企业创新生态系统参与者创新研究

How do innovate ecosystem actors participate in complementary innovation

通过对海尔集团创新生态系统构建的案例研究,打开平台焦点企业如何协调各参与者参与互补性创新的过程黑箱。研究先从资源禀赋程度和生态系统位置两个维度分析了不同类型参与者的角色特征和对焦点企业创新的作用,并关注他们与焦点企业进行资源互补时的互动过程,着重探讨了焦点企业与不同类型参与者进行前瞻资源化过程的协调行为。研究发现,不同资源禀赋程度的生态系统参与者会分别通过三种不同类型的前瞻资源化过程互补于焦点企业的创新活动,而焦点企业针对不同资源禀赋程度和生态系统中位置的参与者会采取不同的协调机制。由此,本研究归纳出创新生态系统参与者角色、前瞻资源化类型和焦点企业协调机制的匹配逻辑关系,最终得到一个整合框架。

Based on the case study of Haier Group’s innovation ecosystem,this paper opens a platform black box for how to coordinate the participants’participation in complementary innovation.This study analyzes the characteristics of different types of participants from the following two dimensions:resource endowment and ecosystem location.This research pays attention to the interaction process between participants and focus firm when they complement resources.We focus on the focal firm coordination behavior of prospective resourcing processes with different types of participants.This study found that ecosystem participants with different resource endowments will complement the innovation activities through responsive prospective resourcing,targeted prospective resourcing and collaborative prospective resourcing processes,while focal firm will adopt different coordination mechanisms upon different participants considering their resource endowments and locations in the ecosystem.Therefore,this study summarizes the logical relationship between the role of the participants in the innovation ecosystem,the prospective resourcing process and the matching and innovation of the focal firm coordination mechanism,and finally provides an integration framework.
