The paper uses activity theory for understanding and managing the complexity involved in the transition of a product-service organization from closed to the technology-mediated open mode of innovation. In particular, activity theory is used to facilitate the alignment of the open innovation model adopted with the organization’s dominant argumentation scheme by developing nested representations of the innovation process in the traditional closed mode, as well as in the user-led innovation and user co-creation modes, associated with product- and service-provision operations, respectively. For all cases, we concentrate on the argumentation-in-innovation activity and its context. We arrive at insights about the process of Activity Based Analysis (ABA) in this endeavor and the issues raised through action research in a product-service firm in the food and beverages sector, aiming at adopting an open innovation strategy implemented in the innovation community mode.

Innovation Process Models With Emphasis on Open Innovation ModelThis article presents different models of innovation processes and focuses in particular on the open innovation. The empirical part is based on the findings on the innovation cooperation of enterprises in the EU and OECD (these data, among others, determine the open innovation). At the end of the article there is a case study of Nokia which implements the open innovation in its innovation activity. The aim of this article is to present the paradigm of the open innovation processes. This approach concentrates on sharing knowledge, i.e. making new solutions available to other units by means of e.g. license sale. The open innovation business model takes advantage of both internal and external sources of ideas without a fear that a company's own ideas when transferred to another organization will lead to the company's loss of profits coming from this idea. The formal framework of an organization is just a symbolic one and makes the flow of knowledge between the organization and its environment possible. The enterprises that adopt the open innovation strategy both enthusiastically develop ideas which were created by others as well as make their own ideas available to other organizations that find them more interesting.

Purpose: This study aims to contribute to the Innovation Models debate from a new perspective on the innovation process, more frequently discussed in a range from closed to open innovation model. Coming into to the discussion in the recent years, called semi open innovation, this modality of innovation has been referenced as one that uses external knowledge, however considers that this knowledge is not a crucial element for the development of innovation. In this present study, semi-open innovation is characterized when the innovation process meets specific conditions of particular set of technologies and companies bounded by the local conditions. Design/Methodology/Approach: it refers to a qualitative study, supported by case studies. Findings: It was observed that the existence of a local Scientific and Technology Institute is a reason to define the location to produce, but did not find evidences of a large use of STI resources or with other local researchers for a product development. We could not clearly identify real open innovation model in practice. However, the proximity of a technological education and University of great national reputation, in addition to providing skilled labour, becomes a source of knowledge that should be used more frequently. Conclusions pointed out that there is a restricted support given by STI. The cases show that two firms practice an open innovation mode. In one case we conclude it refers to semi-open innovation practice.

Innovation Model

In the past year, knowledge and innovation management have acquired increasing relevance in organizations. In the last decade, open innovation strategy, and in particular, crowdsourcing innovation model has also gained increasing importance. This model is seen as a new innovation model, capable of accelerating the innovation process. Therefore, it is important to understand how organizations can best take advantage of this innovation model. This paper approaches in two ways for commercializing intellectual property: crowdsourcing innovation, and intellectual property marketplaces. Thus, with the intention of understanding the concepts and practices, the study started by collecting scientific articles through bibliographic data bases. The paper provides knowledge about concepts and practices underlying the ways for commercializing intellectual property. It also contributes with a proposal of architecture for an intellectual property marketplace, based on the analysis of practices about crowdsourcing innovation and intellectual property marketplaces. This architecture is still in a draft stage, but already includes helpful insights for organizations interested in applying the open innovation strategy.

The chapter considers issues connected with innovation creation in open innovation model. The knowledge flow in open innovation has been presented. The main “product” of knowledge economy—innovations (as a concept)—are symbolic goods, founded in symbols – not in atoms. This notion causes some consequences typical for information goods, like ease of replication or exchange, zero-marginal replication costs, and cheap storage. On the other hand, there are growing innovation production costs, and uncertainty and risk of innovation activity that discourage companies from being innovative. The idea of open innovation is being used in pharmaceutical industry more and more often in order to cut innovation costs and shorten the new drugs pipelines. One of the most “open” dimensions of innovation activity in pharmaceutical industry is crowdsourcing: a specific sourcing model, an internet-enabled business model that harnesses the creative ability of agents external to organization.

AbstractFirms use open innovation strategy to explore external knowledge or exploit internal knowledge to benefit their product/service innovations, and thus enhance their innovation performance. However, a lack of relational mechanisms makes it more difficult for collaborative partners to share their knowledge assets. Existing literature lacks a clear explanation of how knowledge and relational mechanisms simultaneously function for innovation success. In response, this study attempts to answer: (1) Can archetypes of open innovation strategies be identified by knowledge and relational mechanisms simultaneously? And, (2) Do they differ in their ability to predict innovation success under the condition of innovation process characteristics? An exploratory study of 78 open innovation firms reflects four archetypes of open innovation strategies. A subsequent cross-industry survey of 248 open innovation firms in Taiwan reveals that the four archetypes of open innovation strategies result in varying degrees of innovation success, and innovation process characteristics positively moderate such associations.

