Open Data Innovation geodata perspective

Silicon Valley’s Orthodox Approach

Is Open Innovation something new?

• collective invention • Crowdsourcing / crowdfunding• community-based competition • user-developed innovation • open source And more..

Usually literature deals with how to use external knowledge to foster innovation but not much on opening up internal knowledge to foster innovation.

Open Data is information which can be freely used, reused, and redistributed, in machine

readable format, by anyone, anywhere, for any purpose

Open Knowledge is what Open Databecomes when it is made

useful - accessible, understandable, meaningful

and able to help someone solve a real problem

Why Open data in Open Innovation?

Open data opens up the possibility of external innovators and it has not been researched enough. Therefore, it is of interest to study the opening up of data sets and try to understand how it influences Innovation process.

My Purpose

Describe and analyse how organisations open up data sets to actors external to the organization and understand how these organisations (both internal and external actors) benefit from open data in terms of innovation.

Nelson Mandela wore batik shirts on formal occasions; the South Africans call it a Madiba shirt.

In 2010, Nelson Mandela was present in the stadium when Spain's international football team won their first ever World Cup Football trophy
