Abstract

This paper investigates the phenomenon of systemic entrepreneurship in the digital age, using Tesla, Inc., and its leader Elon Musk as a case study. Systemic entrepreneurship is explored as a multifaceted concept that extends beyond traditional business management, encompassing the integration of digital technologies and the capacity to instigate significant social change. The study reveals that systemic entrepreneurship involves a strategic amalgamation of financial, social, and human capital, utilized effectively to drive transformative shifts in societal norms and practices. Elon Musk's role as a systemic entrepreneur is dissected, highlighting his unique capabilities in networking, resource utilization, and social influence. His leadership in introducing disruptive innovations and altering market landscapes exemplifies the profound impact of systemic entrepreneurship on societal evolution. This study not only enriches academic understanding of systemic entrepreneurship in the context of digital transformation but also highlights its critical importance in driving sustainable and progressive societal transformations thanks to technology.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management. The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning. The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
