European Journal of Innovation Management, 2022, vol. 26, issue 5, 1255-1270

Abstract: Purpose - This article aims to understand the dynamics between disruptive innovations and innovation ecosystems, using disruption business models as a catalyst. Design/methodology/approach - This study presents an integrative literature review and a theoretical framework in order to integrate the theories of disruptions and ecosystems. Findings - The dynamics of disruptive innovation, within an ecosystem, as an essential driver of creating new markets. The effect of creative destruction from a disruption influences business models in a coopetitive dynamic that drives the ecosystem as a whole. Research limitations/implications - Limited to theoretical research and suggested the application of the proposed model in an empirical study. Practical implications - Understand the formation of new ecosystems based on the occurrence of a disruption as a way for organisations to prepare for the arrival of this new market. Originality/value - The contribution of this study is based on joining the literature of disruptive innovation and innovation ecosystem, pointing to a theoretical framework and a flow of Evolution and Adaptation to the Disruptive Ecosystem that integrates this complex dynamic.
