[EXTENDED DEADLINE: April 10th, 2016]
2nd International Workshop on Software Startups
co-located with the 22nd ICE/IEEE International Technology Management Conference
https://iwssublog.wordpress.com
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iwss2016
Trondheim, Norway, June 13th, 2016
The world has been witnessing the rapid spread of software startups
around different corners of the globe. A combination of infrastructure
development, such as cloud computing, mobile software development, and
easy-to-use tools have significantly accelerated the rise of software
startups by reducing the cost of doing it. Besides, an increasing
number of accelerators, incubators, and mentors provide the “know-how”
of doing a startup, contributing to a growing number of software
startups.
Currently, startup failure rate is still high. About 90% of the
startups end up as failure. Success is accidental. Many high-tech
startups are still experiencing problems of lacking systematic
methodologies on business, product, team, and market development.
Without a scientific foundation, it is hard to explain, to learn from
startup failures, and to repeat successes. The question is how to
extract and synthesize knowledge from software startups and contribute
to creating a set of guidelines and best practices to increase
entrepreneurial success rates.
This workshop intends to bring together the technological,
methodological, and operational perspectives on software startups. The
aim of the workshop is to gather industrial and academic minds
together to explore the potentials and synergies underlying these
perspectives. As a result of the session, participants will have a
clearer understanding of the current research activities and future
directions in software startup research worldwide.
After the success of the 1st Software Startup Workshop (SSU1) in
Bolzano, Italy, in 2015, we would like to encourage researchers and
entrepreneurs to submit their original research results or their
startup experience reports as the means for discussion and reflection.
Due to the emerging and nascent nature of these topics, conceptual or
position papers with original insights are also welcome. The topics
listed below are only suggestive and serves to solicit more
interesting related topics:
Impact of new technological trends on software startups
Lean startup concepts and their implication to software business
Customer/Consumer Development
Underlying theories/principles for software startups
Startup Ecosystems
Requirements Engineering in software startups
Agile approaches in software startups
Design Thinking in software startups
Marketing practices in software startups
User involvement practices in software startups
Analyses, challenges and opportunities in funding software startups
Scientific evaluation of software startups and ecosystems
