Abstract

The modern concepts go beyond traditional approaches for developing innovation
based primarily on exploiting the internal R&D resources. Thus, they are increasingly
promoting the use of external ideas, resources and knowledge for the firms’ innovation
process. Nowadays, companies employ the concept of open innovation to search the
possibilities for generating innovation impulses and improving the innovation performance.
This is of particular importance for SMEs having limited innovation capacities to improve
their innovation performance and to successfully respond the challenges emerging from
dynamically changing competitive environment. Hence, the paper aims at: a) providing a
review of the current research relating to the concept of open innovation and SMEs; b)
identifying the main determinants to implement the open innovation strategies as a major
prerequisite for improving the innovation performance of SMEs.
