This study investigates a microfoundation of the structural change of business ecosystem. While previous studies point out environmental shocks and subsequent entrepreneurial behaviors, we focus on the effect of several actors' interactions within the ecosystem. By using the concept of Weick (1979)' s enactment, we build up the chain reaction framework of multiplayers' interpretation and action. Through an in-depth case study of the transition of Silicon Valley ecosystem from an IPO-centered model to a M&A-centered one, we illustrates how startups, established business companies, venture capitals and research institutes interact each other and how those interactions effect on ecosystem transition.
