“…Accounting for potential conceptual overlaps (as illustrated in Section 2), the two keyword blocks-innovation ecosystems and mission-oriented innovation-comprised a broad range of synonyms derived from previous studies in both fields (see Appendix A Table A1 for review protocol) [10,12,61]. The search was limited to results published from 1987 onwards, as "the idea of 'innovating for sustainability' can be traced back" [62] (p. 6) to the publication of the Brundlandt report in the same year. Establishing a base line in terms of scientific quality, only articles published in peer-reviewed scientific journals were included in the search.…”

With mounting sustainability challenges, policy makers have embraced the idea of transformative, mission-oriented innovation policies, to direct innovation objectives towards the ‘grand challenges’ in recent years. Against this backdrop, the discourse on innovation ecosystems, bringing together actors from science, industry, government and civil society for collaborative research and innovation, has increasingly gained traction. Yet, their role and architectural set-up in a sustainability context remains rather poorly understood. Complementing a systematic literature review with methods of bibliometric analysis and typology building, this paper introduces a typology of mission-oriented innovation ecosystems. It finds that, depending on the type of mission they are trying to address, ecosystems differ, with both a view to the actors involved, and the specific role taken on by them throughout the innovation process. In particular, it points to an increasingly important role of the state for realizing system-level transformations, underlines the importance of civil society involvement, and highlights research organizations’ need to adapt to new requirements.

Holistic Governance for Sustainable Public Services: Reshaping Government–Enterprise Relationships in China’s Digital Government Context

The notion of holistic governance was originally proposed to make up for the fragmentation of public service provision. However, such a notion also has a great potential to be transferred and understood in the digital government context in China, where there is an increasing need to reshape the landscape of government–enterprise relationships that can enable enterprises to involvement effectively in holistic governance, or the planning and design of public services. However, previous empirical studies on holistic governance have neglected the question of how to make this happen. The aim of this article is to fill these gaps, building on holistic governance theory, this article offers a theoretical framework for government–enterprise relationships under the holistic governance paradigm. The framework identifies a comprehensive set of relationships that explain how these relationships affect enterprises’ participation in public service provision. The empirical analysis is based on case studies of four e-services cooperation programs in China. We report three main findings. First, economic incentive should be developed in combination with a holistic governance strategy in order to encourage policymakers to reshape government–enterprise relationships. Second, it seems that the implementation of holistic governance is more effective when complemented with a managerial strategy in relation to organizational transformation. Finally, trust-building between governments and enterprises plays a pivotal role in nurturing the holistic governance paradigm. These findings have important policy implications for efforts to promote enterprise participation and cross-sector solutions to fragmented public service provision.

“…Sustainable innovation seeks to mitigate harmful change processes and to reinforce sustainable actions. Narrowly defined, sustainable innovations reduce environmental burdens and focus on environmental technologies in order to drive sustainability; more broadly, sustainable innovations take a holistic approach to the economic, ecological, and social impacts of commercialized products and services (e.g., Lupova-Henry and Dotti 2019;Schiederig et al 2012). Sustainable innovation changes socioeconomic structures rather than merely fixing existing ones or producing temporary solutions for long-term problems (Sarkis et al 2010).…”
