Horizon is hosting an innovation theme day to engage academic and industrial partners in exploring the ‘business
and innovation’ challenges in the digital economy. The theme day will provide a forum focusing on the challenges
that arise when firms move away from proprietary to a more open approach towards accessing, managing, and
developing assets; and from goods-dominant business logics to service-oriented models.

The aims of the workshop will be to:

1. Underline some of the key contemporary business and innovation challenges (deploying theory and
evidence based research)
