Despite providing us with a good understanding of how firms use
certain mechanisms to benefit from open innovation strategies,
current research provides only limited insights into how barriers
internal to the firm may hamper knowledge transfer and limit
effective utilization of external knowledge sources. The Influence
of Internal Barriers on Open Innovation proposes a dynamic
perspective that addresses this gap and aims at stimulating this
discussion in two ways. First, by looking at how the way firms
structure their internal (innovation) activities may
(unintentionally) create barriers to the incorporation of external
knowledge. Second, by reflecting on how internal barriers might be
coupled to firm decisions aimed at the optimization of innovation
processes, like the balance between exploration and exploitation
strategies. The chapters of this book provide detailed
conceptualization and investigation of organizational
characteristics and practices that influence internal barriers to
open innovation. The diverse set of studies described in the
chapters of this book will help open innovation scholars to better
understand the challenges that firms face when dealing with
internal barriers that affect their external knowledge search and
knowledge sourcing. The chapters in this book were originally
published as a special issue of the journal Industry and
Innovation.
