Abstract

This special issue was organized to explore the impact of the internet and digital revolution on the field of management science (MS). Our goal was to highlight the scientific developments that have reshaped management practices and methodologies, enabling organizations to effectively navigate the increasingly complex challenges they encounter in today’s fast-paced environment. We received high-quality submissions from diverse contributors, which illustrate the broad interest and relevance of this topic. After a rigorous and thorough peer review, we successfully published 31 insightful articles. Each article provides a valuable perspective, contributing not only to theoretical frameworks but also to practical applications across various industries. This comprehensive collection serves as an essential resource, enriching the knowledge base for both scholars and practitioners in MS.
