Abstract

Open innovation (OI) is one of the forms of innovation with the highest and best performance in modern management. It supposes the creation of multiple opportunities for the companies, without restrictions in the diverse typologies of these. SMEs, therefore, are organizations that must be committed to understanding, developing, and implementing applications derived from open innovation. Argued in the constant need of this business category to generate both new development opportunities, as well as improvements in its processes, thus arises the objective of this work; propose a conceptual structure for the implementation of open innovation management in family SMEs. Also motivated by the few existing studies in the literature on the implementation of IO in family SMEs. The methodology used for this research has been exploratory and with a qualitative approach. The proposal identified 4 dimensions, which are: Baseline, OI Ecosystem, Early OI, and Capital OI.
