Innovation has, over the last few decades, been closely intertwined with digital technologies and the successive breakthroughs consequent upon their diffusion. New strategic initiatives and organizational arrangements (e.g., platforms and ecosystems) have developed and continue to emerge as socioeconomic actors seek to take advantage of the shifting furniture of the world (i.e., new things and processes, relations and architectures) brought about by digital technologies and accommodate it. As digital innovation has gained significance in the economy and society, scholars from various fields have brought rich and diverse perspectives to advance our understanding of the phenomenon. While these different perspectives undoubtedly enriched our collective understanding of innovation, they have led to fragmented discourses within intellectual echo chambers. The goal of the proposed panel symposium is to bring scholars representing different perspectives to probe the next frontier of digital innovation. In the proposed panel, we feature perspectives including modularity, network externalities, open innovation and generativity, architectural recombination, digital data objects, and algorithms.
