Popis Although some researchers tried to differentiate the term knowledge ecosystem (KE) from other types of the ecosystem (such as business, innovation) the exact meaning and definition of the term remains still blurred. The indefiniteness of KE is caused partially by the fact that not much research that would specifically mention KE has been published. In WoS, only 41 articles that use the term knowledge ecosystem in the title were indexed, and only 17 from them investigate KE in the knowledge management context. When searching not only in title but more broadly in the topic, 88 articles were found, and 28 were eligible. Thus, to truly investigate KE, the focus should be on other management disciplines which are interrelated with KE through knowledge intensity. Customer Knowledge Management or Closed Loop Supply Chain are disciplines that will be used in this study to suggest how KE can be conceptualised for further research. This paper is theoretical, and the main output is a conceptual model.
