The rapidly developing Internet, whose control is decentralized and which is run by self-regulated software systems, provides an unique and exciting opportunity that could potentially revolutionize the conventional ways of doing business entirely. Moreover, dynamic and changing market conditions make it necessary for companies to act in networks to maintain their competitive position. For this reason, they have to adapt their own actions to those of other market players, which requires a smart attitude and means that enterprises should be sustainable, modern, adaptive, and technology-oriented. For example, when it comes to making decisions about the extent to which a business model should be green or lean, these decisions are connected with logistics, IT, environmental issues, and network relationship management, especially co-operation between suppliers, customers, and competitors.\u00a0The aim of this Special Issue is to create a discussion platform (approaches, opinions, ideas) focused on new and emerging solutions and technologies that might be successfully applied in the configuration, improvement, and management of companies, supply chains, and networks in the highly volatile environment of today\u2019s global economy.\u00a0Both theoretical and practical approaches in the area are welcome, especially innovative tools, technologies, methods, instruments in management, and case studies from different sectors and different countries.\u00a0A list of some potentially interesting topics for this session is provided below:\u00a0E-commerce;\u00a0Innovative business models;\u00a0Novel business models and automations in the digital economy;\u00a0Social impact and interactions in digital economy;\u00a0Environmental impact and interactions in digital economy;\u00a0Sustainable supply chain;\u00a0Smart logistics;\u00a0Artificial intelligence in e-commerce and supply chains;\u00a0Modeling and simulation of business processes.
