the data shows that the EU is still the main destination in the world, representing 1/4 of FDI inflows worldwide, twice the level of the US or China.

The most recent data (2011) is consistent with the overall finding of FDI data, namely of the EU's slightly falling but persisting world lead.

Exploring the impact of open innovation on national systems of innovation.pdf

Given that the innovating firm is at the core of national innovation systems, a better understanding of shifting innovation strategies at the firm level is of fundamental importance to the actions of policy-makers within the national innovation systems framework.

customers or specialists usually referred to as open source. These are all enablers of open innovation that coexist

most scholars share the core view that a country's NSI pursues some given goals,

corporate OI and its effect on NSI effectiveness therefore lie at the core of our analysis. Subsequently, we examine functions, processes or activities, following the functional approach.

this argument is consistent with the NSI core concept whereby multifarious efforts foster different kinds of collaboration and networking activity 39,40.

and bibliometric data 62. Generally speaking, such studies have detected most of the factors and mechanisms influencing the effectiveness of systems.

including blogs and internet-based communities 38. A typical example of using social resources to innovate is the popular phenomenon of open source software 71 and the current Threadless Community 72

revealing‘a third model'that draws upon extensive social resources to create valuable public knowledge. This model is termed the‘private-collective'model by von Hippel et al. 71

OI thereby generates a unique way of eliciting and coordinating the efforts of scattered individuals in an internet-oriented knowledge base.

such as the growing online social networks and other collaborative communities for knowledge exploration 36,94. Moreover, little work has been done on downstream networks exploiting existing knowledge 91.3.13.

Online social networks: Enlarging the knowledge exploration landscape The OI model stresses the importance of using a broad range of sources for innovation and commercialisation activities by firms.

Online social networks are used frequently by firms as one of these channels but NSI scholars have not heeded them enough to date 95.

An illustrative case of online social networks is the trend towards open source software 71. An oft-given example is the Linux Foundation.

Open source involves collaboration between firms, suppliers, customers, and policy-makers of related products to pool software R&d and generate shared technology.

Instead of the traditional extrinsic motivations, external innovators have strong intrinsic motivations such as reputation, fame, intellectual challenge, fun,

and interest 72. More recently, various online communities and hosted service webs facilitating co-operation

and knowledge-sharing among innovating firms, customers, and other interested parties, have been recorded in the literature 94,96.

Social online networks, such as open source software communities, offer valuable benefits for society by encouraging community members to share their knowledge.

One way for policy-makers to elicit social knowledge is by building a wide range of internet-based platforms to bridge business sectors

Online social networks may solve problems for current business development or pool ideas 97 for future business development.

and profit-seeking organisations are linked up in online social networks. Individuals are assigned carefully to certain communities, for example, those serving a given sector.

leading Chinese telecommunications company CIOS Subject matter experts See demographics for a full overview of the research methodology.

Social media was in its infancy. For the CIOS I worked with, smartphones essentially provided email on the move and little else.

Cloud computing was hardly on the radar. For any CIOS wanting to introduce an innovative new application,

one of the first steps would be to build the necessary infrastructure internally. In today's more digital world

using social media platforms. Staff members wonder why their work tools aren't all available as mobile apps,

To do so, Born to be digital explores three core areas: How CIOS with the widest remit

and greatest responsibility those in highly IT-intensive industries differ from their peers What lessons CIOS can take from their peers who are leading the digital transformation efforts in terms of their core tenets and mindset

and greater influence About this report 4 Born to be digital 51%53%67%38%strongly agree that they are taking the lead in pioneering new digital approaches within their business. of CIOS within ITINTENSIVE industries are engaged highly on core strategic issues

IT-intensive industries Digital technologies including social media, the cloud, data analytics and mobile are rapidly emerging as disruptive forces for businesses across all industries, from retailers and banks through to carmakers and energy companies.

They are fundamentally changing the ways in which consumers interact with these companies, while also opening up new business models at the heart of these firms.

Most revealingly, a core subset of this group of IT-intensive IT leaders those who are engaged most strategically in their jobs were seen to stand out from their peers in terms of both influence and satisfaction.

Companies investing the biggest share of their overall revenue in IT typically IT companies, telecommunications firms,

Nearly 4 in 10 (38%)of CIOS in IT-intensive industries are engaged highly in core strategic issues delivering transformation

For example, these individuals have a close focus on the front office and innovation: 65%are engaged highly in helping develop new products

six core traits Our research shows that the elite CIOS leading digital transformation in their businesses differ in their mindset and thinking in six key ways.

a core set of digital technologies including mobile, social, the cloud and big data are transforming the way companies

and their customers interact. At the same time these technologies are releasing a wave of IT-led innovation,

This seems like a natural process within internet companies, which are born digital, but the digital transformation is now spreading rapidly to enable organizations of all shapes and sizes to reinvent themselves.

