Abstract

More and more high-tech companies are opening up in the pursuit of innovative solutions and involving other experts from outside institutions or research bodies to become more innovative. This chapter explores the trend towards new types of innovation networks that range from different actors engaging in cluster initiatives to companies dropping all former boundaries in crowdsourcing. The question it poses is how enterprises in research-intensive industries can add external sources from research and science to their own capabilities in the form of highly specialized expertise. It then looks at an ICT platform as an example of outsourcing: for many years now, this platform has successfully been bringing together many external actors at a high level in the search for innovative solutions.
