Review

`From large organisations seeking to develop open innovation as a capability through to universities and IP organisations seeking to act as catalysts for open innovation and then onto networks to enable the connections, this is a thorough review of most of the drivers on the topic. Linking current practice to innovation research, this shows what is new, what is not and provides theoretical frameworks for the use and limitations of open innovation. Although clearly written for the academic community, this is a useful source of reference for many of those in multiple organisations seeking to take advantage of open innovation opportunities.

Product Description

This collection investigates the phenomenon of "Open Innovation,", in which firms draw on research and development that may lie outside their own boundaries. The book's contributors link the practice of innovation to the established body of innovation rsearch, showing what's new and what's familiar in the process. Looking in depth at a process recently adopted by such leading firms as Intel and Cisco, this book will lead the intellectual debate in an increasingly important area.
