The Reconfiguration of Mobile Service Provision: Towards Platform Business Models Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Based on a series of case studies extending to several ICT domains and industries, it
has been convincingly argued that 'platform leadership' strategies are appropriate for
firms aspiring to leadership in unbundled, or modular markets (Gawer, 2000; Gawer
& Cusumano, 2002). While the relationship between technical modularity and market
modularity is not a straightforward one (Ernst, 2005), it is clear that technical

Platform Business Models for Smart Cities: From Control and Value to Governance and Public Value Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This article presents a theoretical framework for the analysis of platform business models that involve public actors, and city governments in particular, in the value network. It starts from an established business model framework and expands it to include an additional set of param- eters required to successfully perform an analysis of the business models of new (mostly digital) services offered by cities. It then applies this framework to ...
An Advertisement-based Platform Business Model for MobileOperators Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The environment of mobile service delivery is undergoing significant
changes when it comes to business models and the organisation of the
value network. Different actors in the field strive to exercise control
within the business model by applying diverging strategies. By
elaborating the concept of gatekeeping roles this paper will highlight
how major actors currently vie for dominance. It provides a brief

Business Model Scenarios for an Open Service Platform for Multi-Modal ElectricVehicle Sharing Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Triggered by environmental concerns, smart
mobility solutions have expanded in recent years. This includes
the development of an electric vehicle market, car- and bike
sharing concepts and better route planning systems for public
transportation. The fusion of these approaches opens the door
for new business models for cooperating industries in the field
of multi-modal electric mobility. This paper provides a
selection of ...

Structural and Quantitative Evaluation of Multi-Actor Business Models for Mobile Service Platforms Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This paper introduces and characterizes four potential business model constellations for mobile service platforms, each time referring to the ownership and control of three crucial gatekeeper roles. It identifies platform competition and multi-actor mediation and coordination as the crucial competitive concern for mobile service platforms. It goes on to outline and illustrate a quantitative approach to evaluating multi-actor business models, ...
A Typology of Business Models for Mobile Service Platforms Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Based on platform theory, this paper discusses the concept of platform ambiguity in mobile service provision, arguing that fundamental uncertainty exists not only about the boundaries and interfaces, but about the nature itself of a mobile service platform. It refers to the concept of gatekeeper roles, and demonstrates how these roles are instrumental in defining the strategy of a platform, both in terms of opening up information resources and ...
