The State of Open Innovation
In 2018, Luminary Labs surveyed nearly 100 private sector,
government, and nonprofit organizations in this inaugural cross-
sector survey to discover how they use open innovation in
pursuit of new approaches to complex problems and how they
are building open innovation competencies inside their
organizations.
The report features insights from open innovation leaders at
AstraZeneca, Bayer, City of Pittsburgh, MIT Solve, Mozilla,
Nestlé USA, Pfizer, Schmidt Futures, Verizon, UCLA, and
the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

overcoming obstacles on the path to maturity?
