“…However, clear objectives should ideally be maintained in such a way that teams are independent in carrying out developments (Bosch et al, 2013). Furthermore, the team needs to ensure the maintenance of control and technical quality when implementing such rapid changes in services or addressing faults (Bohn & Kundisch, 2018;Njima & Demeyer, 2019). Instead, if the company decides to carry out rapid transformations for a new growth period, it can increase performance with new technology, expand its portfolio of offers, or create functionalities for the service (Bohn & Kundisch, 2018;Huang et al, 2017).…”

“…According to Kuratko et al (2019), it can be further investigated how scaleups overcome difficulties related to each stage of the life cycle (Kuratko et al, 2019). Such as, whether scalable business models hold up in a highly competitive environment (Barot & Chhaniwal, 2018;Say et al, 2018), and also, the main challenges of digital product development stages (Njima & Demeyer, 2019;Wang, 2016). Another possibility of future studies includes the verification of a possible relationship between adoption of good User Experience (UX) practices and the scalability of startups (Hokkanen & Väänänen-Vainio-Mattila, 2015).…”

Scalability is the process of rapidly expanding a startup's number of customers and profitability. There are, however, only a few studies on this process, despite the large number of startups, their relevance to the economy and, on the other hand, the low survival rate in this segment. The objective of this study is to develop a conceptual framework that identifies possible variables that contribute to the scalability process in startups. To address this objective, a systematic literature review and subsequent identification of relevant categories were conducted. Consequently, six categories were identified, and the relationships among them constituted a conceptual framework. This framework shows that the existence of a scalable business model, managed with resource orchestration and data-driven decision-making integrated into a monitored business environment, can lead to accelerated growth or scalability. Thus, the startup can reach the development stage required to receive investments considered essential for scaling or its accelerated growth.

ACM SIGSOFT International Workshop on Software-intensive Business: Start-ups, Platforms and Ecosystems (IWSiB 2019) was hosted by ESEC/FSE 2019 and it was held in Tallinn in August 2019. The workshop was motivated by a preceding Dagstuhl Seminar 18182 in which the participants agreed on founding of a workshop series for promoting and advancing the research of software-intensive business. This workshop paid special attention on the four modern themes of software- intensive business: engineering for software business, software ecosystems, education and software business, and software as a service. This report briefly presents the insights from discussions, presented studies and keynotes.
