Organizing Open Social Innovation For Societal Challenges: Unlocking the Potential of Open Spaces
研究了制造实验室等开放空间如何组织和扩大开放式社会创新，揭示其关键机制，对学者和实践者都有参考价值。
Open Social Innovation (OSI) is gaining increasing attention in discourses among scholars and practitioners as a new approach to addressing grand challenges. However, little is known about how to organize such OSI efforts. To address this gap, this article explores the role of open spaces, especially fabrication laboratories (fab labs), in orchestrating and scaling OSI efforts. Using a qualitative investigation, the findings reveal key mechanisms enabled by fab labs to orchestrate the OSI process and scale its outcomes. Implications for research, society, and practice are then discussed.
