Open Innovation (OI) has proven to be important for the survival and growth not only of large but also of small firms. The way Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) have to organize and manage OI is also different from that of large companies. We will provide an overview of the current literature highlighting the main OI practices in SMEs and their benefits, challenges, and risks. Moreover, we also elaborate on the good practices of OI management and the transition from a closed to Open Innovation model along with the corresponding policy implications.
