Abstract
Ecosystem research has been gaining attention among both scholars and
practitioners. These discussions predominantly focus on a very particular type of
ecosystem. Our integrative review offers a better understanding of the boundary
conditions between different ecosystem types and identify which ecosystems will best
facilitate the realization of specific goals. We achieve that by focusing on a
combination of ecosystem and boundary condition perspectives. In particular, we
focus on business, innovation, entrepreneurship, and knowledge ecosystems. We find
that several clear boundary conditions exist between ecosystem types and that each
ecosystem type can be applied to attain specific goals. Our findings inform a thematic agenda for future research.
