DIGITAL SOCIAL INNOVATIONThe_Process_of_Social_Innovation.pdf

For all of these reasons, traditional business models of innovation are limited only of use and much of the most important innovation of the next few decades is set to follow patterns of social innovation rather than innovation patterns developed in sectors such as information technology or insurance.

Indeed, the Internet is now generating a host of new business models that are set to have enormous impact in the social field. 7 Other possibilities may derive from new organizational forms,

They believe the living labs'business model, still heavily dependent on public funding, contributes to limiting their expansion.

it describes a web-based business model that harnesses the creative solutions of a distributed network of individuals through what amounts to an open call for proposals.

the business model of crowdsourcing is already being applied in nonprofit and government projects. The crowd in those projects are the smart citizens.

lending and investing are the four funding forms or underlying business models by which the crowdfunding platforms can be subdivided.

In this respect, the report explores the two main types of business models that are in place: 1) app as a product,

there are only a limited number of firms willing to participate in a living lab. This business model limits its expansion.

Furthermore, the Digital economy is now mainly based on business models that aggregate, analyse and sell personal data, turning personal data in what has been defined as the oil of the Internet economy.

Most users have accepted exploitative business models based on privacy infringement and often hidden surveillance mechanisms in exchange for free services.

New business models based on sharing resources (such as energy, talent and tools), fair distribution of the fruits of collective intelligence, trust and reputation should be experimented

Just considering the services or the business models, this means that in some ecosystems new services will appear,

in others the same services will be modified to be adapted to local conditions, regulations, business models, in yet others the services will disappear from lack of use.

In other words, having embraced a holistic approach that highlights the dependence of the business models and interactions and of their formalisation into software services on their socioeconomic and cultural context,

Digital Ecosystems surely require a variety of business models to be viable and sustainable in the long run. Some of these models will be based mainly on a new Exchange Economy characterised by peer production behaviour to become integrated with the Gift Economy. 29 In the gift economy a immediate remuneration is sought not,
