This research seeks to understand the interactions among stakeholders supporting Open-Source Hardware Business Models (OSHBMs). To answer our research question “what is the nature of the interaction among stakeholders in OSHBMs at a city level”, the authors conducted a qualitative explorative case study of the city of Barcelona, home to over 1,340...

... data collection includes ten hours of semi-directed interviews with 15 actors, representing 13 respondents. For purposes of anonymity, all names were changed to alphabetical letters (a-m in Table 3). Face-to-face interviews focused on the stakeholders' own scope of activities relating to OSH, the nature of their interactions with other stakeholders, their understanding of Barcelona specifics conducive to OSH, and finally, their identification of value created by OSH initiatives (see Appendix A). ...Similar publications

... Research has shown that open source sharing is fundamental to supporting a circular economy and to environmental transition work (Raworth, 2018). Essentially this means that innovations when shared with a global community become faster, cheaper and more efficient (Thomas, Evrard-Samuel, 2022). This requires a mindset shift from ego-based desires and intent to a bigger-thanself perspective to be of service to others and to the planet. ...
This study explores the intent of designers involved in design for sustainability and how responsible innovation can be collectively implemented. To do so, a case study using situational analysis was conducted with graduates of the Fabricademy program: a 6-month program on textiles and new technologies taught in a distributed manner out of the Fab Lab Network, focused on the value of open-source sharing and a hands-on approach to learning. In a context where both designers and consumers find the fashion industry increasingly devoid of purpose and connection, building skills through collective intelligence empowers actors in systemic transition, pointing to alternative pathways. Our findings indicate how the pedagogical approach of the Fabricademy program builds the technological literacy and self-awareness of learners so that they may transform products, services, systems and practices. We discuss these findings in light of dimensions for responsible innovation: anticipation, reflexivity, inclusion and responsiveness.
For the time being, there is limited research focused on open innovation approaches that promote the development and growth of stakeholder‐driven circular economy models. This article addresses this knowledge gap. Its objectives are threefold: Firstly, it describes key elements of open innovation and circular value cocreation. Secondly, it utilizes the findings from a comprehensive systematic review to identify opportunities and challenges related to the open circular innovation paradigm. Thirdly, it presents theoretical implications and an action plan, alongside future research avenues, that highlight the importance of engaging in collaborative behaviors with stakeholders. It emphasizes a cocreation culture that encourages the sharing of resources, competencies, and capabilities, while safeguarding the organizations' intellectual properties. Such practices aim to foster coupled innovation and support circular economy strategies like resource recovery, reverse logistics, and industrial symbiosis, among others. Unlike many other articles, this contribution clearly specifies that there is scope for practitioners to develop circular economy ecosystems that increase the practitioners' bottom lines, while reducing their environmental impacts.
