Rethinking consumers' data sharing decisions with the emergence of multi-party computation: An experimental design for evaluation

Consumers are increasingly reluctant to share their personal data with businesses due to mounting concerns over privacy and control. Emerging privacy-enhancing technologies like multi-party computation (MPC), which allows generating insights while consumers retain data control, are challenging the current understanding of why consumers share...

Business Data Sharing through Data Marketplaces: A Systematic Literature Review

Data marketplaces are expected to play a crucial role in tomorrow’s data economy but hardly achieve commercial exploitation. Currently, there is no clear understanding of the knowledge gaps in data marketplace research, especially neglected research topics that may contribute to advancing data marketplaces towards commercialization. This study...

Business Data Sharing through Data Marketplaces: A Systematic Literature Review

Data marketplaces are expected to play a crucial role in tomorrow’s data economy, but such marketplaces are seldom commercially viable. Currently, there is no clear understanding of the knowledge gaps in data marketplace research, especially not of neglected research topics that may advance such marketplaces toward commercialization. This study...

How do business model tools facilitate business model exploration? Evidence from action research

Business model tools are commonly used to describe and communicate business model ideas. However, studies do not sufficiently address whether and how business model tools support the early, exploratory phase in which new business models are initiated, conceptualized, assessed and planned. In this exploratory phase, offerings and addressable...

Designing digital tooling for business model exploration for the Internet-of-Things

As digital technologies are transforming enterprises, the interest in business models is increasing. Technological disruptions like the Internet of Things (IoT) drive enterprises to redefine their business models to create and capture value, and eventually, to stay competitive. The need for business model innovation may be urgent, yet it is not...

Tooling for internet-of-things business model exploration: A design science research approach

Attention to business models (BM) is increasing as digital technologies are transforming enterprises in many industries. Technological disruptions such as the Internet of Things (IoT) force enterprises to rethink their BM to create and capture value. Even though the need for business model innovation (BMI) may be clear, how to change a BM is not...

The digital platform: a research agenda

As digital platforms are transforming almost every industry today, they are slowly finding their way into the mainstream information systems (ISs) literature. Digital platforms are a challenging research object because of their distributed nature and intertwinement with institutions, markets and technologies. New research challenges arise as...

Designing an ICT tool platform to support SME business model innovation: Results of a first design cycle

Business model innovation (BMI) is becoming increasingly relevant for enterprises as they are faced with profound changes like digitalization. While business model thinking in academia has advanced, practical tooling that supports business model innovation for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) is still lacking. In this paper, we design,...

Applying Agile Design Sprint Methods in Action Design Research: Prototyping a Health and Wellbeing Platform

In Action Design Research projects, researchers often face severe constraints in terms of budget and time within the practical setting. Therefore, we argue that ADR researchers may adopt efficient methods to guide their design strategy. While agile and sprint oriented design approaches are becoming common in the practitioner domain, they have...

The disruptive impact of digitalization on the automotive ecosystem: a research agenda on business models, platforms and consumer issues

Digital technologies are transforming the automotive industry, and disrupting traditional business models based on ownership of cars.
