Abstract:
Innovation and knowledge ecosystems are integral parts of today’s fast-paced global economy. However, the challenge of effectively governing and managing knowledge within these complex networks remains largely unaddressed. Through a scoping literature review, focusing on existing frameworks, models and best practices related to knowledge management and governance, this paper introduces the ARA (Actors, Resources, Actions) Framework. The framework serve as tool for mapping knowledge management and governance activities in operational, tactical and strategical levels with respect to the constituent elements of innovation ecosystems. A conceptual Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) is developed, providing a visual representation of the relationships between actors, resources and actions, serving as a referential artifact for ecosystem database modeling. The paper concludes by discussing the practical implications of the ARA Framework for stakeholders and offering insights into future rese
arch and the combined utility with other models for innovation and knowledge ecosystems, such as Open Innovation frameworks and the Triple or Quadruple Helix models.
