Authors pay special attention on the difference between open and closed innovation process from an individual's point of view. In Section 5, authors introduce the Quartet Helix Model (as additional model to Triple Helix Model) and an analysis of new dynamics of open innovation processes. In Section 6, authors elaborate and discuss open innovation management roadmaps to the future. Section 7 provides elaborations of alternative innovation models for private enterprises, with special attention to foresight–innovation linkages. In Section 8, authors analyse links between radical innovation management and OP paradigm. Section 9 provides summary of key insights and results.
