Conclusion -- Index. 330 3 $aSmall and medium enterprises (SMEs) have to approach open innovation differently than large companies. Open Innovation Essentials for Small and Medium Enterprises provides the first comprehensive introduction to the practice of open innovation expressly for entrepreneurs and managers of SMEs. The authors provide strategies, techniques, and "tricks of the trade" that enable SMEs to establish and operate open innovation systems that increase their business's profitability and enhance the long-term value of their equity. They explain how SMEs can use open innovation to develop and sell products and services or to acquire, mature, and sell technology and intellectual property rights. Tools such as brokers, auctions, crowdsourcing, technology transfer, and spin-ups are presented in ways that make it easy to use them in your own company. The entire book can be read on an airplane flight or in an evening, making it useful for people already in business and faculty or students seeking supplemental reading material for courses. 410 0$aEntrepreneurship and small business management collection.$x1946-5661 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aTechnological innovations 606 $aSmall business$xManagement 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $abusiness acceleration 610 $acrowdsourcing 610 $aintellectual property (IP) 610 $aIP auctions 610 $aIP brokerage 610 $aopen innovation 610 $asmall and medium enterprises (SMEs) 610 $aspin-up companies 610 $atechnology transfer 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aTechnological innovations. 615 0$aSmall business$xManagement. 676 $a658.421 700 $aEscoffier$b Luca.$0800407 702 $aLa Vopa$b Adriano. 702 $aSpeser$b Phyllis L. 702 $aSatinsky$b Daniel. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465861103321 996 $aOpen innovation essentials for small and medium enterprises$92286241 997 $aUNINA
