According to GlobalData, the fact that businesses fail to embrace digital ecosystem models can damage the company’s digital strategy.
The report stated that a lot of successful business models are ecosystem players such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple, Alibaba, and Tencent. They are using the models as a basis to venture into multiple sectors, generate new income streams, and accelerate growth.
Enterprises can understand how tech leaders have leveraged digital ecosystem models over time, the study found. Nevertheless, the ecosystem’s structure varies by country and region influenced by regulations and cultural preferences. That’s the reason why the ecosystems of Alibaba and Tencent are successful in China but have not attracted the West.
According to information, Japan-based Rakuten has a consumer-focused digital ecosystem connecting multiple B2C and B2B domains. The company is currently offering various services with the license of a fourth mobile operator in Japan. It also provides the inclusion of pet insurance, the purchase of a property insurance business, and a retail collaboration with Walmart.
