Research on Open Innovation

Nearly all of Joel’s research is in the area of innovation and entrepreneurship. Since 2004, he has been working specifically on open innovation — the paradigm created by Henry Chesbrough’s 2003 book of the same name — and helped edit a 2006 academic book and a 2014 book that are published by Oxford University Press.