At Nykredit, a Scandinavian bank, half of the customer interactions now come via mobile devices explains CIO Lars Mathiesen, up from almost nothing just a couple of years ago.

Its new Kindle tablet, for example, has dedicated a button that connects users to a helpline attendant via video chat, bringing a human element back into a routine support function.

and transfer the data onto a smart phone to send to a health care provider. This is an example of how technology contributes to generate new revenues for our firm,

which are delivered largely direct to consumers via the internet, rather than through traditional retail channels.

The rise of the digital business A core set of digital technologies mobile, social, the cloud and data, among others are transforming companies at both an operational and a strategic level.

There are three core changes here: 3 1. Using digital to enhance traditional business models, such as moving from selling products to providing services Streetcar and Xerox are two examples 2. Transforming existing business models to offer new digital services such as 100flowers selling via Facebook

3. Inventing wholly new types of business models from virtual currencies in online games, to others selling its digital data In many cases,

digital has moved technology toward becoming the front end of the spear rather than the tail feathers,

as the CTO or chief data officer? In many respects, this depends on CIOS themselves, argues Bob Sydow, Americas IT Advisory Leader at EY,

and systems of engagement (revenue-generating and firmly in the front office). Exceptional CIOS can play both of these roles,

such as new interaction technologies like Google glass, he says. But Herz says the firm was originally set up like a standard IT organization because of its strong focus on sales, marketing and logistics.

To reset this, Herz has been given a direct mandate from the board to be an active participant in core strategic decisions.

I must manage to establish our firm as a software company and, if we can do that,

This is especially apparent in a core set of sectors including technology companies, banks and life sciences firms that already spend a high proportion of their revenue ON IT.

Section 2 It's easy to pick Facebook as a truly digital business. But there are companies of all sizes that are embracing digital,

This focus captures many of the firms that are using IT at the very core of their business banks, pharmaceutical companies, telecommunications firms, media houses and, of course,

what is common across all these companies is that IT is a core boardroom topic,

Technology (including software, hardware, IT services and e-commerce) Telecommunications Banking Media and entertainment Other Pharmaceutical and biotechnology 16%20%7%15%20%22%IT-intensive industry CIOS refers to the CIOS surveyed for this report,

from those sectors that have higher than average ratios of IT spending as a proportion of total revenue.

The computer code facilitates the commitments we make to clients, so the technology environment is strategically important to building

IBM's global-local IT transformation Diego Calegari Spanish South american CIO Executive, IBM As might be expected of a leading technology brand,

IBM is engaged deeply with digital. The company is transforming itself across the business including HR, sales and all other functions around a set of global tools based on digital technologies such as the cloud.

While its global CIO leads this drive by setting the global strategy and driving the overall rollout,

One such CIO is Diego Calegari of IBM South america: We are in the middle of this shift,

but the next phase of our local transformation will be to focus closely on mobile for our market,

He's now more closely engaged with the front office of the business, acts as the link between the firm's global IT strategy and its local implementation,

This recognition of the need for a broader palette of skills to draw upon, beyond any core IT competencies, is reflected also in the choices that many IT-intensive industry CIOS make with regard to their education and job experience,

This is true internally, where they have weaker links with core figures such as the CEO or CFO,

or the two within telecommunications. Much progress remains to be made, but the IT sector is clearly doing

leading implementation of digital technologies such as cloud, mobile and analytics IT-intensive industry CIOS are more likely to hold a seat in the executive management team,

We find these attributes to be closest to the core set of skills and capabilities needed to drive the digital transformation,

what best enable CIOS to deliver on core business changes, such as the digital transformation now underway. 20 Born to be digital Six distinctive traits of digital-ready CIOS:

Bob Sydow, Americas IT Advisory Leader at EY, notes that one of the core capabilities needed for digital-ready CIOS is an intimate knowledge of the firm's business architecture,

Born to be digital 21 At the global software company SAP, for example, Americas CIO Michael Golz is clear on how digital has transformed the inner workings of the business.

the amount of automation and data-driven information that they use in their daily business is magnitudes bigger than just a couple of years ago,

the amount of automation and data-driven information that they use in their daily business is magnitudes bigger than just a couple of years ago.

or considering how social media can be used to reinvent customer service, and uncovering new data-driven insights.

