65 65 Open Innovation Open Innovation System: combining internal and external ideas and internal and external market paths to advance the development of new technologies active search for new technologies and ideas outside of the firm, but also through cooperation with suppliers and competitors, in order to create customer value further development or out-licensing of ideas and technologies that do not fit the strategy of the organization Source : Teemu Santonen, Jari Kaivooja & Jyrki Suomala, INTRODUCTION TO NATIONAL OPEN INNOVATION SYSTEM (NOIS) PARADIGM FFRC ebooks 8/2007

71 71 Network Knowledge Economy Traditionally, the owner of the innovation (one company) takes charge of the innovation process Distributed innovation processes accelerated by ICT Innovations created within various networks involving experts, users, communities and companies from all over the world. Future innovation - A significant portion is to take place within networks in which companies play just one part Innovation activity is essentially co-operative, and organizations should be prepared to share the benefits.
