Goal – Contribution of the Paper• The aim of the explorative study is to understand the role of crowdfunding in the
development of the fanbase using data from two recent cases of competing business ecosystems.
• We conducted an event study that employed social set analysis (SSA) of Facebook data to uncover and better understand the users’ interactions and brand associations before, during and after a crowdfunding campaign event.
• Key contribution of the study is the introduction of a new data source on co-creative interaction between companies and their customers, as well as an approach to support the study of ecosystems from a customer perspective.

Propositions based on Results
Proposition 1. Crowdfunding increases fanbase engagement. Proposition 2. Crowdfunding contributes to sustainability of product brand associations.
Proposition 3. Crowdfunding speeds up the evolution of business ecosystems
Future Research (Data requirements)
1. Data that represents the interconnections and interactions between individual social media actors
2. Data from the crowdfunding platforms representing the individual investments both for the focal campaign(s) under investigations as well as related campaigns

Implications on Ecosystem Research• Lead users helping to co-create value with companies
• Ecosystem complementors co-offer new products to create additional value
• Complementors can develop products (Case makers in case of Jolla)
• The kinds of insights stemming bottom up from consumers complement the other novel views into business and innovation ecosystem interconnections, including Deals and Alliances, Executives and Finance, Angels and Start-ups

Implications for Decision/Policy-Making• Presented approach allows for close-to-real-time system-level view to
emerging business and innovation ecosystems - valuable insights for foresight, decision making and impact measurement
• Crowdfunding per se introduces new interesting means for policy making:
first experiments in giving matching government/public funding for successful crowdfunding campaigns taking place in Finland.
