  Recently, digital transformation has caught much attention of both academics
and practitioners. With the advent of digital technologies,
small-and-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have obtained the capacity to
initiate digital transformation initiatives in a similar fashion to large-sized
organizations. The innate characteristics of digital technologies also favor
SMEs in promoting initiation of digital transformation. However, the process
digital transformation in SMEs remains a black box and the existing findings of
digital transformation in SMEs are limited and remain fragmented. Considering
the important contribution SMEs can offer to nations and economies; it is
timely and relevant to conduct a profound analysis on digital transformation in
SMEs. By conducting a thorough review of existing related literature in
management, information systems, and business disciplines, this book chapter
aims to understand both internal and external enablers of the digital
transformation in SMEs.
