Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to advance the existing research into the synergistic concepts of the virtual organisation, Living Labs and Digital Ecosystems. The instrument described in this paper enables organisations to test their degree of sustainability internally from an operational point of view. The paper contends that synergies that exist between terms such as virtual organisations, living labs and digital ecosystems can be examined as a means of understanding what it means for an organisation to be sustainable; operationally.
