Open Innovation Capacity of the Polish Universities

The Journal of the Knowledge Economy posted an article which noted that following the patterns of open innovation should be one of the key elements of knowledge management systems in universities. Universities sharing or selling their intellectual property become natural partners, allies or suppliers in securing innovation in companies. This paper adds to the state of the art research by presenting data on Polish technical universities and by offering discussion on their open innovation capacity. The study covers two key aspects: (1) universities delivering solutions as partners/suppliers in outside-in innovation processes of companies and (2) universities as facilitators of open innovation ecosystems or key players in the ecosystems.
