Although understanding the value and importance of platforms and ecosystems across various industries and domains has grown significantly over the years, there is still a paucity of research examining the dynamic and evolutionary aspects of platform and ecosystem management (e.g., de Reuver 2018; Gawer 2020). Building on last year's experience, we seek contributions that focus on the "dynamic" aspects of platforms and ecosystems. How do platforms and ecosystems emerge and what are the mechanisms driving their evolution? How do platforms and ecosystems adapt to changes in the technological, social, economic, ecologic, or political environment? How can specific platform and ecosystem actors succeed within these dynamics and manage even unintended consequences?
