Abstract

The field of Open Innovation (OI) has been explored in many studies concerning several aspects of its fundamental characteristics. Research has mainly focused on the capability of companies of integrating and reconfiguring external and internal knowledge to create value. Increasingly, academic investigation efforts and practical needs of many companies have converged in a common purpose: to find out those proper Intellectual Capital (IC) elements capable of acting as key drivers of OI practices.
