Como se pode concluir pelo resumo a seguir o trabalho do relatório da imagem germinou e desenvolveu-se no mundo dos negócios. Mas como defendemos e disso temos dado expressão neste blogue os setores «com fins lucrativos» e os «sem fins lucrativos» podem e devem aprender um com o outro. Até porque há dimensões comuns a todas as organizações. E vamos ao resumo:
«This report sets out to answer the question: ‘I want to implement open innovation – where should
I start and what should I do?’ It provides an overview of existing approaches to OI and outlines
how a company can start to implement a strategy to match the organisation’s needs. The report will
be particularly relevant for CEOs, CTOs and senior managers of R&D and supply chains. It will
also be useful for senior managers who have been charged with OI implementation.
The report is the product of two years’ research within the Cambridge Open Innovation Network,
a network hosted by the Institute for Manufacturing and funded by Unilever and the Cambridge
Integrated Knowledge Centre. It illustrates the challenges facing senior managers who are
setting out to implement an open innovation strategy in their companies. The importance of
organisational culture, and ways in which the culture can be influenced, has been the key focus of
this research.
From interviews across various sectors, it was clear that OI means different things to different
industries. However, all the companies involved recognised that OI represents an opportunity to
improve innovation capability and to confront business challenges. All the contributors to our
study showed a great interest in understanding and sharing practice about ways to implement OI
in their business».
E também já aqui destaque para o que se entende por «open innovation»:
«Open innovation (OI) is a strategy by which companies
allow a flow of knowledge across their boundaries as they
look for ways to enhance their innovation capability. Company
boundaries become ‘permeable’, enabling the matching and
integration of resources between the company and external
collaborators».
