Reviews
Open Labs (i.e., incubators, makerspaces, fab labs, etc.) have become a major phenomenon of interest in innovation studies, reflecting that they have become massively prevalent over the last decade and a half. However, little is still known about them in terms of the motives and backgrounds of their members, their dynamics and their need for management. Valerie Merindol and David Versailles have collected a strong set of papers on open labs that is certain to become a reference in this emerging research space for years to come. Professor Nicolai J. Foss, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark In this book, reference researchers provide a rigorous, in-depth study of the open lab phenomena. Combining rich empirical material and solid analytical framework integrating multiple dimensions of management science, they show that the promises of open labs will only be fulfilled by relying on rigorous management of the innovation processes and the variety of innovation capacities. Pascal Le Masson, MINES ParisTech, PSL, France Open Labs and Innovation Management edited by Valerie Merindol and David W. Versailles truly hits a sweet spot. By addressing the crucial role of labs as boundary spaces in a carefully selected series of chapters, this book opens new perspectives for the future of innovation management. Prof. Dr. Kathrin Moeslein, Friedrich-Alexander-Universitaet Erlangen-Nuernberg, Germany Former President (2020-2022), European Academy of Management (EURAM)

As ecosystem-based innovation becomes increasingly the norm, this important book paves the way for developing best practices for orchestrating such ecosystems.
