Abstract
Digital platforms are disruptive IT artifacts, because they facilitate
the quick release of innovative platform derivatives from third parties. This
study endeavors to unravel the disruptive potential, caused by distinct designs
and configurations of digital platforms on market environments. We postulate
that the disruptive potential of digital platforms is determined by the degree of
alignment among the business, technology and platform profiles. Furthermore,
we argue that the design and configuration of the aforementioned three
elements dictates the extent to which open innovation is permitted. To shed
light on the disruptive potential of digital platforms, we opted for digital
payment platforms as our unit of analysis. Through interviews with experts and
payment providers, we seek to gain an in-depth appreciation of how
contemporary digital payment platforms are designed and configured to foster
open innovation. We envision that this study bridges existing knowledge gaps
between digital platform and open innovation literature.
