In recent decades, awareness has grown of the fact that we must solve major challenges in order to protect the environmental conditions of our earth. These include sustainable energy supplies, (preventive) healthcare, transport and mobility, food supplies, clean air and drinking water, safety and security, the complete reuse of (scarce) resources and more. Open Innovation enables the efficient use of scarce R&D resources. It speeds up developments and enables participating parties to combine their strengths. The current challenges faced by society are complex. Solutions require the well-orchestrated contributions of many highly-specialized disciplines. Society and its governing processes can be seen as a complex dynamic system in transition. The open innovation
infrastructure may be viewed as the control environment that creates solutions for these problems. The outcomes of the projects realized by collaborating partners drive complex societal processes to the point at which they meet the envisaged conditions.
