Abstract

Research conducted around the topic of open innovation has been mainly empirical in nature and primarily focused on firms. For a better understanding of open innovation, it is important to conduct further research beyond the “firm environment”, particularly in areas related to public policy. This chapter addresses the topic of open innovation, relating it to public policy, analyzing the framework conditions that can stimulate the development of open innovation in organizations. More specifically, the chapter uses the Portuguese public policies as a case study. A methodology is proposed and discussed for analyzing the degree of openness in public policy, concerning policy orientation to support the development of open innovation.
