Summary

Introduction

Open innovation is increasingly being introduced in international and national organizations for the creation of value (Chesbrough & Rosenbloom, 2002; Lee, Olson, & Trimi, 2012; Morgan & Finnegan, 2008; Ndou, Vecchio, & Schina, 2011). The stock of information and knowledge captured externally is transferred to the company and is a useful tool for the creation and delivery of value, increasing the growth of the organization, the conquest of new domestic and international markets, and contributing to increased performance and profits This movement to capture knowledge from outside the company is one of the driving elements in the creation of value for the company, because it makes operation of dynamic capabilities visible, in the sense of understanding and mapping opportunities and threats, grabbing opportunities to maintain competitiveness through the increase, combination, protection and reinvention of the business model (Teece, 2007; Teece et al, 1997)
