Abstract: Abstract Digital platforms are technology-enabled tools that facilitate transactions and connections between stakeholders. Their features are consistent with network theory applications, in which stakeholders are nodes that rotate around the platform. Platforms may be considered a new virtual stakeholder that, consistent with network theory, connects conventional partners (shareholders, managers, employees, lenders, clients, suppliers, etc.), serving as a bridging node and edge in multilayer networks. Stakeholders are nodes that interact around the bridging (hub) node, sharing information and co-creating value within a sustainable digital ecosystem. Shared information is fueled in real time by big data, reducing asymmetries and risk and thereby redesigning information systems.
