Resumen
La literatura académica presenta diferentes proposiciones conceptuales, revisiones sistemáticas y análisis de estado del arte que sistematizan el fenómeno de los ecosistemas y contribuyen a su consolidación como teoría. En ese sentido, el objetivo de este ensayo teórico es aclarar las discusiones sobre los ecosistemas, presentando un panorama conceptual del tema y sus aplicaciones en el área de gestión e innovación. Se destacaron publicaciones de los últimos 5 años (2018-2022), así como obras clásicas que abordan el tema y contribuyeron a la evolución del uso del concepto en el área de gestión e innovación. Después de una descripción general de lo que son los ecosistemas y sus diferentes proposiciones conceptuales, incluidas las tres generaciones diferentes de estudios: a) construcción, b) experimentación y c) comprensión, discutimos los cuatro tipos principales de ecosistemas: negocios, innovación, emprendimiento y conocimiento, y sus niveles de análisis - estratégico y regional. El artículo también trae ejemplos de aplicaciones de ecosistemas y llama la atención sobre el uso adecuado de los términos. Finalmente, sugerimos posibilidades para futuras investigaciones empíricas y contribuciones a los estudios de ecosistemas para consolidar la teoría en el contexto de la gestión y la innovación.
