Formation of Organizational and Economic Model of Cross-Industry Ecosystems

Abstract

Abstract The study focuses on the research of fundamental reasons underlying the emergence of digital platform providing the formation of the global view on the role of digital platforms for building of a new organizational structure - “high-tech industrial ecosystem”. The purpose of the study is the validation of development a modern mechanism for the coordination of high-tech market entities within a single economic and organizational space – the ecosystem based upon the cross-industry digital platform. This study, using general methods of scientific knowledge in various aspects, analyses the modern vector of the industrial growth explained by the implementation of ecosystems as new organizational and economic models. The principles for their formation, the probable structure, main differences from the traditional cluster and network models are reflected. It is proved that it is the ecosystem model that makes the ecosystem members achieve a positive synergetic effect during the implementation of their strategic growth targets in the conditions of digital transformation. The article considers the application of tools of the industrial digital platform providing for the implementation of interaction between ecosystem members. Platform-based solutions have the big future from the viewpoint of the large data arrays analysis, reduced transaction losses and “perfect information” obtaining. As a result, the immediate course for introduction of cross-industry digital platform and ecosystem building is justified. Digital cross-industry interaction within the platform will help to expand external communication and promotion channels, introduce digital business models and diversify production but it requires the provision of compatibility between the systems of industrial companies, functioning of a single digital platform and the cloud-based environment.
