Open Innovation - The Good, The Bad, The Uncertainties - Eliza Laura Coras.pdf

Within the study, our work highlights that open innovation in is impeded by risks related to technology, market place, collaboration among partners, financial sources availability, clients needs, workforce, knowledge and intellectual property rights.

a fundamental premise of open innovation is not all the smart people work for you, hence triggering the need to incorporate external knowledge into internal processes.

and talented external collaborators to work for the firm. However, due to geographical, cultural or merely strategic differences in the global market, the supply of quality labour may be inadequate for the firm.

Retention risk acts as a major constrain since turnover among work force can alter the quality of the partnerships and lead to major knowledge loss.

Within the research, our work highlights that companies are allured to enter external partnerships to enrich their knowledge base,

The drivers for practising open innovation need to change universities'behaviour and repositioning of their work in open innovation ecosystems.

The context for this work is Unesco's creative cities'network and the analytical approach behind it, elaborated through practical cases.

as well as the ongoing work of Finland's Energising Urban Ecosystems (EUE) research programme. Our focus is to explore how orchestration works in practice.

Open Innovation 2. 0, entrepreneurial discovery and societal innovation are key processes in this work and need to be orchestrated

and supported in diverse ways. Traditional management is organised often around meetings, planning sessions and workshops.
