This paper studies business ecosystem phenomena, focusing especially on the spatial (geographical) context within the health and life sciences industry. In addition, business ecosystem evolution and change dynamics are addressed. This study is literature-based; the findings and analysis provide a research frame for forthcoming empirical studies. Despite increasing attention, business ecosystem literature is still relatively immature, and previous studies have mostly focused on software and the information technology (IT) industries. Hence, this paper provides new insights into the business ecosystem concept in a novel contextTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza na Primorskem, Fakulteta za management
