SIE 2016 - Symposium on Innovation and Entrepreneurship: SIE 2016

Drucker also affirms that Entrepreneurship is in itself an innovation, a managerial innovation. What "[g]rowth enterprises have in common [is] a 'new technology'…The 'new technology' is entrepreneurial management."4
Consequently, entrepreneurship is a managerial innovation and innovation is a tool, a mean for entrepreneurship. It seems evident that Innovation and Entrepreneurship are (or might be) cause and effect of each other, systemically integrated, and related by means of cybernetic loops through potential co-regulative loops (via negative feedback and/or feedforwad) and co-amplificatory and possibly synergic loops (via positive feedback).
Since 1) "entrepreneurs need to search purposefully for the sources of innovations," and 2) among what seems to be the most effective sources of innovations (including managerial innovations, i.e. entrepreneurships), are communications & control (Cybernetic) and Informatics tools, then a conference on Cybernetics and Informatics seems to be an adequate context for a symposium on "Innovation and Entrepreneurship." This might be especially true if we notice that "Innovation and Entrepreneurship" are (or might be) cybernetically related to "Cybernetic and Informatics" tools and technologies (see figure below)
Concepts, theories, methodologies, and technologies related to Cybernetics and Informatics are sources of and provide support for innovations and, hence, entrepreneurship of non-ICCT (Information, Communications, and Control Technologies) innovations. Reciprocally, entrepreneurship and innovations are required for transforming ICCT research into innovations, which integrate this research to Society, legitimizing and economically justifying it. Hence, we can notice the present implicit and potentially "explicitable" (not yet documented or consciously thought or practiced) cybernetic relationships between "entrepreneurship and innovations" on one hand and "Cybernetics and Informatics" on the other. To make explicit this kind of relationships is one of the main purposes of the Symposium on Innovation and Entrepreneurship: SIE 2016.
