Introduction
This Special Issue explores Generative AI (GenAI)'s role in digital transformation, knowledge management, resilience, and entrepreneurial ecosystems (start-ups/SMEs). Bridges gaps in GenAI implementation with entrepreneurship theories (effectuation, action, creation), digital transformation models, and knowledge processes. Addresses productivity paradox, ChatGPT's rapid adoption (200M users/month), and McKinsey's 3.3% productivity boost forecast. Tackles societal issues like job displacement, agility, and fair access to tools.
