In Zeiten der Globalisierung, des steigenden Wettbewerbsdrucks und der immer kürzer werdenden Produktlebenszyklen sind Unternehmen wie nie zuvor gefordert Innovationen zu entwickeln, um auch in Zukunft wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. Hier bietet Open Innovation, durch die aktive Nutzung der Außenwelt, eine Möglichkeit das Innovationspotential eines Unternehmens zu steigern. Daraus ergibt sich für diese Arbeit die Fragestellung, wie Open Innovation in der Literatur definiert wird, welche Möglichkeiten sich dadurch für Unternehmen ergeben und, welche Werkzeuge hierfür genutzt werden können. Zu Beginn der Arbeit werden grundlegende Begriffe definiert und das Closed Innovation Paradigma vorgestellt, ehe auch das Open Innovation Paradigma von Henry Chesbrough behandelt wird. Daran anschließend wird auf die Weiterentwicklung von Enkel und Gassmann sowie die drei Kernprozesse Outside-In, Inside-Out und Coupled eingegangen. Es werden benötigte Kompetenzen bei der Einführung von Open Innovation und ein Controlling Ansatz erörtert. Auch Motive und mögliche Herausforderungen bei der Einführung von Open Innovation werden erläutert. Im darauffolgenden Kapitel liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der Relevanz und den Potentialen von Open Innovation für Österreich. Hierfür wird die von der Bundesregierung erstellte Open Innovation Strategie für Österreich vorgestellt. Es werden die identifizierten Handlungsfelder und die Vision 2025 erörtert. Zudem wird auf eine Studie zu neuen Innovationsmodellen und deren Bedeutung für Österreich eingegangen. Um die Arbeit abzurunden, wurden zwölf qualitative Interviews geführt, um die Frage der Bekanntheit von Open Innovation zu klären. Im letzten Kapitel der Arbeit werden die Ergebnisse auf diese sowie auf die Frage nach der Realisierbarkeit der Vision 2025 und was zur Verbesserung der Bekanntheit dieses Themas getan werden kann, präsentiert und diskutiert. ; In times of globalization increasing competitive pressure and shorter product life cycles, companies are challenged to develop innovations to remain competitive for the future. In this case open innovation offers a possibility to increase the innovative potential of a company via the active use of the business environment. This raises the questions of how open innovation is defined in literature plus which possibilities arise for companies and lastly which tools can be used for this purpose. At the beginning of this thesis basic terms are defined and closed innovation paradigm is presented followed by a discussion of the open innovation paradigm by Henry Chesbrough. Additionally, the derivative by Enkel and Gassmann as well as the three core processes - Outside-In, Inside-Out and Coupled - are discussed. Furthermore, required skills on the introduction of Open Innovation and a controlling approach will be explained as well as motives and possible challenges in introducing Open Innovation. The next chapter focuses on the relevance and potential of Open Innovation for Austria. At this point, the Federal Government's Open Innovation Strategy for Austria will be presented and the identified fields of action and the 2025 Vision are discussed. Moreover, a study on new innovation models and their significance for Austria has been conducted supported by twelve qualitative interviews to clarify the question of the awareness of Open Innovation. The last chapter of the thesis presents and discusses the results, as well as deals with the question of the feasibility of the Vision 2025 and suggests possible improvements to the awareness of this topic. ; Denise Neuhold BSc. ; Zusammenfassungen in Deutsch und Englisch ; Abweichender Titel laut Übersetzung des Verfassers/der Verfasserin ; Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Masterarbeit, 2018 ; (VLID)2581603

Seit seiner Begründung durch Henry W. Chesbrough im Jahr 2003 wird Open Innovation eingehend untersucht. Dennoch fehlte bisher eine Übersicht, welche Methoden dieses Ansatzes in der Praxis eingesetzt werden. Neben einer Vielzahl an Methoden gibt es auch etliche Zielgruppen von Open Innovation. Das wirft folgende Fragen auf: Welche Methode sollte eingesetzt werden? Mit welcher Zielgruppe kooperiert man am besten und welches Ergebnis soll erzielt werden? Anhand 185 branchenübergreifender Praxisbeispiele wurde eine Open-Innovation-Matrix (Heat Map) erstellt, welche neben einem Gesamtüberblick über die Methoden und Zielgruppen auch die Häufigkeiten der Anwendungskombinationen aufzeigt. Darüber hinaus wird jede Methode mit dem Innovationsprozess sowie dem zu erwartenden Ergebnis in Beziehung gesetzt. Somit wird eine passgenaue und prozessbezogene Zuordnung für jeden Anwendungsfall in der Praxis aufgezeigt.

