Abstract

Objective: Innovation Ecosystems have made it possible to interpret the dynamics of business networks and market niches in theory and practice. Although interest in this topic has increased, most recent reviews do not show it through scientific mapping. Methods: This research conducted a bibliometric analysis of publications from 2000 to 2019 found in the Web of Science database and a citation analysis based on scientific mapping, in which the knowledge network is interpreted through the tree analogy. Results: The results show the three most important research perspectives: university, government, and industry; value creation and capture as a strategy; and innovation in business ecosystems. Discussions: Pragmatically, innovation ecosystems allow governments to implement national and regional strategies that promote innovation in different sectors of society. Conclusions: Managers and entrepreneurs should consider their position in the market through the value chain in which they participate. Furthermore, universities should strengthen links with industry, as they are factories of knowledge and promoters of economic development in their región.