My job is to find interesting new ideas and innovations, and bring them back to the CEO to discuss which of them could fit into our business,

Ru, the Russian internet communication and entertainment company. We don't trade in oil; we trade in innovation,

mobile and analytics within the business, compared with just 51%of IT-intensive industry CIOS. All CIOS focus on issues relating to business performance and IT budgets,

I spend at least 30%of my time on innovation, remarks the CIO of a major telecommunications operator in China,

Her work in using mobile and analytics to drive greater sales is representative of where this role is headed (see next trait for more).

Anonymous, CIO, leading Chinese telecommunications company Why CIOS and CMOS must learn to love each other not only at SAP Michael Golz, Americas CIO, SAP Jonathan Becher, CMO, SAP Case study Michael

respectively The americas CIO and global CMO at SAP, believe their functions have changed so fundamentally with the advent of digital technologies such as big data, mobile,

social media and cloud that marketing and IT have no choice but to forge ever closer relationships.

The single biggest trend for marketing is to be oriented very data, he says. Of course, this raises specific challenges in the interface between marketing,

whether it's data consumption, acquisition or analytics, people expect answers immediately. To deal with this, IT

The CIO of a major Chinese insurance company explains how her firm is working closely with the front office to give them the mobile tools they need to boost sales.

and mining of data captured, to gain greater customer insights and design more effective sales campaigns.

As a result, the executive management team has tasked now her with applying data analytics to generate new customer insights

and both its front-and back-end processes, says the CIO of a major Chinese telecommunications operator.

and making sure the front office understands what's possible. They also need to think differently in terms of integrating digital activities into their analog activities.

whether it's data consumption, acquisition or analytics, people expect answers immediately. To deal with this, IT

says Diego Calegari, Spanish South american CIO Executive at IBM, who explains that true storytelling requires a deep grasp of the core of the business and how it works,

in order to explain how it can change in future. SAP Americas CIO Michael Golz cites examples of CIOS he meets in his peer-to-peer customer conversations,

like the aerospace CIO who explains convincingly the impact of harnessing in flight sensor data to transform their business model,

or the medical device CIO who articulates the impact of information technology on their products to improve the well being of patients,

These CIOS clearly know their industry business processes, the value of collecting data from their products,

the business around monetizing that data, and creating value-added services. They know how to explain these new business models,

It's about your ability to go head-to-head with business executives in discussions about IT's role in changing the core of the business.

Diego Calegari, Spanish South american CIO Executive, IBM External Internal 26 Born to be digital Swanepoel has engaged sometimes external management consultants to help bring a fresh perspective on

what the core of the narrative ought to be: If you are working in IT all day,

The use of social media can also help to build a greater presence both internally and externally,

UCB's Herman de Prins, who prefers to keep work-related topics out of social media, uses his passion for cycling as a source for non-work-related updates and links them to technology,

For example, UCB's IT team deployed a new flash memory-based system that boosted the overall performance of the company's statistical programming by a factor of 20.

rather than on trying to squeeze limited gains from the company's core IT systems.

but the real spending is being redirected into platforms, around analytics, big data, mobility and the cloud or whichever area has the highest benefit for your company,

Like an ipad that even two-year olds can use by pure intuition, the success of digital transformation is defined by the simplicity of it plus a layer of abstraction.

but digging deeper reveals a much stronger core satisfaction with their positions and prospects. Across all elements of their jobs, they express greater satisfaction with their work than their IT-intensive industry peers do.

which is given vital how much this is a core part of their job: 60%find this strongly satisfying,

Anonymous, CIO, leading Chinese telecommunications company Darryl West, CIO, Barclays Group 32 Born to be digital Digital-ready CIOS are willing to leave their home turf.

The CIO of a major Chinese telecommunications firm explains how, having initially graduated in engineering, her career path involved her becoming the head of a non-IT department,

whether from their peers, external consultants, the print media, online webcasts or others. They are interested strongly in building their career upon management skills.

For example, Jeanette Horan, CIO at American IT company IBM, did a bachelor's degree in mathematics, before later adding an MBA to her qualifications.

Similarly, the CIO of a leading Chinese bank holds degrees in electrical engineering and in software

In the telecommunications sector, one in five of these leading CIOS hold a Phd on top of other qualifications.

Anders Thulin, the CIO at Swedish telecommunications firm Ericsson, had worked in consulting, at Mckinsey & Company.

the CIO at US computer company Oracle, is also the Vice-chairman of the Utah Technology Council,

And this is even more prevalent in telecommunications where 60%have taken up their current roles since 2010.

CIOS have been focused largely on application and infrastructure delivery, ahead of data. But a shift into the cloud reduces the emphasis on the application front,

and makes data far more important again. Digital transformation requires to radically simplify the business and to change the mindset around product development.

it's a much more involved decision to know when to do the same for a company's core financial systems,
