JD leveraged its corporate ecosystem to launch new business models for growth. The ecosystem consisted of internal and external actors like subsidiaries, partners, and suppliers. However, intended leverage often encountered challenges like actor reluctance, incapability, or lack of available resources. The ecosystem addressed these challenges by functioning as a learning club to share knowledge, home court to develop capabilities, and magnetic field to aggregate complementary services. JD took pertinent strategies as a knowledge orchestrator, capability bundler, or service aggregator to leverage the ecosystem facets and launch new business models. This dynamic model of ecosystem-based business model portfolio extension differentiated BM competition and opened dialogue between ecosystem and corporate strategy.

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

4. Research requestion and relevant definitions
RQ: How could a BM owner leverage its
corporate ecosystem to launch a new BM?
• Firm growth or ecosystem expansion is
the result of continuously launching new
BMs into markets
• The process of BM portfolio extension,
instead of the BM portfilo itself
• Ecosystem (actors and resources) is the
stepping stone of such a process
Ecosystem -an intentional
community of actors under a
focal firm's influence (Moore,
2006, 1996; Rong and Shi,
2014; Teece, 2012).
BM portfolio -the range of
different ways a firm
delivers value to its
customers (Sabatier et al.,
2010)
BM - a system of
interconnected and
interdependent activities
that determines the way
the company “does
business” with…(Amit
and Zott, 2012; Zott and
Amit, 2010).

5. Ecosystem Leverage for corporate growth
Launching new BM one another based on a firm’s ecosystem is not
unlike launching new products based on a firm’s internal capabilities,
through which the firm keeps growing and the ecosystem keeps expanding
5
6. A single longitudinal case study
• JD is among successful BM innovators who benefit from their ecosystems. JD's
ecosystem consists of diversified internal and external actors, including JD's own
operations (e.g., JD Retailing, JD Logistics, and JD Finance), strategic shareholders
and allies (e.g., Tencent, Walmart, and Google) and other close partners (e.g., brand
producers, the 3rd party sellers, offline retailers and franchisees).
• JD experienced enough BM launch events for our observation and theorisation. The
involved BMs are of varying degree of novelty and include both digital and physical
ones, to-consumer and to-business ones, and platform-based and non-platform-based
ones, thereby increasing the richness and generalisability of potential findings.
• We delimit our analysis in the period from 2004 when this company terminated the
offline business to dedicate itself to JD.com, to 2017 when the gross merchandise
volume (GMV) achieved 1 trillion RMB (appr. 147 billion USD).
China's largest retailer (both online and offline) and China's largest Internet company by revenue.

7. Finding 1- Intended leverage often encounters challenges
Consider
• BM launch as a task
of looking for right
performer of
constituent activities
• while the established
ecosystem as a pool
of actors and
activities
Ideal
scenario
Reluctance
Incapability
Out-of-stock
No
available
from
existing
actors
7
8. Finding 2- Ecosystems can help address all three challenges
Incapability challenge Reluctance challenge Out-of-stock challenge
Ecosystem as Learning Club- a
realm where relevant knowledge or
resources are stocked and learning
facilities are provided.
Ecosystem as Home Court- a realm
where the focal actor enjoys
conveniences of advancing itself to
get the desired actor on board.
Ecosystem as Magnetic Field- a
realm where established BMs
complement the one under launch
to amplify its attractiveness
• Knowledge complementarity
• across actors
• Capability complementarity
• across activities
• Service complementarity
• across BMs
Multi-facets of an ecosystem
8
9. Finding 3- Focal actor needs to take pertinent leveraging strategy
Ecosystem as Learning Club Ecosystem as Home Court Ecosystem as Magnetic Field
Knowledge Orchestrator- To
stimulate knowledge exchange in
ecosystem by setting collective
learning agendas and developing
BM-specific facilitating tools.
Capability Bundler- To develop
capabilities pertinent to the new
BM by bundling sub-capabilities
that have been nurtured in
established BMs.
Service Aggregator- To arrange
managerial and technological
linkages across BMs to address the
desired actor's multi-point
demand.

13. BM Competition can be determined by factors beyond BM itself
In competition, a BM can gain support from the underlying ecosystem
• as Learning Club where relevant knowledge can flow faster than elsewhere
• as Home Court where the BM owner can enjoy customer and partner intimacy
• as Magnetic Field where complementary services can be aggregated to recruit BM partners
A differentiated ecosystem may provide the focal BM with superior strategic factors and
information, as well as with increased switching costs and reduced transaction costs.
All the four strategic themes of BM design (Zott and Amit, 2010), namely novelty, locked-in,
complementarity and efficiency, can be conditioned by the ecosystem where the BM is nested
Nowadays, competition is not occurring between individual BMs, but between sets of
dynamically interlinked BMs, i.e., ecosystems
Implications and contributions

14. Opening the dialogue between
ecosystem and corporate strategy
This is the first literature discussing ecosystem at the corporate level
The logic of dynamic resource leverage at the ecosystem level: generative property of ecosystems
• We support Hamel and Prahalad (1993) by arguing that the output of the established ecosystem can be
maximised with deliberate manipulation.
• We echo Ciborra's (1996) notion of platform organisation by revealing ecosystems' ability to generate new
elements that can support the organisation of new BMs for capturing market opportunities.
• Also consistent with Markides and Williamson (1994), what is highlighted by the notion of EL is not to reap
the economies of scale and scope, but to create new strategic assets, such as knowledge, capabilities, partners.
However, as ecosystem leverage involves external relationships
• The process could be more complex with explicit consideration of both the supply-side context (ecosystem)
and the demand-side context (BM) at a system level.
Implications and contributions

How such giant ecosystems are grown up?
➢ A new form of Positive Feedback
➢ Ecosystem as the steppingstone of corporate growth
➢ Not only supply-side economies of scale or scope
➢ Not only network effects (demand-side economies)
➢ But also economies of generativity
