MINITRACK DESCRIPTION

Minitrack 3: The Value of Open Business Models and Ecosystems

New forms of openness in organisations and society are providing opportunities to sustainably create and capture value in novel and powerful ways. This openness, characterised by the interplay between various technological, legal, socio-cultural, and economic systems, transforms the way people create, capture, use, and disseminate knowledge. However, the potential value from openness is predicated on the adoption and/or development of appropriate business models, organisational forms, and ecosystems. We are interested in exploring the different types of open business models and ecosystems, their characteristics, nuances, value opportunities, and sustainability in the long term. Ultimately, questioning if openness can create value in all domains and whether organisations and communities can benefit from adopting more open practices. This mini-track invites conceptual and empirical research that will contribute to our understanding of a range of open business models and ecosystems and their value in diverse contexts.

This mini-track invites research papers, research-in-progress papers, and panels on topics relating to the value of open business models and ecosystems. We are interested in the application of openness to diverse contexts and the value and sustainability of the business models and ecosystems that emerge. We welcome a broad range of empirical and conceptual work, drawing on a range of research methods including quantitative, qualitative, design science, action research, literature reviews, and other approaches.

Topics of interest to this minitrack include but are not limited to:

*          Open Business Models

*           Open Business and Community Ecosystems

*          Openness and Sustainability

*          Open Community and Collaboration Structures

*          Open Innovation Models

*          Openness and Collective Intelligence, Action, and Resources (e.g. Crowdsourcing/Crowdfunding)

*          Open Cultural and Creative Processes

*          The Relationship between Openness, Trust, and Privacy

*          Open Approaches to Project Management and Knowledge Work

*          Openness and the Co-Creation of Products and Services
