The objective of the study was to analyze the determinants of open innovation adoption among the Ghanaian hospitality SMEs. A cross‐sectional survey using a 5‐point Likert scale questionnaire was used to randomly collect data from 530 managers within the hospitality industry in Ghana. Using SmartPLS software 3.2.8 to analyze primary data, the results show that all six determining factors have a significant impact on open innovation adoption in the hospitality industry. Specifically, competition, human skills, managerial style and IT infrastructure have a positive and significant relationship with open innovation adoption. However, cost and cultural factors had a negative but significant influence on open innovation adoption. The study also provides managers with practical ways of adopting open innovation in the Ghanaian hospitality industry.

This research work adds to extant writings on open innovation by evaluating the factors that impact open innovation adoption in the hospitality industry in Ghana. The research investigates withal the moderating function of ICT infrastructure in the correlation among human skills, managerial style and competition and open innovation. Data collected from 530 managers and owners in the Ghanaian hospital industry, in a cross-sectional observation employed on a five-point Likert scale survey, is analyzed and employed in the validation of the study’s empiric and theoretic contributions. We employed SmartPLS software 3.2.8 to investigate primary data and the outcome indicates that the six determining factors significantly impact on open innovation adoption in the hospitality business. There are, particularly, positive and significant correlations between competition, human skills, management style, IT infrastructure and open innovation adoption. Nonetheless, both cultural and cost factors have negative, yet statistically significant impact on open innovation adoption. In Ghana’s hospitality SMEs, the ICT infrastructure has proven to moderate a positive correlation betwixt open innovation adoption and competition. Similarly, ICT infrastructure moderates the correlation betwixt managerial style and open innovation adoption. Moreover, ICT infrastructure moderates a positive correlation between human skills and open innovation adoption in the Ghanaian hospitality SMEs.

Open Innovation is a phenomenon that has become increasingly important due to found shorter innovation cycles, industrial R&D escalating costs as well as in the dearth of resources. Researchers have suggested various kinds of practices and ways to categorized them. However, most of prior studies only used some of the practices to measured open innovation, but the measurements were very generic as some practices are broadly defined, and the list of open innovation activities not included new activities and completed list of practices. Hence, it is crucial to identify a new list of open innovation practices and study on similar practices in developing countries to help their companies understand open innovation and its practices as well. This study reviewing prior studies on open innovation adoption published between 2003 and March 2014 and identified 36 different practices. Therefore, we created a new list of open innovation practices that cover most of strategies and practices mentioned in prior studies. This study used quantitative methodology, 400 high rank executives manager of Malaysia SMEs participated and completed the survey and further analyzed using the appropriate statistical procedures. The results indicated that Malaysian SMEs use three core processes of open innovation including coupled, outside-in, and inside-out practices in their open innovation processes, respectively.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to verify and improve the framework assessing the evolution and importance of the technological, human, social and financial resources of an Indian research-based spin-off (RBSO) throughout its four stages of development by Vohora et al. (2004). Design/methodology/approach The open innovation (OI) phenomenon is spreading among public organizations. One of the OI practices used by the public research centers to market their technologies is to set up new business entities called RBSOs. Many studies have focused on spin-offs but there are still some gaps. To overcome the existing limitations, the authors built a framework which they tested on three previous case studies. Findings The results obtained show how a parent organization and its incubator can play fundamental roles in creating and developing a successful RBSO. This is done by supplying managerial staff and providing access to skills, funds and other material and immaterial resources. Research limitations/implications The limitations of this study are related to the sectoral and geopolitical factors of the single case analyzed. For this reason, the observations that emerge should be supported by other empirical analyses. Originality/value The findings of this study can offer a better understanding of the spin-off life to managers, researchers, public organizations and government agencies. They can learn how to improve policies and practices of technology transfer and strengthen the national industrial system.
