Abstract

“Open Innovation” activities are of crucial importance in the
Research and Development (R&D) department, especially for survival
among enterprises in the competitive nature. There has been an
increasing interest in “Open Innovation”. However, the rate of interest
has yet to be measured by publications trends. This study aims to
demonstrate the trends of “Open Innovation” from 2012 to 2017 and
highlight the key-phrases for the selected topic. In this bibliometric
study, a total of 3,567 publications were investigated in the SCOPUS
database using SciVal platform. The concept of “Open Innovation” has
received considerable attentions since 2003, and the highly cited paper
was published by Chesbrough. The top 50 key-phrases by relevancy
indicated the importance of “Open Innovation” and other emerging
research areas, giving a guideline for future research.
