Proudly found elsewhere*
After a hectic week at work and our geo-information society (a two-day conference with 2500 attendents) I was able to spend some hours on my thesis this weekend. Chesbrough’s (e.a). “Open Innovation: researching a new paradigm” was hard to get at the U of Groningen, so I just ordered a copy online. It has more indepth information and an academic point of view, the 2003 book is more practical and easier to read.
I have been able to draw up a mindmap of my thesis and lay-out the various papers in relation to this mindmap. The same for books I have read / am reading. This does create a big mess in my office, but it’s a good exercise for the brain. Not quite happy yet about my central research question. How can the geo-information sector in the Netherlands jointly grow by applying open innovation principles?
In the meantime I was able to follow the #ois09 tweedfeed. (I see it as a repay for my tweets during the events I attend.) Interesting remarks, thank you very much!
