Points dealt with
  • open innovation and open business models: how to implement it?
Innovation in many large companies is shifting towards an open model, where organizations can and should make use of the internal and external knowledge/ideas’ flow, as well as of direct or indirect access to markets. In this way, innovations are nowadays the result of collaboration between different actors such as universities, research centers, SME, multinationals, public and private investors, authorities and final users. This lecture focuses on how companies implement open innovation and open BM strategies.
  • successfully managing IP sharing in open innovation strategies
Intellectual property is crucial to capture value in both in closed and open innovation models. However, in open innovation sharing IP can lead to new ways to capture value from your and others IP. We apply this using the IMEC case.
  • how large firms can collaborate with small start-up companies?
  • the future of open and collaborative innovation
More and more companies get involved in open innovation and the market for external technology sourcing becomes crowded. Therefore companies must rise their competencies to profit from open innovation: They must link more closely their external sourcing of technology to business strategy, improve the connection making skills, gain the reputation of preferred partners, and develop strategies to better capture value from open innovation. Where is open innovation heading to in the near future?
