Description

Digital platforms have gained in popularity in B2B markets, leading to increased interest from researchers in IS and neighboring disciplines. Transferring findings from the much-studied B2C platforms is difficult as the two environments differ in numerous ways. Therefore, we argue that there is a need for a deeper understanding of the specific characteristics of B2B platform ecosystems in existing literature, especially from market and relational perspective. Conducting a systematic review with a focus on B2B platform literature from IS and neighboring disciplines, we identify and discuss three relational and four market-related dimensions. This paper contributes to the understanding of B2B platform ecosystems by structuring existing research and by providing starting points for future research.
