Open Innovation: What are the challenges, where do we go?David Teece
This document summarizes a presentation on open innovation challenges and directions. It discusses the history and theory of open innovation, noting it recognizes not all ideas can be developed internally. Elements of the open innovation model include the proportion of in-house vs external R&D and proprietary vs non-proprietary IP strategies. Digital convergence and platforms have implications for open innovation, requiring engagement with external ideas, technologies, and assets. Business model options are more varied in multi-invention contexts. Aligning complementary assets and partners is key, as emphasized by Adner's "wider lens" approach. Sensing external opportunities and seizing them through collaboration are ongoing challenges for open innovation.

The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

– I: entrepreneurs
– II: large incumbents
• Numerous studies, empirical and theoretical:
– start-ups ~ radical innovations
– incumbents ~ incremental innovations
• But:
– older studies usually assumed
product market competition
– reality: successful start-ups
often acquired by incumbents
• Does it matter for innovation if entrants aim for being acquired by

Start-ups in EDA: Evidence from Interviews
Start-ups …
A) have to do innovate
– “[Innovative technology] is the only thing they sell, so it‘s either make it
or break it.”(2)
B) have to aim for radical innovation:
– “... there [in small firms] … has to be a radical core, I would say,
otherwise it is not possible”
• “So they are relying on start-ups, which then are starting from scratch …
so they can apply very new methodology with very new techniques without
being restrained by all customers or all the methodology”
C) can hardly remain independent in the long run:
– “The goal is always to be acquired. […] The more successful we are,
the more urgent it becomes to be acquired.”(3)
Numbers (2, 5, 3) denote the interview patner.

Set-up
• One established firm (I) and N entrants
• All conduct R&D to develop a new product
• Firms choose from a given set of possible R&D projects,
characterized by their success probability p
• Profit for I from a project, if successful: p(p); otherwise: 0
• The function p·p(p) assumes its maximum in ]0,1[ at p = p*
• Only the incumbent can market the innovation
Þ start-ups aim at being acquired by I
• All firms maximize expected profits:
– Entrants: Expected acquisition price
– Incumbent: Expected product market profit minus acquisition price

Timing
time
• Stage 1: firms pick their R&D projects (pI , p1, p2)
• (Nature: R&D outcomes are realized)
• Stage 2: Competition among the start-ups to be
acquired by the incumbent
• (Product is sold, profits are realized)
Alternative interpretation:
patented inventions are traded
in a market for technology
14. Analysis: Game Theory
• A “Game” is a situation where:
– The “players” have to make decisions
– The payoff is affected by other players’ actions
– The case in setup considered here
• We look for a stable situation (or, “Nash equilibrium”):
– Everybody is expected to behave in a certain way
– All players are doing the best that they can for themselves given what
the other players are expected to do
– Nobody has an incentive to deviate from the expected behavior

16. Intuition
• Entrants choose risky strategies as they need to have the best
available technology to be acquired
• Incumbent chooses a safer strategy to have a fall-back option and
a good bargaining position in negotiations with a successful entrant
• The more entrants there are, the stronger is the push to pursue
radical projects with low success probability/high value:
– Success probability of the most radical project undertaken in
equilibrium is decreasing in the number of entrants
• Result is robust to a number of changes:
– More entrants, more incumbents, different timing of the game, etc.

Conclusions
• Explains focus of start-ups on riskier and, if successful, more radical
innovations, based only on their need of being acquired
• Incumbent chooses a safer strategy to have a fall-back option and a good
bargaining position in negotiations with a successful entrant
• Parsimonious model with very rich structure
• Model fits well what we observe in EDA
– in real life, mixed with other mechanisms (HR, organizational rigidities, focus on
existing customers)
• Industries where model fits are characterized by systems products:
– Software, electronics, telecom
• Contribution to understanding sources of innovation and markets for ideas
