What is Open Innovation?

“Open innovation is a paradigm that assumes that firms

can and should use external ideas as well as internal

ideas, and internal and external paths to market, as the

firms look to advance their technology”

walls of your company - to suppliers, universities, produ-

cers of complementary products and services, and other

firms - to identify and capitalize on new opportunities for
