IT management roles, generally located within the Chief Information Officer (CIO) branch, but also emerging "Out-of-IT" roles, such as Chief Digital Officer (CDO), Data Scientists, Digital Product Manager, Digital Customer Experience, etc.

  • Digital Innovation Journal

    Digital Innovation Journal (DIJ) seeks to promote best practices, theories, and cases for the successful integration of digital technologies for innovation, value creation, and disruption at various scales and in all facets of business, government, and society.

    The scope covers all forms of innovation, e.g., products, services, processes, facilities, logistics, business models, ecosystems, cultures, behaviors, etc.
