The Open Innovation Forum aims to provide a wide perspective on the present and future of Open Innovation when applied to the emergence and consolidation of corporate and startups ecosystems.
The recent increase in popularity of open ecosystems to foster innovation in organizations is one of the most dramatic changes in the way that companies compete. This reality implies profound changes in the way we face markets, develop new products & services, and manage talent. How to face those challenges, today and tomorrow, is the key question that the Open Innovation Forum is planning to explore.
2nd October, 2018
This plenary session offers a double reflection on the future of Open Innovation combining two complementary perspectives: emerging thinking and business.
The main goal is to clarify the emerging set of opportunities and challenges than the Open Innovation Ecosystem has to face in the close future.
In this second plenary session, a critical question will be addressed: what is the value offered by open innovation and its ecosystems to the companies. Three complementary open innovation experiences will be explored with key industry leaders that will share not only their open innovation strategy, but, more importantly, their visions and personal challenges.
The basic idea is to provide a very realistic approach to the value offered by open innovation with a very strong focus on the customer.
Each one of the participants will share 15’ of their relevant cases, followed by a roundtable, guided by Federico Florez, Ferrovial and Miguel Arias, Telefónica.
A networking opportunity to meet relevant people by previous appointment.
Experience demonstrates that successful Open Innovation initiatives have to deal with some critical issues: talent management, new product/service development, the usage of new data-driven opportunities and open innovation management.
Each issue is a problem to be solved and an opportunity to be explored. The breakouts offer to the participants the opportunity to explore some of them, defining their own learning path choosing two breakouts from a catalogue of four.
Breakouts structure
Each breakout is a moderated discussion of three participants from the industry answering three basic questions:
During the discussion, Henry Chesbrough, will be invited to listen for a while in order to collect his personal impression on the discussion mood a starting material for the final discussion.

How to create a governance model for open innovation is a critical success factor. Defining key roles, creating a specific organizational function and identifying the critical decision to be made and poorly solved challenges. This breakout provides a fresh perspective on the different governance frameworks suitable to be applied.
Startups are the “new kind in the city” in the realm of open innovation. In this common breakout, startups are invited to show their unique perspective of their role in open innovation ecosystems, identifying demand and offer in a new collaboration model.
