2.2 Enterprise innovation ecosystem

The research object and scope of the innovation ecosystem determine the research boundary of the innovation ecosystem.Scholars represented by Moore have clearly defined the boundaries of the study.The boundaries include parties to the innovation system,stakeholders(Mei Liang,Chen Jin,Liu Yang,2014;Helfat,et al,2015;Adner,2012).Scholars represented by Chesbroush focus on enterprises as the research center and fuzzy boundaries of the innovation ecosystem(Amit and Zott,2015;Salonen and Jaakkola,2015;Zhao Fang and Zeng Guoping,2014).Scholars define the system boundary of innovation ecosystem and begin to study the construction and governance objectives of enterprise innovation ecosystem.The system control objectives of enterprise innovation ecosystem mainly focus on coordination,control problems(Lumineau and Henderson,2012;Carson,et al,2006)and the maximum value or stakeholders.It is obvious that the research of innovation ecosystem is deepening gradually,but it is rarely to conduct the study with population dynamics and other ecological methods.Whether or not,that the growth characteristics of an innovative ecosystem and its innovative population accord with the laws of ecology need to be verified by relevant ecological theories and methods.
