Open innovation offers opportunities to reduce research costs, spread risks and bring innovations to market more quickly. The term refers to the collaboration between companies, individuals and public agencies to create innovative products and services, and in the process, share risks and rewards. The idea is that in a world of distributed knowledge, companies can’t rely only on internal research and can benefit from innovating with partners. Open innovation is about building a system where ideas flow openly from customers, employees, and other stakeholders such as partners & suppliers. This system allows to collaboratively flesh out ideas leading to sustained innovation and value creation.
