Year: 2019
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to develop a theoretical framework for clarifying the ecological perspectives of firm’s innovation on the basis of earlier studies on entrepreneurship success. In order to achieve this objective, this study has accompanied systematic review of literature related to firm’s innovation. This study has used the eco-systemic approach to classify the existing literature and its triangulation. The components and propositions have been obtained through content analysis and synthesis. This study has developed a conceptual framework for the formation of innovation ecosystem around the firm’s innovation and entrepreneurship success. In this framework, we identify the main actors; the main expected consequences of actors interactions and the key mechanisms. Moreover, the key role of the actors, the essence of the interactions’ consequences, and the essence of the mechanisms are presented in the form of some propositions. - Some relevant studies might be missing within this study due to the selection of search terms and/or databases. However, by performing a forward and a backward search, we have minimized this error. This framework can be useful for practical implications including policymakers for enhancing the firm’s innovation and entrepreneurship success. The value of this paper lies in the integration of scattered previous studies on entrepreneurship success and firm’s innovation from ecosystem’s perspective
