Unravelling appropriability mechanisms and openness depth effects on firm performance across stages in the innovation process (2017, background): “Many studies remain focused on manufacturing industries (e.g. Vega-Jurado et al., 2009; Wadhwa and Kotha, 2006) but several also investigate the linkages between open innovation and performance in services (Love and Mansury, 2007;Mention and Asikainen, 2012).”
Open, Semi-Open and Closed Innovators: Towards an Explanation of Degree of Openness (2010, background): “For analyses focused on breadth, see, for example, Laursen and Salter (2006), Nieto and Santamarı́a (2007) or Vega-Jurado et al. (2009).”
Does the development of environmental innovation require different resources? Evidence from Spanish manufacturing firms (2015, background): “As supported by several studies, the impact of networking activities on innovation performance varies according to the range of external partners involved (see e.g. Miotti and Sachwald, 2003; Laursen and Salter, 2006; Vega-Jurado et al., 2009).”
Keep searching and you’ll find: what do we know about variety creation through firms’ search activities for innovation? (2012, background): “These findings are generally corroborated and further qualified by Tether and Tajar (2008), Grimpe and Sofka (2009), Vega-Jurado et al. (2009) and Leiponen and Helfat (2010), for instance.”
