The transition to Industry 5.0 marks a paradigm shift towards innovation ecosystems that prioritize human-centricity, sustainability, and resilience. Unlike Industry 4.0’s emphasis on digitalization and automation, Industry 5.0 integrates societal and environmental values into the heart of innovation strategies. This paper advances the understanding of innovation ecosystem governance by introducing the concept of the "Bridge Maker" - a strategic intermediary that plays a pivotal role in aligning diverse stakeholders, fostering collaborative governance, and embedding Industry 5.0 values systemically across ecosystems. Grounded in insights from Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) theory, Open Innovation (OI), and recent developments in ecosystem orchestration and governance, the Bridge Maker is positioned as a crucial enabler of ecosystem adaptability and success.
