This article conceptualizes open innovation using service system view and service-dominant logic (S-DL) to specify the generic characteristics of open innovation of service, which eliminates the discrepancy of open innovation between product and service. The main objective is to explicate the tripartite framework proposed by Lusch and Nambisan into six generic characteristics to serve as vocabulary in formulating open innovation of service strategies. The business cases are categorized by 2x2 grid according to the institutionalization of actors into the service ecosystems. There are six essential characteristics of open innovation of service grounded in S-D logic: (1) interaction within and among service systems, (2) integration of operand and operant resources, (3) open platform, (4) exchange mechanism, (5) value proposition, and (6) network of actors. To summarize, the strategies are formulated using the six characteristics for each category of business in three layers, micro, meso, macro, to sustain the practice of open innovation in various industries.

A value proposition is important to businesses and their success, because it analyses the needs of customers or users and what they are willing to pay for. This study aims to make explicit the process of integrating/involving the customer/user in the innovation process and of conceptualizing customer value creation, by identifying different perspectives of value and customer/user engagement. Potential ways for gaining added business value through a suitable value proposition based on crowdsourcing are examined. Open innovation is investigated as a tool for integrating customers/users in the innovation process, in particularly in the ideation stage of innovation. Crowdsourcing is a paradigm that assumes that companies can and should use external ideas in addition to internal ideas for creating value and assume that internal ideas can be taken to market by external channels, outside the current business of the company. Online social networks are particularly suitable channels for engaging customers and users for a common goal regarding innovation, problem solving, and efficiency.

In recent years, the way organizations innovate and develop new solutions has changed considerably. Moving from ‘behind the closed doors’ style of innovating to open innovation where collaboration with outsiders is encouraged, organizations are in the pursuit of more effective ways to accelerate their innovation outcomes. As a result, organizations are establishing creative and entrepreneurial ecosystems, which not only empower employees but also involve many others to co-create new solutions. In this paper, we present a methodology for organizing hackathons, i.e. competition-based events where small teams work over a short period of time to ideate, design, prototype and test their ideas following a user-centric approach to solve a specific challenge. This paper also provides insights into two different hackathons organized in the United Kingdom, and Mexico, as well as a series of 5 hackathons organized in Argentina, Mexico, Switzerland, United Kingdom and in Senegal.

In recent history, different design approaches have been entering fields like management and strategy to improve product development and service delivery. Specifically, entrepreneurship has adopted a user-centric mindset in methodologies like the business canvas model and the value proposition canvas which increases the awareness of the users’ needs when developing solutions. What happens when a service design approach is used to understand the entrepreneurs’ experience through the creation of their startups? Recent literature suggests that entrepreneurial activity and success is conditioned by their local entrepreneurship ecosystem. This study investigates the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem of Medellín, Colombia - an ecosystem in constant growth but that lacks qualitative analysis. The sample consists of 12 entrepreneurs in early-stage phase. The data was gathered with two design research methods: Cultural Probes and Semi-structured interviews. The analysis of the information collected facilitated the development of 4 insights about the entrepreneurs and an experience map to visualise and interpret their journey to create a startup. The results of this study reflected the implications of the ecosystem, the explanation of the users’ perceptions and awareness and propose a set of ideas to the local government to improve the experience of undertaking a startup in Medellín.
