“…Merrilees et al (2017) investigated the role of employee engagement in facilitating an employee-led value co-creation in the not-for-profit context. Åslund, and Bäckström (2017) examined the role of management process in the “societal entrepreneurship” context and found out the role and focus of important processes. Breidbach and Maglio (2016) explored the role of economic actors in complex business-to-business (B2B) service systems, when resource exchange is contingent on available and accessible Information and Communication Technology (ICT).…”

“…Our conceptual approach considers servitization as the way to move toward value co-creation by innovating existing business models (Li, 2020; Landoni et al , 2020), in which customers’ value creation is integrated into management (Åslund and Bäckström, 2017). Focusing on the role of value co-creation in CCI introduces a digitalization-based servitization logic into studies of CCI (Chandna and Salimath, 2020; Li, 2020).…”
