An open innovation portal tells the world your company is “open for business.” It’s the easiest and most straight-forward way to invite, collect, filter, and assess external innovations and ideas.
Open innovation portals play a significant role in an open innovation strategy. A fully customized open innovation portal and submission management system aligned with corporate branding and messaging helps companies attract and discover new and emerging technologies and market opportunities, support the pipeline of innovation, and facilitate building an open innovation partnership ecosystem.
There are many ways to get your open innovation portal up and running: you can build and manage it internally, you can outsource it, you can partner with open innovation experts.
yet2’s research shows that building an open innovation portal with a partner is $500,000 more cost effective compared with building one internally. But the ROI of an open innovation portal goes far beyond that number.