Effective Transfer

The article deals with the formation of effective interaction in the process of technology transfer. The subject of the study was the trends in the formation of the digital space of the transfer of knowledge and technology in Ukraine. The development of the transfer of knowledge and technology is based on the progress and formation of a digital society and the intensification of the processes of the formation of the information economy. The transfer of knowledge and technology is defined as the interaction of all participants of innovative processes to receive, transfer and exchange information, which is further implemented into the final innovative product. The peculiarity of the modern stage of the transfer of knowledge and technology is determined by openness, acceleration of information transfer, increasing the availability of knowledge. The analysis of innovation activity of Ukrainian enterprises demonstrated that the share of innovatively active enterprises in the country is insignificant. The main areas of innovation where the share of innovative enterprises in the country is the largest are the production of chemicals and chemical products, the production of computers, electronic and optical goods, as well as the extraction of crude oil and natural gas and metal ores. The increase of innovative activity of Ukrainian enterprises requires attracting a greater share of them to technology transfer processes. The transfer of knowledge and technology is an integral part of the open innovation model that the main idea is free access to knowledge, its openness and active movement of scientific developments and innovative technologies. The transfer of knowledge and technology as a component of the open innovation model involves the inclusion of a wide range of participants, including enterprises, research centers and institutions, representatives of venture capital, academic science and the state. In the digital space, the construction of interaction among the participants of the process of transfer of knowledge and technology takes place on the basis of the active usage of the capabilities of cloud technologies, network associations that makes it possible to create an effective transfer mechanism, speed up the process of knowledge exchange, increase the availability of knowledge.

It is well known that innovation has been recognized as a crucial success factor for companies. The development of information technologies enabled integration of innovators (suppliers, customers, institutes) into innovation process by the use of IT-based tools. This facilitated the access to a large pool of ideas that can grow into innovation as new product/service, process. The connection of open innovation concept and information systems resulted in platforms for open innovation that enabled easier access, not only to customers, but also to other potential participants, who are willing to independently contribute in solving the specific problems of the company. Having in mind the importance of this contemporary approach, the main goal of the paper is the systematization of platforms for open innovation. Moreover, we presented platform classification, key elements of existed platforms design, as well as various examples of best practice of platforms for open innovation with recognized design elements.

The traditional model of competitive intelligence and its operationalization inmost organizations appears to be inadequate to address the intelligence challenges arising fromthe speed of change in the environment, increasing data complexity, and growth of internationalactivities. To address this challenge, this article borrows concepts from open innovation,applying them to all CI activities. We are suggesting going beyond the traditional model of anin-house CI unit with activities largely conducted by the units personnel and moving towards across pollination approach whereby others in the firm contribute to all CI activities including,for example, the selection of key intelligence topics and being involved in analysis andeventually towards a full open intelligence model in which key stakeholders and externalexperts also assist the organization in all aspects of competitive intelligence activity. Inproposing a more open approach for intelligence, the authors recognize the concern that CIprofessionals will have regarding sharing intelligence and intelligence activities outside the CIunit and outside the organization. However, as pointed out in this article, organizations aroundthe world have been moving quickly towards an open innovation model generally concludingthat the benefits associated with opening up all elements of the innovation process, includingR&D, outweigh the risks of intellectual property loss.

The paper aims to analyze the environmental aspects of innovation activity undertaken by companies and, in particular, to assess sustainable business leaders’ propensity to generate eco-innovation. The research described in the paper was descriptive and, to some extent, diagnostic. It was based on a non-random sample and was conducted—using the Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) method—in 2019 among 54 of the most eco-innovative Polish companies. The results of the research indicate that they are more likely to generate radical rather than incremental changes. Moreover, the most eco-innovative companies are those developing technologies for biodiversity protection. The results further indicate that companies with more than 50 employees have a higher propensity to develop incremental and radical eco-innovation than smaller firms with relatively fewer resources. Finally, this study shows that adopting an open innovation strategy strengthens the propensity to generate eco-innovation, especially radical ones. Moreover, developing such changes is dominated by the adoption of strategic and operational forward supply chain collaboration, involving the absorption of knowledge and information streaming directly from the market. The results can provide a frame for developing new business models incorporating collaboration in eco-innovation activities, especially in the situation of a post-pandemic recovery of the economy.
