Management and Organization Review Special Issue ‘Business Model Innovation in Transforming Economies’
这篇特刊征稿研究转型经济(如金砖国家、前苏联共和国、东欧国家)中本土的商业模式创新,关注现有企业如何调整或创造全新模式,以及初创企业如何挑战旧模式,旨在填补该领域研究空白并推动理论发展。
Transforming economies such as the BRIC countries – Ex-Soviet Republics, or Eastern European countries – share national aspirations of becoming innovation economies. These aspirations have stimulated a push for entrepreneurship and experimentation with new ways of doing things. This has created a fascinating context for research on business model innovation, relating to the way incumbent firms adapt their business models or come up with entirely new models. Similarly, new business models may be originated by start-up companies that often are challenging and leapfrogging the ‘tired’ old business models or simply invent new ones. However, research that specifically explores indigenous business model innovation in the context of these transforming economies is still in its early stages. The MOR special issue on ‘ Business Model Innovation in Transforming Economies ’ aims to address this gap by soliciting research uncovering successful new business models that is indigenous to these economies, as they transition to becoming innovation economies themselves and contribute to strategy and management theory development.
