Abstract:
Digitalization and Sustainability are two global megatrends, that lead to a changing world. Companies are therefore adapting their business models towards these transformation necessities. To adapt successfully to these alterations, it is important to know the success factors of both the business model types. However, there is a lack of a comparative overview of both the success factors for the included business model types, such as sustainable and digital. A literature review was conducted to investigate the similarities between these two types. As a result, success factors of digital and sustainable business models have been identified through the literature review, including factors that are mentioned for both business model types and factors that are found exclusively for one type of business model. The factors can be tested and evaluated afterward in living labs. The knowledge about these factors can support entrepreneurs in the development or innovation process of their sustainable and digital business models. This paper deals with adaption, e.g. what success factors are needed for companies to adapt their business models. Here, topics from the Adaptive Conference are addressed, such as adaptive economic applications.
