About this course

Overview and Outcomes.

Overview

Innovation looks different once profit stops driving it. This module moves from Chesbrough's closed and open innovation and his funnel to why the public sector cannot simply copy the market, the levels and drivers of public innovation, and Nesta's barriers and enabling mechanisms, from ideas factories to decommissioning. Procter and Gamble's Connect and Develop and e-Estonia's X-Road show openness designed in deliberately.

What you'll develop

In this Bitesize, you will develop the ability to:

  1. Explain Chesbrough's distinction between closed and open innovation and describe how ideas and value can flow both ways across an organisation's boundary.
  2. Identify why public sector innovation differs from market innovation and name the barriers in Nesta's taxonomy that stop good ideas surviving.
  3. Plan how to match an enabling mechanism, such as an open call, commissioning for outcomes or decommissioning, to the specific barrier your organisation faces.
