Reconfiguration of Business Models and Ecosystems: Decoupling and Resilience.

This panel session is based on the main chapter contributions of the book Reconfiguration of Business Models and Ecosystems: Decoupling and Resilience, edited by Svetla T. Marinova and Marin A. Marinov to be published in 2022 by Taylor & Francis. The term 'resilience' refers to the capability of a system to adjust itself to the changes shaping the processes of change preserving the structure and characteristics of the system itself. Business model resilience is the capability of firms to adjust their business models because of external pressures, meanwhile preserving their identity. To fill in the gaps in the extent studies and corresponding publications, the suggested book refers to a broad variety of relevant issues including but not limited to the reconfiguring of digital business models, resilience of business models across innovation and platform ecosystems, barriers and enablers of value co-creation in business model interaction, decoupling in data-driven business model innovation, multi-level analytical investigation on firm-, country- and industry-specific drivers of business model reconfiguration, Value creation and decoupling in business-to-business platform business models, and value creation in ecosystems considering customer preferences. The presentations of the panel will refer to the essence of the book content.
