Description
Summary:This article aims at analysing the mechanisms by which a large Research Infrastructure, here a synchrotron, co-constructs the ecosystem to which it belongs and uses it in order to sustain and feed its own evolution dynamics. Our analysis relies on the study of the French synchrotron SOLEIL. We hypothesize that it is possible to analyse the business model of such an infrastructure, and more importantly to explain the mechanisms of its evolution. Evolution results both from processes of tension solving at the microeconomic level and from dynamics of competition and cooperation operating through the various communities at play within the ecosystem of synchrotrons.?
