Abstract
Entrepreneurship in the form of innovation-driven enterprises (IDEs) focuses on creating wealth through pursuing global opportunities to promote innovations. Successful IDEs usually follow a platform business model (PBM) that is conducive to the establishment of digital platforms and ecosystems. At the same time, the peer-to-peer decentralized nature of Blockchain seems to provide the perfect infrastructure for the implementation of the PBM. Blockchain is a decentralized and distributed network that ensures data integrity. Thus, the platform infrastructure provided by Blockchain promises to enable sustainable PBMs with positive network effects and unprecedented business growth.
