Business Ecosystems are formed to achieve something together
What are Business Ecosystems
Ecosystems are dynamic and co-evolving communities of diverse actors who
create and capture value through
increasingly sophisticated models of
collaboration and competition.
In Alibaba’s 2014 IPO prospectus, it used the word
“Ecosystem” 160 times
There are different archetypes of ecosystems and businesses can play different roles
What Are Different Types of Business Ecosystems
CENTRALIZED ECOSYSTEM
The business model is the Orchestrator, and controls and provides incentives to the network participants
Example:InnoCentive and XPrize
SEQUENZED ECOSYSTEM
The business model is the Coordinator of boundary-spanning, sequential activities performed by the participants
Example: Li & Fung
FACILITATED ECOSYSTEM
The business model is the Facilitator and gently shapes the interactions through governance and protocols
Example:American Express Open Forum
SELF-ORGANIZED ECOSYSTEM
The business model is a Participator in a broader ecosystem and is able to capture value
Example:Red Hat and Linux Ecosystem
BUSINESS MODEL
The story of Li & Fung – a successful platform business with an “assets-light” business model
What Are Successful Ecosystems
o Founded in 1906 as a Canton-based China Trader
o Revenues of $19 billion (2015) and operations in
40 markets with ~22,000 people
o 40% of the clothing you see in an average shopping
mail was sourced from Li & Fung
o Platform business (“Market Making”) that connects
participants with the capabilities of others
• Network of ~15,000 manufacturers specialized in
different clothing components/processes
• Li & Fung customizes the orchestration of suppliers to
produce the products

The use of outsourcing will likely continue to accelerate but will change in nature from pure cost-cutting to a driver of business model innovation
Implications for Outsourcing
Powerful Intersection of Outsourcing and Innovation- Disruption in the Service Delivery Model- “Internet of Things”- Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
Service Providers emerge as Innovation Centers- Leveraged Assets (e.g., cloud)- Community & Crowd (e.g., enable and capture innovation)- Staff on Demand