The main aim of opening up innovation is to optimize the process of creating innovations, while pooling human, financial and material resources. Various profiles of actors are thus brought together in order to collaborate to achieve common objectives and share their particular interests. This book describes the challenges of collaboration in the development of innovations in a context where the sustainability of value chains is central. The diversity of collaborative forms, shared spaces (FabLab, LivingLab, co-working spaces), the intrinsic characteristics of innovation, and the actors actively involved in its emergence are all addressed in this book. The structuring of partners collaborating in innovative projects in specific environments is also discussed. Furthermore, it questions the social responsibility of companies and their innovative role in generating sustainable solutions for stakeholders.

How does Open Innovation (OI) change the innovation behavior of companies and what is the impact of OI on universities, research institutions and public funding of innovation in Germany? This thesis aims to define and explain the main features of OI, outline advantages and disadvantages, present available statistics and discuss consequences for the national innovation system and public research. Document analysis and internet research is used to examine how OI is taken into account at universities, research institutions and in innovation funding. Conclusions are verified with expert interviews. Results show that OI is increasingly common in companies, but universities, research institutions, academic organizations and science management have hardly dealt with OI as a strategic mission. Public research and innovation funding currently provide little support for opening innovation processes in companies, universities and research institutions. The thesis offers recommendations for universities, research institutions and innovation funding and identifies areas for further research.

Today openness is regarded the main driver to achieve organisational and societal growth. This openness will happen, it is believed, through the means of open data. There are high expectations of what the realization of open data will lead to, such as transparent democracy and administration, increased business competitiveness, new economic opportunities and help in tackling societal and environmental challenges. In this paper we explore and discuss the need for a roadmap to achieve openness in public authorities, as well as mechanisms of governance, and what is needed in order for a public authority to become innovative. We conclude that there is a range of issues that public authorities need to consider, if the openness initiative is to succeed, from how to redesign organisational roles, administrative tasks, control systems and decision making to organisational culture. ; Today openness is regarded the main driver to achieve organisational and societal growth.

The corporate start-up incubator is currently developing in large companies as an essential approach to open innovation. It faces a global system involving varied contexts, issues and actors. Its implementation is an art and to succeed the corporate incubator must become a real "interaction architect". Using testimonials and real case studies, the author takes a dive into the structural and social mysteries of corporate incubators. By analyzing the complex mechanisms of interactions, this book decrypts and reveals the keys to the success of these devices and to opening innovation in a broad sense. The concept of an "interaction architect" is related to the art of building fruitful interactions within human systems. Being aware that social systems exist is good, but knowing how to manage them is better

Open innovation increases the profit of companies and organizations via the input and the adoption of new ideas that are transformed into new processes, products, and services. Yet, how do we ensure that adopters of such innovations focus on relevant problems and use appropriate methods? How should we manage open innovation technologies? How can we exploit distributed knowledge and inventions? And how can we promote them successfully on the market?With valuable lessons to be learned from academic research and industrial experiences of e.g. Intel, Nokia, Philips Healthcare, small municipalities, e-learning platforms and user communities, this book focuses on some of the key dimensions of open innovation and open innovation technologies. It is divided into three themes: theme 1 deals with open innovation as it is in use today, including theoretical underpinnings and lessons from related research fields. Theme 2 analyzes the use of open innovation in organizations today in order to extract best practices. Theme 3 presents forward-looking theoretical research as well as practical future uses of open innovation. Each chapter addresses the particular topics by presenting experiences and results gained in real life projects and/or by empirical research, and clearly states its purpose and how readers are supposed to benefit from it. Overall, the objectives of this book are to advance and disseminate research on systematic open innovation, and to make its results available to practitioners. Thus, the intended target audience includes the international academic community, industrial enterprises, and public authorities.

The potential which lays in the new method of open innovation making best use of the power of the internet for the ideas generation process has not been exploited in Switzerland so far. The main question is how the government could make best use of the new paradigm of open innovation for its own purposes making the government and administration more effective. Furthermore government agencies could incentivize the application of open innovation as a new method which promises a better yield then the traditional closed model of innovation.
