Abstract

PurposeSmall and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are currently showing an increasingly open innovation (OI) approach. Public policies supporting the adoption of OI by SMEs are becoming a priority for policymakers. Therefore, the aim of this article is to contribute to the literature by mapping scholars' policy recommendations for implementing OI among SMEs.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a systematic review of the literature (SRL) on the topic to achieve this purpose. A total of 99 academic articles were selected from the Web of Science and Scopus databases to suggest the main scholars' policy recommendations to implement OI among SMEs.FindingsResults indicated that scholars' policy recommendations for OI adoption in SMEs can be organized into: research and development (R&D), networking, collaboration, knowledge and intellectual property rights (IPR), ecosystem, managerial capabilities, funding and incentives and sustainability policies.Research limitations/implicationsOnly relevant articles about this topic have been included due to the reliance on the interpretations of the authors. The analysis of the literature revealed that the authors did not always distinguish policies dedicated to SMEs and those dedicated to large companies. Moreover, policies are not matched according to each OI dimensions (e.g. inbound, outbound and coupled OI).Originality/valueThe article uses a systematic literature review method that combines qualitative and quantitative analyses. This method contributes to theoretical development of OI policies dedicated, in particular to SMEs. This paper also provides policymakers and researchers with insights on the scope of OI policies that could support economic growth.

学者对中小企业开放式创新的政策建议:系统文献综述
目的中小企业(SMEs)目前正表现出越来越多的开放式创新(OI)方式。支持中小企业采用OI的公共政策正在成为政策制定者的优先事项。因此,本文的目的是通过绘制学者在中小企业中实施OI的政策建议来为文献做出贡献。为了达到这个目的,作者对有关该主题的文献进行了系统的综述(SRL)。从Web of Science和Scopus数据库中选取了99篇学术文章,提出了主要学者对中小企业实施OI的政策建议。研究结果表明,学者对中小企业采用信息化的政策建议可归纳为:研发、网络、协作、知识和知识产权、生态系统、管理能力、资金和激励以及可持续性政策。研究的局限性/意义由于依赖于作者的解释,仅包括与该主题相关的文章。对文献的分析表明,作者并不总是区分专门针对中小企业和专门针对大公司的政策。此外,策略没有根据每个OI维度(例如入站、出站和耦合OI)进行匹配。本文采用了定性与定量相结合的系统文献综述法。这种方法有助于专门针对中小企业的OI政策的理论发展。本文还为政策制定者和研究人员提供了有关支持经济增长的OI政策范围的见解。

期刊介绍: Benchmarking is big news for companies committed to total quality programmes. Its enthusiastic reception by many prominent business figures has created high levels of interest in a technique which promises big rewards for co-operating partners. Yet, like total quality itself, it must be understood in its proper context, and implemented single mindedly if it is to be effective - this journal helps companies to decide if benchmarking is right for them, and shows them how to go about it successfully.
