The Role of Business Models in Developing Business Networks

2008

Business models have received a substantial amount of interest recently. Also, various research studies have discussed business models, especially in the context of a single company operating in mass markets. Unfortunately, these models often are not applicable for complex products or services that build on long-term knowledge about customer tastes, facilities, and skills. Especially on global markets, the asset specificity and vast geographical distances make it difficult for any single company to provide this kind of service cost-efficiently on a large scale.

Collaborative Business Model Innovation Process for Networked Services

2013

This paper presents a process framework for innovating joint business models (co-BM) for multiple companies. Our framework describes the change management that should be carried out in parallel to the rigorous analysis and development of the business model details.

Often, a prerequisite for this is that the companies are willing to combine their knowledge by openly co-operating and by creating long-term strategic networks with each other.

Against this backdrop we are interested in how learning and knowledge sharing develop in an emerging business network. This leads us to develop a framework that combines learning with business models in order to bridge the gap between st…

Conscription of Network Business Models

2010

As enterprises focus increasingly on core competencies, the importance of collaboration and knowledge sharing between organisations is greatly enhanced. This article examines the development of knowledge sharing during the initial exploratory stages of an emerging business network.

Through developing a business model, network enterprises can learn to understand each other, create common concepts within their business network and evaluate feasibility of the endeavour. peerReviewed
