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-

firms - to identify and capitalize on new opportunities for
