          <jats:p>Data ecosystems can generate valuable business opportunities, but research on their emergence within specific industries is limited. The cultural event industry is characterized by a multifaceted cultural landscape and a fragmented and heterogeneous market of cultural event platforms. The emerging German cultural data ecosystem, envisioned to share event data in a data space, could foster data-driven innovation and enhance value creation in the cultural event industry. Yet, following the ecosystem-as-structure view, the platforms’ willingness to participate in the cultural data ecosystem depends on whether their business model aligns with at least one of the focal value propositions of the cultural data ecosystem. In this paper, we develop a taxonomy of cultural event platform business models, and derive six archetypes. Additionally, we interview industry representatives of these archetypes to shed light on the benefits and obstacles when participating in the cultural data ecosystem, and to identify potential focal value propositions, corresponding actor roles, and activities. Our work contributes to the discussion on taxonomies of data-sharing business models and the emergence of data ecosystems in the cultural event industry.</jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{Joint value creation of organizations in ecosystems have a high failure rate, stressing the need for tools that enable the alignment of business models through visual inquiry. However, existing visual inquiry tools rarely consider recent design knowledge or ecosystem understanding. This leads to dissatisfied users and impedes the full realization of ecosystems’ potential. This short paper proposes an archaeological design science approach for enhancing the design of visual inquiry tools (e.g., a canvas) for ecosystems. Preliminary findings reveal 24 relevant artifacts, and shortcomings in the creation of conceptual models and rigorous evaluations. The proposed research process aims to develop design principles for more effective tools to bridge the gap between visual inquiry tools and ecosystems. This research contributes to design science research by reutilizing design knowledge and further developing the archaeological design approach. It also offers valuable information to practitioners about existing business model tools for the creation of ecosystems.}},

  abstract     = {{Platform-based business models underlie the success of many of today’s largest, fastest-growing, and most disruptive companies. Despite the success of prominent examples, such as Uber and Airbnb, creating a profitable platform ecosystem presents a key challenge for many companies across all industries. Although research provides knowledge about platforms’ different value drivers (e.g., network effects), companies that seek to transform their current business model into a platform-based one lack an artifact to reduce knowledge boundaries, collaborate effectively, and cope with the complexities and dynamics of platform ecosystems. We address this challenge by developing two artifacts and combining research from variability modeling, business model dependencies, and system dynamics. This paper presents a design science research approach to develop the platform ecosystem modeling language and the platform ecosystem development tool that support researcher and practitioner by visualizing and simulating platform ecosystems. }},
