LEGO has successfully used open innovation to survive changes in the market. It removed unrelated activities, revised its innovation policy to involve users, partners and competitors through crowdsourcing, user-driven innovation and co-creation. This helped LEGO focus on profitability and competitiveness. It launched programs like Mindstorms with MIT and LEGO Ambassador and CUUSOO to involve users in innovation. Nokia invested heavily in R&D but failed to regain the smartphone market leadership. It collaborated with universities but its internal innovation through the Nokia Research Center and business units was not adequate. Xerox PARC created many innovations but they did not benefit Xerox and instead spun off or were commercialized by employees
