Factors for innovation ecosystem frameworks: Comprehensive organizational aspects for evolution

This article aims to identify the organizational factors in innovation ecosystem frameworks beyond scientific, technological, and economic aspects, including cultural, social, and organizational ones that have impacted the relational complexity of ecosystem development. Diverse regions worldwide seek to establish and evolve their innovation ecosystem frameworks rather than following others' references. The initial step in addressing the models and guidelines is to understand the inherent factors and identify other relevant ones capable of helping regions to achieve a higher maturity level. This article reviews the scientific literature and analyzes developments through a qualitative state of knowledge under certain organizational framework factors in ecosystems. The essential or inherent factors are separated into organizational actors, innovation and entrepreneurship chains, public and private funding, and appreciation of relevant organizational behavioral factors seeking effective relations, including collaboration and positive relationships, alliances and governance, human and social capital, and culture, which can be greatly influenced by regional societal behavioral habits. The development process demands constant learning and understanding of factors impacting the ecosystem's dynamics and performance. Trans-factorial framework models are necessary for future research to facilitate ecosystem evolution, incorporating methods, and deep technologies for a complex institutional network that considers behavior and social aspects.
