Within open innovation in opposition to working on innovating behind closed doors, inside an organisation, company involves other partners in the process. Open innovation is a key strategy that allows SMEs to be relevant contributors to innovation, by sharing the risk and challanges of innovation with other organisations with complementary resources. That makes innovation more effective and more accessible to all types of organisations.
