Expertise

My research deals with several aspects of open innovation, in which the contributions of external parties to the innovation process are a central theme.

In the first essay of my dissertation, I investigate customer participation in high-technology outsourced new product development. Specifically, I examine how the effect of customer participation on new product development success is influenced by relationship multiplexity (the situation in which the participating customer and developing supplier play additional roles).

In the second essay of my dissertation, I focus on motivating contestants of online idea generation contests, in which the online crowd participates in the innovation process. Specifically, I examine the effects of prize structure characteristics on the creativity of the ideas generated in the contest.

My data come from business: I work with many companies, including firms active in high-technology markets and businesses in social media.
