A holistic framework for analyzing spectrum licensing models— illustrated by local licensing for 5G and 6G networks
Building on insights from regulation analysis literature, this research proposes a novel holistic framework for analyzing spectrum licensing models and illustrates it with recent local spectrum licensing models that enable the deployment of local 5G and 6G mobile communications networks. The framework consists of three lenses of analysis: focus areas that cover the process, product, and outcomes of regulation; the licensing elements comprising th…
Balancing automation and augmentation in AI-enabled decision-making: A business model perspective from healthcare sector
Purpose The increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into organizational decision-making processes raises critical questions about whether decisions should be automated or augmented by human expertise. While prior research presents automation and augmentation as points on a continuum, less is known about their interplay. This study examines how organizations can balance decision-making automation and augmentation in data-intensive, …
Multi-perspective approach for developing sustainable 6G mobile communications
Digitalisation and the green transition are driving change to societies at large. These intertwined processes play a key role in the broader topic of sustainable development, which is making its way into different sectors of society. Sustainable development is not only about technology development but involves several business and regulatory decisions that have a fundamental impact on our future society. Information and communication technologies…
Legitimacy considerations in regulation for local mobile communication network business in Finland and the UK
The article explores the legitimacy of local 5G and upcoming 6G mobile communication networks in Europe. The paper paves the way for a new perspective for understanding the legitimacy of local 5G/6G mobile communication networks by applying the business model-based ecosystem perspective and legitimacy as a theoretical foundation. As regulations are expanding to consider the novel deployment model of local 5G and 6G mobile communication networks, …
Toward an integrated framework for developing European 6G innovation
This article contributes to the discussion on 6G and European policy development, outlining an integrated framework for Europe to benefit from 6G innovation in the future, both as a developer and user of 6G technologies. As 6G is envisioned as a general-purpose technology that can transform the whole of society, there is a need to adopt a broader perspective to innovation compared to earlier technology generations. This proposed framework compris…
Regulatory challenges and implications of the European electronic communications code (Eecc) for local mobile communication network business
Regulatory provisions pose legal constraints on deploying mobile communication networks and related services. Local 5G and upcoming 6G networks, particularly those that are independent of the big mobile network operators (MNOs), face new challenges due to the incoherent harmonization and implementation of the regulatory provisions and the standby approach undertaken by many EU member countries. This paper analyses the European Electronic Communic…
Smart city business model approach: The Role of Opportunities, Values, and Advantages
The purpose of this research is to explore the role of the business model approach in the smart city context by examining the business model antecedents: opportunities, values, and advantages. By applying the business model approach, we examine the dynamics of replicability, scalability, and sustainability of digital solutions in smart cities. Based on the participatory action research method, this study utilizes data collected during 2018–2020 f…
Generational differences in organizational leaders: An interpretive phenomenological analysis of work meaningfulness in the Nordic high-tech organizations
This paper analyzes the influences of generational differences in organizational leaders (founders) on work meaningfulness dynamics in the high-tech sector. Based on a novel interpretative phenomenological analysis of five Finnish case firms, we found that generational differences between leaders concerning work meaningfulness visibly existed. The differences manifested themselves in the form of different views concerning material well-being, hou…
Platform configurations for local and private 5G networks in complex industrial multi-stakeholder ecosystems
Data and connectivity platforms play a crucial role in the digitalization of different sectors of our society. In complex industrial multi-stakeholder ecosystem contexts connectivity and data platforms are increasingly becoming converged, and private, vertical-specific local 5G networks are emerging. For this context, we depict and analyze alternative configurations for converging connectivity and data platforms and propose appropriate management…
