This paper offers a framework for understanding the dynamics formation of complementary industry convergence and substitution industry convergence from the respective of industry evolution, according to convergence may involve changes in competitive and/or complementary relations between two or more industries. Based on the characteristics of ICT-intensive industry, this paper describes the relationship between industry convergence, industry symbiosis and industry evolution. Through the evolution modeling of industry system and analyzing of symbiosis stability, we find that complementary industry convergence and substitution industry convergence occur when subsystems cooperate mutually or the degree of substitution isn’t strong, and complementary integration mechanisms dominate substitution mechanisms. In the complementary industry convergence, converging industry and original industry are symbiotic, and the industry system has more room for development.
