| dc.description.abstract | Companies increasingly organize innovation activities within innovation ecosystems. This study illustrates the central role of the IP-model that an orchestrator develops for the innovation ecosystem partners. The governance of IP is instrumental for the success of innovation ecosystems as it determines the value appropriation potential for the ecosystem partners and positively influences the success of innovation ecosystems. The insights are based on a case study of IMEC, a public research institute in nano-electronics. IMEC has an IP-based orchestration model for innovation ecosystems through multi-party research collaborations between public and private firms.

Exploring the Impact of Open Innovation on National Systems of Innovation - a Theoretical AnalysisThis paper investigates the impact of open innovation on national systems of innovation. The open innovation concept has become widely established among scholars and practitioners. However, an overview of its impact on national innovation systems is still lacking. Given that the innovating firm is at the core of national innovation systems, a better understanding of shifting innovation strategies at the firm level is of fundamental importance to the actions of policy-makers within the national innovation systems framework. Based on the main analytical approaches of national innovation systems and the current state of open innovation research, we argue that open innovation practices have at least three critical effects on national systems of innovation: (a) they reinforce its importance; (b) they improve its effectiveness; and (c) they diversify its networks.

Knowledge management with focus on the innovation process in collaborative networking companiesKnowledge lies at the very heart of innovation. A company's ability to create, store and transfer knowledge about technologies, customer needs and the innovation process itself may well determine success in bringing new products or services to the market. Yet, little is known as to how companies treat these issues in practice. This paper presents the results of a research project assessing practices and challenges for innovation-oriented knowledge management within four global technology-based companies in Switzerland. Results are discussed from both company-internal and external network perspectives. For company-internal knowledge management, broad differences in terms of both practices and challenges were found between the companies mainly because of different ways of implementing the innovation process and very different company cultures. Common issues included poor implementation of post-project reviews as well as a need for better integrating market and customer knowledge into all stages of the innovation process. For the external perspective, a more homogenous picture emerged where companies network with different partners throughout the innovation process and where knowledge creation and transfer were substantially greater for long-term partnerships.

Barometer innovative public procurement in BelgiumRethinking the way that government organizations purchase goods and services is a vital step in dealing with the present-day challenges faced by the public sector. The post-2008 austerity measures force government organizations to reduce waste in public expenditure in order to allocate the shrinking budgets as efficiently as possible. Public procurement, representing an important share of public expenditure, can be a key element in realizing these efficiency goals. Additionally, the demand of public organizations may influence the development and diffusion of innovations. In this sense, public procurement, if used wisely, can add fuel to the ‘innovation engine’, thereby allowing the public sector to support the private sector without the use of traditional state aid. This “Barometer Innovative Procurement in Belgium” aims to serve a dual purpose: (1) To untangle the broad term ‘innovative procurement’ and shed light on the various interpretations that different actors give to it. To this end, we discuss the Procurement Matrix which describes public procurement along two dimensions. This framework is intended to summarize the different interpretations into one 2x3 matrix. By untangling the term, we hope that confusion can be avoided in future discussions, and in that way contribute to fruitful cross-organizational cooperations. (2) To provide an overview of various initiatives in Belgium that are focusing on the topic of innovative procurement. While it is refreshing to see that many actors take an interest in innovative procurement, it is important to keep a clear view on who is doing what, the triggers to change, and the challenges going forward. To this end, we provide a brief description of the primary initiatives in Belgium. We hope this contributes to pinpointing potential opportunities to learn from one another. It is important to note that this barometer does not aim to be an exhaustive overview of innovative procurement initiatives in Belgium. Rather, by talking to a wide array of actors, we have tried to identify the key initiatives. During these interviews, no other substantial initiatives were named, leading us to believe that many of the other Belgian stakeholders stick to the traditional way-of procuring. The barometer is the result of semi-structured interviews with various stakeholders in Belgium (federal, regional, and local level), a round table conference organized on 20/04/2017, policy reports, and academic literature.
