Business Model Innovation and Dynamic Capabilities: a literature review based on a bibliometric analysis

This review article originates from the need of studying how firms can survive in the current business system, characterized by continuous changes and disruptions. Business model innovation (BMI) and Dynamic capabilities (DCs) are widely assumed to be crucial to overcome obstacles and changes ham- pering the survival of the firm. As the research on BMI and DCs have expanded in multiple directions, both jointly and not, we argue that a systematic process to identify and organize the trends present is re- quired. A bibliographic coupling analysis and a research focus parallelship network analysis let manage a large number of papers, dividing them in four clusters, and selecting the most relevant papers per each cluster. A systematic literature review of the theme emerged within each cluster will offer detailed future research directions on BMI and DCs in the areas of sustainability (and digitization), SMEs, open innovation, and servitization.
