Item type:Publication, The architecture of innovation: how firms configure different types of complementarities in emerging ecosystemsEcosystems are one of the major trends today. They are based on complementarities, which can take the form of supermodularity or uniqueness and appear on both production and consumption side. Different configurations of complementarity lead to different char-acteristics of ecosystems with different implications. But which configuration of complementarities is beneficial in a given setting and what are the resulting consequences? We study emerging ecosystems driven by the respective orchestrator. Based on a multiple-case study, we show how and why orchestrators are leveraging different configurations of complementarities depend-ing on, amongst others, competition on ecosystem or value propo-sition level and uncertainty and the resulting challenges for the orchestrator. These insights provide researchers with a better understanding of the basic mechanics of ecosystems and explain why certain types and structures of ecosystems are more likely to be seen in specific environments. For managers, it helps to sketch the development paths for own ecosystems.Type:journal articleJournal:INDUSTRY AND INNOVATIONVolume:29Scopus© Citations 15 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, The Ecosystem Blueprint: How Firms Shape the Design of an Ecosystem According to the Surrounding ConditionsEcosystems are formed by organisations that jointly create a value proposition that a single firm could not create in isolation. To deliver this value proposition, the partners need a focal firm, the orchestrator, to be align them towards the joint value proposition. Thus, how orchestrators design the alignment structure of an ecosystem is at the very heart of the ecosystem concept – yet it has not been sufficiently addressed by extant research. This is all the more true for the question of how the design of an ecosystem is shaped depending on surrounding conditions. This paper applies a qualitative study with ten cases and, based on the attention-based view of the firm, contributes to research on ecosystems in several ways. First, it explains which ecosystem designs are beneficial under which conditions. Second, it elucidates the structure and activities within ecosystems and shows that start-ups can be just as good ecosystem orchestrators as incumbents. Third, it explains the circumstances under which single vs. multi orchestrator ecosystems occur. Fourth, it presents the conditions when incumbents or start-ups make better orchestrators. Finally, it is among the first studies to apply the attention-based view to business ecosystems, and shows that doing so yields intriguing insights into this emerging field of research.Type:journal articleJournal:Long Range PlanningVolume:54Issue:2Scopus© Citations 125 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, How firms shape organizational structures among ecosystem actorsBusiness Ecosystems are constellations of interdependent linked organizations aiming to create a common product or service. For this purpose, the actors need to communicate and exchange information. Since information is distributed via organisational structures, it is key to understand how firms shape such channels for the information exchange not just within their firm but also towards the partners involved in the ecosystem. Based on eight qualitative case studies, this article introduces a framework that shows two different orchestration types as well as three distinct organizational structures of information exchange. This framework allows managers to analyse their respective ecosystem and shape the organizational structures accordingly. It contributes to research in order to shed light on the organization of ecosystem actors.Type:conference paper
