Abstract
Institutional openness is becoming increasingly popular in practice and academia: open innovation, open R&D, and open business models. This special issue builds on the concepts, underlying assumptions and implications discussed in two previous R&D Management special issues (2006, 2009). This overview indicates the perspectives needed to develop an open innovation theory more fully. It also assesses some of the recent evidence that has come to light about open innovation, in theory and in practice.
