- The same structural reading that tells an ecologist a pollinator and its single host plant are jointly endangered tells a procurement officer that a sole-source component and the product built around it constitute a coupled fragility, the kind of interdependence Adner and Kapoor (2010) showed governs whether ecosystem partners create or destroy value for one another.
This sourceShows how the structure of interdependence between a focal firm and its component suppliers and complementors governs whether ecosystem partners create or destroy value for one another (upstream component challenges help technology leaders; downstream complement challenges erode their gains) — the coupled-fragility logic underlying single-supplier and platform-complementor lock-in.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Adner and Kapoor's abstract backs the general thesis that the location of interdependence determines whether external innovation challenges help or erode a focal firm's gains; it says nothing about coupled fragility or sole-source lock-in.
“We identify a key asymmetry that results from the location of challenges relative to a focal firm—greater upstream innovation challenges in components enhance the benefits that accrue to technology leaders, while greater downstream innovation challenges in complements erode these benefits.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
