“…This type of organization can learn/adapt from the environment, perform flexible transformations, and create new organizational structures through self-organization (Baker, 1992;Miles & Snow, 1995;Knoke, 2001;Imada, 2008). Joham et al (2014) explain that self-organization is "the ability of a non-centralized system to create a strategic response to a change in its environment" (p.2376). It is argued that self-organization is characterized by pattern formation, autonomy, resilience, robustness, adaptability, and dynamics (Wolf & Holvoet, 2005;Gilbert et al, 2015).…”

The promotion of new and competitive industries through cross-sectoral inter-organizational collaborations are tackled in many regions globally. This study explores the management of facilitating collaboration with consideration of the planned approach to change based on change management theory. The “initial conditions,” “field,” and “emerging interaction toward the collaborations” are clarified as key elements for management through intervention. It is considered how these interventions are implemented on these elements. A conceptual model for considering comprehensive management of the self-organization process toward collaboration is proposed. In the case study, experiences of the medical technology industry of three German states are examined. The activities of cluster organizations of these states, which provide services to facilitate cross-sectoral collaborations, are scrutinized. The results of the case study are comparatively analyzed, and the modified conceptual framework is depicted by reflecting the findings of the study. The implications are then discussed.

Cross-Sectoral Digital Platform as a Tool for Innovation Ecosystem Development

et al. 2021

At present, issues of ecosystem self-organization and the mechanisms for their sustainable development have been insufficiently explored in academic literature. The key idea of our research is that for enterprises interacting in different industries based on a network partnership, a special tool is needed to ensure the openness of interaction between participants in the transfer of knowledge, technology, information, and resources. The authors argue that the development and practical implementation of a cross-sectoral digital ecosystem platform will allow for the synchronizing of the scientific and technological progress of several industries, making the most effective use of the synergistic effect from the interaction of ecosystem actors and ensuring the transparency and openness of the ongoing processes therein. The authors demonstrate their propositions with the example of unmanned aircraft system (UAS) industry. The proposed model and mechanism of cross-sectoral interaction can be replicated in different technological niches, such as robotics, neurotechnology, quantum technologies, etc. The conclusions arising from the conducted research provide scientists, government bodies, and decision-makers with the necessary information for a better understanding of practical mechanisms and tools that allow for the implementation of self-organization and sustainable development in modern innovation ecosystems.

Many regions in the world are tackling promoting new and competitive industries through cross-sectoral collaborations to adapt, compete, and survive in dynamic, complex, and interconnected environments. Section 3 explores the research question (R.Q.) 2 introduced in Chapter 1 of Section 1 to elucidate the management approach to facilitate the self-organization process toward the collaborations. The literature review in this chapter first discusses that inter-organizational collaborations, a type of network organization, are formed through a self-organization process characterized by complexity and require intervention. Second, the planned approach to change based on change management theory is examined. Here, the initial conditions, field, and emerging interaction are identified as the key elements to be targeted in management through intervention. Finally, a conceptual model is proposed, and the method of intervention in the key elements is considered.
