在“开放式创新实验室”中反思工业

Rethinking Industry in Open Innovation Laboratories

随着技术在工业领域之外的迅速扩张,消费者也越来越有兴趣参与到创新过程中来。除了在互联网上的各种合作形式之外,人们也打造了许多不同的可以供人亲自参与到创新活动中的空间场所。这些场所可以称为开放式创新实验室。本文将基于技术哲学的基本观点,研究创新是如何在这些空间中发生的,并探讨这里的创新实践对于一般创新观念的启发意义及其在经济变革中的作用。

With the increasing the spread of technology outside of industry, consumers have become more interesting as participants in innovation processes. In addition to various forms of collaboration on the internet , different kinds of spaces have lately been established where people can meet in person to engage in innovation activities. These spaces can be addressed as open innovation laboratories. Based on general considerations from the philosophy of technology, this paper studies how innovation is practiced in such spaces and discusses the implications of these practices for the general notion of innovation and its role for economic change.
