As the disruptive scenarios emerge and evolve, I see them coalescing in the form of multi-industry business ecosystems. An ecosystem, in scientific terms, is a group of living or non-living things that depends upon each other to thrive. A business ecosystem is a self-organizing network (typically enabled by e-commerce and/or social technologies) whose participants exchange value around a common purpose. Because every industry today can be considered an ecosystem, the question is how those industries will evolve as a result of the disruptive scenarios.
