It involves cooperating and collaborating with external parties in the area of innovation and in the research and development of products and services and is driven by the simple realisation that not all the smart people work for just one organisation - it is necessary to work with smart people outside the company. Few intellectual property books concentrate on external innovation and more particularly on dealing with external inventors and handling their inventions. Harvesting External Innovation is different. It begins by examining the broad subject of innovation, stressing the need to understand its forms and phases, ways and means to encourage innovation. It then addresses the growing phenomenon of external innovation, where companies are cooperating and collaborating with a variety of external parties, driven by a passion for innovation. Intellectual property, especially patents, plays a fundamental role promoting and protecting innovation, regardless of whether that innovation comes from internal employees or persons external to the company. Donal O'Connell specifically examines this responsibility. A number of different approaches to engaging with the external innovator community are then considered, together with real life case studies. Harvesting External Innovation discusses in depth how best to handle intellectual property matters, how to actually work with these external inventors and how to handle their inventions, including a suggested process and check list. The critical importance of innovation to business, the role that intellectual property and patents play in promoting and protecting such innovation, and the growing phenomenon of external innovation, means this book is a must read. 000027823 650_0 $$aAcademic-industrial collaboration. 000027823 650_0 $$aNew products. 000027823 650_0 $$aPatents. 000027823 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000027823 650_4 $$aResearch, Industrial -- Management 000027823 650_4 $$aNew products 000027823 650_4 $$aDiffusion of innovations -- Management 000027823 650_4 $$aElectronic books. -- local 000027823 650_4 $$aAcademic-industrial collaboration 000027823 650_4 $$aIntellectual property 000027823 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000027823 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aO'Connell, Donal$$tHarvesting External Innovation : Managing External Relationships and Intellectual Property$$dFarnham : Taylor and Francis,c2011$$z9781409418337 000027823 85640 $$uhttp://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=711343$$yView Ebook 000027823 904__ $$aBook 000027823 942__ $$cEBOOK 000027823 980__ $$aBIB 000027823 980__ $$aEBL_old 000027823 980__ $$aOS 000027823 999__ $$c30338$$d30338
