A review and analysis of the business model innovation literature

Abstract

Business model innovation (BMI) is an emerging field that has attracted much attention from scholars and practitioners. However, the literature on BMI is fragmented and inconsistent, lacking a comprehensive and systematic framework. This study aims to fill this gap by conducting a literature review of 272 peer-reviewed articles on BMI published between 2010 and 2022. We analyze the articles based on six dimensions: antecedents, processes, types, barriers, outcomes, and moderators/mediators of BMI. We synthesize the findings and propose an integrated theoretical model that captures the complex relationships among these dimensions. We also identify several research gaps and directions for future studies. This study contributes to the BMI literature by providing a clearer understanding of this phenomenon and offering practical guidance for various types of businesses.
