A growing body of research exists about ecosystem design, but designing local ecosystem instances within a global ecosystem is not yet well understood or defined. This article contributes a multilevel, embedded case study of the global and local ecosystems anchored around the Technovation Girls competition - the world's largest technology entrepreneurship challenge for girls. We first define the process platform driving this ecosystem and anchoring the local instances. Second, we identify key architectural properties of a global-local ecosystem. Lastly, we specify a process for defining design rules in an organizational setting. In addition to theoretical relevance for ecosystem scholarship, our results are also of practical relevance to leaders of existing or nascent global ecosystems, who may benefit from techniques described in this paper that involve designing a flexible global ecosystem architecture that accommodates local variation.

She completed a Master of Applied Science in Technology Innovation Management, and her thesis was at the intersection of design, globalization, and business ecosystems, specifically applied to global organizations that empower girls through technology entrepreneurship. As a new entrepreneur, she leverages her expertise in engineering, design, and business ecosystems to help women in STEM achieve their full career potential. She is an active member of the engineering community, serving on the Board of Directors at the Society of Women Engineers - Ottawa, and volunteering for organizations such as Technovation. U2 - Carleton University Dr. Steven Muegge is an Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Sprott School of Business at Carleton University. He teaches, conducts research, and supervises graduate students within Carleton’s Technology Innovation Management (TIM) program, and actively promotes entrepreneurship and innovation within the broader community. Dr. Muegge leads an active research program in technology entrepreneurship and commercialization. One stream of current research examines non-traditional settings for innovation, including interconnected systems of business ecosystems, communities of users and developers, and industry platforms outside the control of any single company. A second stream examines the business models of technology entrepreneurs who create new companies and develop new products and services within these settings. Both streams are directly relevant to promoting economic prosperity for Canada and the National Capital Region, and to building differentiation and advantage for entrepreneurs and their companies. ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Design Rules for ‘Triple Helix’ Organizations JF - Technology Innovation Management Review Y1 - 2019 A1 - Ben Dankbaar KW - design rules KW - leadership KW - motivation KW - sanctions KW - triple helix AB - The image of the triple helix with three forces spiraling around each other has proven to be a powerful and inspiring image of the collaboration between government, business, and academia. The partners in such collaborative arrangements no doubt share an interest in making the collaboration successful. However, they also have specific interests and goals of their own. Too many triple helix arrangements have failed, because they did not consider this basic fact. Achieving their own goals is not necessarily the intention with which partners enter the collaborative effort, but they may well end up following this strategy. We start this paper with a brief description of what can be considered a typical case of ‘successful failure’ in a triple helix organization. We then review the literature regarding reasons for success or failure of triple helix organizations. We find that transparency and credible sanctions for self-interested behaviour are important requirements for successful triple helix arrangements. We then use notions from cybernetics and organizational design to develop basic rules for the design of triple helix arrangements. Basically, these rules and arrangements aim to ensure that self-interest and common purpose will concur. PB - Talent First Network CY - Ottawa VL - 9 UR - timreview.ca/article/1283 IS - 11 U1 -
