چکیده
این مطالعه تمایل شرکتهای خانوادگی به استفاده از مدل نوآوری مشتری باز و همچنین مزایای همکاری با مشتریان بین شرکتهای خانوادگی و غیر خانوادگی را بررسی میکند. این دیدگاه جغرافیایی و اندازه شرکت را به عنوان دو شرط مرزی برای نوآوری در شرکتهای خانوادگی اعمال میکند و مکانیسمی را مورد بحث قرار میدهد که شرکتهای خانوادگی را قادر میسازد تا بازده بیشتری برای مدل نوآوری مشتری باز در بازار داخلی به دست آورند. در انجام این کار، ما با استفاده از دادههای طولی 21140 مشاهدات با 17859 نوآورترین شرکتهای بریتانیا در طی سالهای 2002-2014، مقایسهای بسیار مورد نیاز در مورد «چگونگی» نوآوری شرکتهای خانوادگی ارائه میکنیم. ما متوجه شدیم که هم شرکتهای خانوادگی و هم شرکتهای غیرخانوادگی با مشتری در نوآوری باز مشارکت میکنند، با این حال شرکتهای خانوادگی از همکاری با مشتریان در بازارهای داخلی سود بیشتری میبرند و اندازه شرکت این رابطه را تعدیل میکند. پیامدها برای مالک-مدیران و سیاست گذاران ممکن است به ایجاد سیاست های نوآوری باز ویژه منطقه با مشارکت بیشتر مشتری در فرآیند نوآوری کمک کند.

Abstract
This study examines the propensity of family firms to employ the open customer innovation model as well as the benefits from collaboration with customers between family and non-family firms. It applies the geographical and firm size perspective as two boundary conditions for innovation in family firms and discusses the mechanism enabling family firms to achieve greater returns to open customer innovation model in domestic market. In doing so we provide a much-needed comparison on “how” family firms innovate, using longitudinal data of 21,140 observations with 17,859 most innovative UK firms during 2002–2014. We find that both family and non-family firms engage with customer in open innovation, however family firms benefit more from collaboration with customers in domestic markets, with firm size moderating this relationship. Implications for owner-managers and policymakers may help create region-specific open innovation policies with greater customer involvement in innovation process.
Introduction
Since Schumpeter (1934), policymakers and managers have used a “producers’ model” of innovation. This model assumes that the most important innovations would originate from producers and be supplied to customers (users of innovation) (Von Hippel, 2010). This view has dominated the innovation landscape, with innovators who serve many customers investing more in innovation than any single user (Christofi et al., 2018, Vrontis and Christofi, 2019). The producers’ model has evolved with an increased emphasis on a unique position of users who benefit directly from innovations and increase market competition (Baldwin & von Hippel, 2010). The open user innovation model has been developed (Von Hippel, 2001) assuming that innovations are developed for users and users who may share the costs of innovation, reduce innovation development time and uncertainty in adoption of innovation.
Conclusion
The theoretical and empirical research on innovation in family firms has grown exponentially in recent years (Vrontis, Bresciani and Giacosa, 2016; Vrontis and Christofi, 2019, Belyaeva et al., 2020). While family firms favor knowledge co-creation processes with external stakeholders such as employees, customers, end-users, policymakers, industry and academic institutions (Del Vecchio et al., 2020) work together to create innovation (Santoro et al., 2018, Santoro et al., 2021, Leonidou et al., 2020). Open customer innovation models as a form of stakeholder engagement have received a growing interest from academics and practitioners as a research topic (Pantano, Priporas, Viassone, & Migliano, 2019). Although family businesses may appear to already have an advantage in working with customers, our study demonstrates that family firms are more likely to benefit from open innovation with customers regionally and nationally despite similar willingness to use open innovation with customers.
