In fact ecosystem view could be along with Supply chain. Business ecosystems is introduced by Moor,1994 . in this theory all the organizations try to define  their visions and strategies in according to benefits of all ecosystem members. because they think their life is depended to other members life. and exactly it could be same as natural ecosystems.
