Cover Story: This work aims to develop a conceptual model to support countries, institutions, and firms to achieve Agenda 2030 sustainability goals. There is a wide search for new models of organization to spread sustainability. Digital platforms are among those. Since digital platforms require coordination among multiple actors and interests, they may also be conceptualized as meta-organizations, less hierarchical than firms yet more tightly coupled than markets. However, managerial literature disregards this organizational lens. This work aims to fill this gap, providing a framework that explains why and how a digital platform ecosystem could configure a sustainable meta-organizational model and the main steps to build it. View this paper
