Open innovation and industrial secrets

We have seen the example of Apple and its iPhone, result of extensive collaborations with startups to produce a best-selling product.

 

We are here in the very competitive sector of electronics products, with short cycles, intense competition on price, customers with high expectations ... in short all the factors requiring the use of  Open Innovation to reduce risks and take a strategic advantage over the competition.

 

Some might think that in this sector, it is easier to manage collaborations and that the notion of industrial secrets is less vital than in their own sector of activities.
