• Bibliometric, topic modeling, and qualitative analyses are used to review the literature. • A total of 684 articles from leading management and business journals are analyzed. • Main theories utilized to appraise the field of digital innovation are identified. • An overarching multi-level framework for digital innovation is proposed. • Future research trajectories are proposed to advance digital innovation discussion. The paper investigates the landscape of digital innovation publications in management and business journals. By integrating bibliometric, topic modeling, and qualitative analyses, we introduce a novel approach to synthesize the foundational, current, and future topics. Analyzing 684 documents, we first identify three foundational topics: digital transformation, digital platform ecosystems, and digital innovation foundations . Second, we reveal ten current topics: digital business model innovation, digital process innovation, digital strategy, digital product innovation, digital capabilities, open innovation, digital platform ecosystems, digital transformation, digital service innovation, and digital innovation adoption . Third, we analyze the theoretical perspectives and foundations that underpin these topics through qualitative interpretation. The paper contributes to digital innovation literature by providing an overarching multi-level framework that links contextual conditions, mechanisms, and outcomes across individual, organizational, and industry levels. Furthermore, it identifies key underlying theories that shape the field and proposes a future research agenda for multidisciplinary theoretical bridging.
