PublicationBlueprinting Crowdfunding - Designing a Crowdfunding Service Configuration Framework( 2017-02-12)Crowdfunding gained momentum over the last few years. In contrast to traditional forms of funding, the service provision of crowdfunding platforms is performed within service systems. These comprise a complex combination of IT and non-IT services, different stakeholders, and diverging contexts and purposes. The design and operation of such service systems represents a tough challenge. Therefore, we developed a crowdfunding service configuration framework in the form of a morphological box and derived three dominant design patterns by following a design science approach. Therefore, we followed three iterations, which comprise in total twelve expert interviews, three case studies and the analysis of 161 crowdfunding platforms. The configuration framework extends research on crowdfunding and service science by providing insights in how to support the systematic design of crowdfunding service systems, reducing their complexity, and giving a comprehensive overview over their building blocks.Type: conference paper

PublicationManaging Disruptive Innovation through Service Systems – The Case of Crowdlending in the Banking Industry(Association for Information Systems, 2016-12-11)
;Jakob, ThomasThe Internet has affected and partially radically changed the business models of traditional industries. Crowdfunding as a new concept of funding over the Internet by a large crowd has especially gained maturity. Crowdfunding offerings range from funding charitable projects or innovative gadgets to a funding alternative for start-ups or small businesses. Therefore, crowdfunding represents an innovative way to provide liquidity for illiquid markets. With regard to the banking crisis and the growing skepticism toward banks, crowdfunding is seen as a more transparent, democratic, and entertaining way of funding, which makes it highly attractive for banks. A senior innovation manager of The Bank of Switzerland (TBOS), one of Switzerland’s largest and most traditional banks, recognized the disruptive and beneficial potential of crowdlending. By facing strong resentments, he developed the idea of TBOS engaging in crowdlending by collaborating with a start-up by bundling competencies in a service system.Type: conference paper
