- Exploration of platform ecosystems and their role in promoting sustainable development in various industries. One example is the maritime shipping industry. How can platformization at the sector level drive sustainability efforts?
- Open ecosystems. Examination of governance structures in open digital ecosystems, focusing on how they foster innovation, inclusivity, and participation. One relevant empirical setting could be the Wikimedia ecosystem and its various communities (e.g., small language groups, feminist collectives, environmentally-oriented communities), to understand how governance in open platforms balances autonomy, control, and collective decision-making.
These topics could be suitable for both a short and a long master’s thesis.
