The growing intersection between technology and innovative business models is reshaping the landscape of entrepreneurship and innovation. The current context, marked by rapid change and demands for sustainable solutions, challenges researchers and entrepreneurs to explore new paradigms that foster competitiveness and organizational resilience.

In this scenario, the XIII SINGEP-CIK invites contributions that investigate how innovation, entrepreneurship, and startups are transforming businesses, organizations, markets, and industries.

Furthermore, the critical integration of technological innovation and social responsibility is redefining the landscape for modern enterprises, where success is no longer measured solely by economic prosperity, but also by positive social and environmental impact. This type of approach drives the emergence of innovative business models and the reconfiguration of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Social inclusion, equity, and diversity are now recognized as essential catalysts that enhance creativity and improve economic performance within these ecosystems.

In response to constant global environmental changes and the increasing demand for environmentally sustainable solutions, the XIII SINGEP-CIK is committed to exploring, through research, case studies, and practical reports, how innovation and entrepreneurship can strengthen the ability of entrepreneurs to adapt and overcome adversity, creating opportunities even in uncertain environments. The event highlights and values practices that challenge the status quo, developing important solutions that not only meet but anticipate the emerging needs of entrepreneurs, the market, and the communities involved.

The XIII SINGEP-CIK encourages submissions that explore these challenges through different methodological approaches, whether empirical or theoretical, involving qualitative and/or quantitative data. We seek research that advances academic knowledge and offers contributions to the academic field, as well as practical guidance for managers and policymakers. 

We invite the academic community to participate in this discussion, promoting the exchange of ideas that can drive new perspectives and strategic solutions for the future of business.
