- Many organisations are embracing the open innovation approach. However, becoming open to ideas coming from outside requires a revision of their innovation processes in order to integrate external and internal ideas effectively. The aim of this chapter is to explore why and how firms are coping with managing new external ideas from their customers and what they are learning from these ideas. Using information gleaned from interviews with ten organisations which have set up IT application for eliciting feedback from their customers, we found that much of the ideas obtained have led to exploitative learning. Only small firms (with fewer than ten employees) have learned ideas from their customers that have led to exploratory activities. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

- The advent of the open innovation approach, together with the increased sophistication of new IT tools, has excited several researchers’ interest in user innovation. However, most such research remains fragmented and limited in its scope. The aim of the present study is to explore the role of IT throughout all the different phases of user innovation process and their associated advantages and disadvantages. In doing so, the study draws on material gleaned from three cases of companies in their attempt to integrate users and customers during the different phases of the innovation process. The study shows that IT tools are not enough rather they need to be complemented with more traditional modes of interactions and communications with their customers and users. This is all the more so as customers and users in other parts of the world differ with regard to their preferences, technical maturities and access to IT. The chapter ends with conclusions and some implications for theory and practice of open innovation technologies.

Open service innovation in health care : What can we learn from open innovation communities?

- The purpose of the chapter is to describe and discuss how principles from open innovation, which are primarily derived from commercial product development, could be applied to open service innovation in non-profit health care organisations. To evaluate the drivers, barriers and prerequisites of such innovation, we performed an explorative study consisting of interviews with two rheumatologists, engaged in a Swedish research project on open innovation in health care. According to the interviews, the main driver was considered to be “the empowered patient”, holding a good knowledge of his or her disease. Barriers to open innovation were the lack of meeting places for patients, a strong local variation in how health care services are delivered, and an organisational culture which does not promote learning and innovations. It is necessary for health care organisations to change their current culture of closed innovation, implying that only physicians have valid knowledge about patients’ diseases. Other necessary prerequisites for implementing open innovation principles are support from management and structures of financial control which encourage innovations. This explorative study is, to the best of our knowledge, the first to combine principles of open innovation and health care services.

Open Source Software as Open Innovation : Experiences from the Medical Domain

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the past decade, we have witnessed an increased interest amongst commercial and public sector organisations for Open Source Software (OSS). As any individual and organisation has the right to freely read, use, improve and redistribute the source code for software that is developed and released under an OSS licence, it creates new opportunities for Open Innovation. In this chapter, we report on how companies collaborate on production of software artefacts in an OSS project, thereby showing how a form of Open Innovation can be utilised by a large company that goes beyond collaborative development of ideas. In doing so, we report on company decisions and development practices concerning how a software project evolved from proprietary to an open collaborative software development project that is released under an OSS licence (LGPLv2).

Creating value through open innovation in social E-learning
- 2012
-

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This chapter discusses how to create value in the network, which is critical since social media-based E-learning can be seen as a network of actors interacting with each other. The more value a network can potentially accrue, the richer the learning experience is for the participants. Value in this instance is defined as the network’s ability to generate and aid the construction of social knowledge. Further, the chapter discusses the implementation of social media-based E-learning and finally some practical advice is presented about how to implement social media-based E-learning.
