Digital technologies enable organizations to pursue sustainability and social objectives, but rapid advancement creates governance challenges around cybersecurity, privacy, algorithmic bias, and transparency. New governance models are needed to balance opportunities and risks in digital transformation.

Current research emphasizes organizational outcomes while neglecting internal processes and managerial innovations that enable responsible technological change. The special issue addresses underexplored concerns about power imbalances, exclusion, inequality, and fairness in digital transformation.

The collection integrates previously separated research on technological disruption, governance, and sustainability. It welcomes interdisciplinary studies exploring how organizations can responsibly integrate technological innovation while addressing governance challenges and fostering sustainable societies.
