The Organizational Design of Digital Innovation Labs: Enabling Ambidexterity to Develop Digital Innovation

Abstract: Digitalization requires firms to concentrate necessary capabilities around the development of digital innovation. Particularly, firms are experimenting with setting up digital innovation labs (DILs), which present internal but separate organizational units dedicated to the development of digital innovation. However, there is limited knowledge on how DILs develop digital innovation. To understand how DILs enable ambidexterity and, thus, develop digital innovation, we conducted an exploratory single-case study c… Show more

“…Researchers argued that a knowledge of innovation adoption requires a complete view of determinants of innovation resistance from the perspectives of users as well as technology features (Chang and Kim, 2019). While there has been a focus on the technology challenges behind the adoption of blockchains, the resistance of managers and users involved in organizations is relatively overlooked (Holotiuk and Moormann, 2018).…”

“…Digital innovation units can operate separately from existing structures and take different forms of organization and functioning, depending on the specific needs and tasks of the enterprise. For example, they can be organized as separate units within the enterprise working on specific projects, or as independent startups with their own ecosystem and financing [30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

“…Firms need a structure that allows exploration and exploitation simultaneously to nurture innovation ambidexterity. In this respect, managers need to set up think tanks responsible for brainstorming and exploring novel ideas, encouraging diverse perspectives, and establishing a dedicated digital innovation lab within the organisation to explore new technologies, trends and opportunities relevant to DSC practices (Holotiuk and Beimborn, 2019;Zhaoqiang, 2022). Concerning innovation exploitation, a thorough assessment of operational and economic strengths and weaknesses that may impact DSC adoption viability and success is essential.…”
