Abstract

As an effective supporter to promote innovation， innovation ecosystem has increasingly become an important research topic in both academic and business community. By sorting out English literatures on innovation ecosystems included by the Web of Science core collection database between 2006 to 2021， the study finds that the following are current hotspot topic for innovation ecosystems research abroad： connotation， characteristics and composition， evolutionary motivation， process， mechanism and governance goal， and main subject and pattern. Moreover， it reveals that the emerging research directions for innovation ecosystem study are networking relationships and logic mechanisms of innovation ecosystem from complex system theory， evolution path and mechanism of innovation ecosystem from the perspective of dynamic capability， and relationships among innovation ecosystem entities in the context of digitalization. The future study should strengthen researches on innovation ecosystem governance based on Chinese governance context such as culture， trust， and informal institution.
