Vincent Blok, L. Hoffmans, E.F.M. Wubben · 2015 · Journal on Chain and Network Science

Summary. Dutch food companies pursuing responsible innovation fall short of genuine stakeholder engagement despite policy emphasis on it.

The study identifies critical barriers to stakeholder engagement specific to private-sector innovation and proposes management practices to address these obstacles.
