AbstractFor decades, creativity has been used to generate ideas among entrepreneurs and their teams. Although extensive research has been conducted on creativity, the majority of studies have focused on traditional ways of stimulating creativity, such as focus groups, the collective notebook method, brainstorming, brainwriting, reverse brainstorming and problem inventory analysis. However, the digital age appears to challenge much of this existing work on the nature of creativity. It is clear that online creativity and audiences are affecting the meaning, expression and impact of creativity. The traditional techniques of stimulating creativity have been replaced and aided by technology-driven innovations, such as artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR) and the Internet of things (IoT). This chapter explores ways to activate the creativity of entrepreneurs and their teams through the use of digital technologies. We believe that this chapter provides a rich source of examples on how technology is currently being used to support creativity by encouraging entrepreneurs and their teams to make connections, develop ideas, create meaning, collaborate and communicate. We present, in detail, three case studies and discuss practical implications for the future.

The properties, potential advantages, and risks of blockchain technology are studied. The article gives examples of companies that use blockchain. They represent such areas as finance, data management, energy, government, transport, health. The main components of the Internet of Things are identified. These include means of identification, means of measurement, means of data transmission, means of data processing, performing devices. The hierarchy of the Internet of Things is also given. It consists of personal wearable devices, smart homes, and smart industry (industrial internet). The phases of the “industrial Internet” development are presented. The essence and constituent characteristics of Big Data are determined. Among them: volume, velocity, variety, value, veracity, variability, visualization. It is determined that the key sources of Big Data are information from the Internet; readings of various devices; corporate information. The competitive advantages of companies that use Big Data are given. Also, the advantages and models of using cloud technologies are described. The essence and components of artificial intelligence are determined. An example of its application in the economic activity of companies is presented.
