Whilst researching the structure, organization and benefits of business eco-systems, I came across two great books that I used as reference to create a POC for dynamic contracts:

• Platform Revolution by Jeremy G. Philips
• Platform Scale by Sangeet P. Choudary
• Platform Ecosystems by Amrit Tiwana

For the research I looked first into:

• The value proposition of eco-systems
• The opportunities and evolution of eco-systems
• The building blocks to create eco-systems            

These all can be visualized by Platform Canvas Model i.e. a business model canvas for eco-systems.

A second part is on:

• Eco-systems barriers and challenges
• Where is the money or revenue in eco-systems

Finally we dive into:

• The high-level architecture
• The required micro-services and API’s
• Business process overview and an architecture for dynamic contracts
