Unravelling the process from Closed to Open Innovation: evidence from mature, asset‐intensive industries

Davide Chiaroni, Vittorio Chiesa, Federico Frattini · 2010 · R and D Management

Summary. This paper examines how mature, asset-intensive firms transition from closed to open innovation models. Through longitudinal case studies of four Italian companies, the authors identify four organizational dimensions that change during this shift: inter-organizational networks, organizational structures, evaluation processes, and knowledge management systems. The findings provide a framework for understanding and managing the organizational transformation required to adopt open innovation practices.
