Dynamic business environment needs easier and faster scientific research approach for its growth and development. Therefore, this paper explores the evolutionary mechanism of dynamic capabilities and intellectual capital by investigating how these theories convergence and reveal integrability towards innovativeness by a systematic literature review of 223 articles from 2000 till 2021. The findings reveal that the dynamic capabilities convergence in many aspects with intellectual capital dimensions becoming irreplaceable assets to support firms acquire, renew, and reconfigure resources to conquer its own development puzzles and dynamic knowledge ecosystems during its evolution. The intellectual capital is an important resource for dynamic capabilities and vice-versa.
