- Intermediaries have become an increasingly important part of innovation collaborationarrangements such as open innovation. Much attention has been given tostructural arrangements for open innovation, but less interest has been given tohow people experience the participation in open innovation work. This chapter isbased on a longitudinal case study of SAFER, an open innovation intermediaryarena for research on traffic and vehicle safety. It investigates how participants inthis arena experience their situation as they spend time on things typically "outside"their tasks in their home organizations. The study provides insight into thetensions and confusion that the participants experience in their work, as they constantlyneed to renegotiate their positions both within their home organizations,and in the relation to the intermediary arena and the other organizations.
