17 Telefónica has launched a new model of Venture Capital companies Telefónica began in 2007 with this program, allocating 20 million euros. It has already been invested in 3 companies (Usability and user interface) At the end of the year, we expect to have a portfolio consisting of about 10 or 12 companies, well positioned in areas as advertising in the mobile social networks, converged fixed-mobile services or medical and health care services. (Advertising in the mobile) Telefónica's strategy is based on controlling minority shareholdings in companies from the strategic point of view, benefiting Telefónica in "key areas and possible future growth.

How to control and monitoring collaborative projects? How to manage multicultural and virtual teams? 42

31 Conclusion: Some proposals to Public Administrations Innovation is essentially a business phenomenon, but with the open innovation, the role of public actors becomes more significant: Some proposals: Putting focus on the physical ICT networks for exchanging knowledge between all the agents of the Global Innovation Networks, Promoting public grants, loans and tax Credits for R&D in collaboration Putting focus on R&D&Innovation management tools (promoting new models and professional profiles) Building new ways for transferring knowledge between public and private sectors. Collaborating from the public sector to identify new technology trends and promoting living labs for forecasting new market trends. Evolving the IPR framework from an open innovation point of view. Putting focus, also, on the innovation in services, where the open innovation model is evident. 43
