In the platform-based innovation ecosystem, the symbiotic evolution and interaction between the participating entities have drawn extensive attention. However, there is a lack of understanding of the co-specialization and co-innovation among members of the innovation ecosystem. This paper addresses this gap. In this paper, the collaborative innovation between a platform firm and different kinds of complementors, and its effects on the performance of the innovation ecosystem are simulated through an improved NK model. The result shows that the co-innovation performance between generalist complementors and the platform firm is generally outperformed than that between the specialist complementors and the platform firm. As the interdependencies between the complementary components get stronger, the innovation performance of the innovation ecosystem influenced by the interaction between different types of complementors and platform firms tend to be an inverted U-shape.
在平台型创新生态系统中，参与实体之间的共生演化和相互作用引起了广泛关注。然而，对于创新生态系统成员之间的共同专业化和共同创新，人们的理解还不够。本文针对这一差距展开研究。本文通过改进的 NK 模型，模拟了平台企业与不同类型互补者之间的协同创新及其对创新生态系统绩效的影响。研究结果表明，一般互补者与平台企业之间的共同创新绩效普遍优于专业互补者与平台企业之间的共同创新绩效。随着互补组件之间的相互依存度增强，不同类型互补者与平台企业相互作用对创新生态系统创新绩效的影响趋于倒 U 型。
