Abstract

The food supply chain argues as one of the most complex and challenge systems and plays a major role in human societies for thousand years, but still faces some fundamental challenges on the data storage, forward and access. Current research indicates that blockchain is a promising technology for handling these challenges, as various nodes (actors) are connected through the network with efficiency, feasibility, and trust. However, as a novel technology, many mysteries are still waiting for discover urgently, such as information sharing, dynamic context, and emerging network scale. This study adopted absorptive capacity, as the theoretical lens, investigates a blockchain network in a longitudinal perspective, which contributes to the IS literature by providing an account of the blockchain network from the knowledge processing perspective by considering the interplay among the actors and uncover the dynamics of absorptive capacities in a loose connected network.
