What is ‘open innovation’? “Open innovation is a paradigm that assumes that
companies can and should use external ideas as well as internal ideas, and internal and external paths to market, as they look to advance their technology. The boundaries between a company and its environment have become more permeable; innovations can easily transfer inward and outward. The central idea behind open innovation is that in a world of widely distributed knowledge, companies cannot afford to rely entirely on their own research..”
Chesbrough, H.W. (2003). Open Innovation: The new imperative for creating and profiting from technology. Boston: Harvard Business School Press
![Page 44: Satellite Applications Catapult Centre](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052522/54c7d5784a7959bb198b4581/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Catapult Operating Guidelines
• Prepared by TSB • Describe the working arrangements between TSB and the centres
e.g. • Governance • Funding model • Metrics • Intellectual Property • State Aid • Communications and branding • Freedom of Information • Relationship with other public bodies • Sustainability
• Will evolve as the network matures
![Page 45: Satellite Applications Catapult Centre](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052522/54c7d5784a7959bb198b4581/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Performance metrics – will be agreed with each centre
Potential examples:
• Increasing wealth creation arising from effective commercialisation of new technologies and applications fostered by the centres
• Intermediate measures: • Value of work won competitively • Number of new customers, projects, successful projects,
new customers/year, etc.
• Sustainability should also underpin the business model for all centres
