Abstract

PurposeThe rapid adoption of the ecosystem concept in innovation contexts has led to a proliferation of differing uses. Scholars need to be crystal clear which concept of the ecosystem they are using to facilitate communication between scholars and allow for cumulativeness and creativity. This paper aims to introduce some clarity into the conceptual mist that surrounds the notion of “ecosystems” in innovation contexts.Design/methodology/approachA review of the extant literature on ecosystems in innovation contexts to derive an integrated approach to understanding the variety of constructs in use.FindingsThis paper introduces clarity into the conceptual mist that surrounds the term “innovation ecosystem”, showing there are three basic types of ecosystems, all of which have a common focus on the collective production of a coherent system-level output.Originality/valueContributes through a comprehensive overview of the differing ecosystem types in innovation contexts and with a heuristic to disambiguate types of innovation ecosystems.
研究创新环境下的生态系统
目的生态系统概念在创新环境中的迅速采用导致了不同用途的激增。学者们需要非常清楚他们正在使用哪种生态系统概念来促进学者之间的交流,并允许积累和创造力。本文旨在澄清创新背景下围绕“生态系统”概念的概念迷雾。设计/方法论/方法论对创新背景下生态系统的现有文献进行回顾,以得出一种理解使用中的各种结构的综合方法。发现本文为围绕“创新生态系统”一词的概念迷雾引入了清晰性,表明有三种基本类型的生态系统,所有这些生态系统都集中在一致的系统级产出的集体生产上。独创性/价值通过全面概述创新环境中的不同生态系统类型,并通过启发式方法消除创新生态系统类型的歧义,做出贡献。
