There are many researchers and practitioners whose work is related to the field of software-intensive business. However, they are often not fully aware of each other's work as the research is scattered. For example, individual research contributions have emerged related to, for example, software engineering economics, digital ecosystems and software startups. The goal of the workshop on Software-intensive Business is to bring these different sub-fields together and strengthen their ties.
