in the 60s by a professor and executive director
at the Center for Open Innovation at the
University of California, Henry Chesbrough.
“Open innovation is a paradigm that
assumes that firms can and should use
external ideas as well as internal ideas, and
internal and external paths to market, as the
firms look to advance their technology ”.

and co-creative collaboration between all actors in society, beyond
organizations and beyond normal licensing and collaboration schemes.
Open Innovation is a process of innovation by which companies are is
no longer "closed in" on themselves, but opens on the contrary to a
diversity of other external actors (researchers, partner companies,
customers, students , etc.) or internal (employees not belonging to the
R&D / innovation department).

innovation or its market.
