Abstract: Abstract In this article, we introduce the global stakeholder capitalism model of digital platforms. We describe the role that big data plays in the formation of the new extended innovation ecosystems of digital platforms and explain how these extended innovation ecosystems give rise to this new model. We discuss the implications of this new model for the strategy of digital platforms from a Schumpeterian perspective and show how digital platforms profit from innovation by capturing a form of rents that differs from standard Schumpeterian rents rooted in innovation economics. We conclude that the sustainability of this model depends on a new form of governance that assumes multi-fiduciary corporate duties in the extended innovation ecosystems of digital platforms.
