He has been cited in The Economist\, The Wall Street Journal\ , Financial Times\, Fortune\, MSNBC\, and in some 400-500 news media globa lly.\n\nAbstract\n\nAs businesses and other actors throughout society reor ganize their value-creating activities around platforms\, the shared digit al infrastructure becomes an increasingly important determinant of competi tive advantage. Yet\, few businesses pay any attention to what I call the ‘commons ecosystem’ game that shapes these infrastructures\, and even fewe r actively participate in it. I suggest that they ignore this game at thei r own peril\, as digital infrastructures can regulate firm-level competiti ve advantage. My speech will describe how the commons ecosystem game is pl ayed by digital businesses. I describe the operational\, community-level\, and strategic motivations of playing the commons ecosystem game\, and we describe how four commonly used strategic maneuvers – Scaling\, Sponsoring \, Shaming\, and Scheming – shape the evolution of commons ecosystems. I c onclude by recommending how platform firms and other organizations should strategically integrate commons ecosystems in their game plan and by discu ssing more general implications of the phenomenon. A panel will follow to build upon this ground breaking management research to advance research an d on-the-ground action to fuel food convergence innovation platforms at wo rldscale for sustainable prosperity and affordable nutrition and health.\n \nChair: Laurette Dubé (Scientific Director of MCCHE)\n Co-Chair & Moderato r: John G.
