Abstract
The chapter aims at investigating the different implementation modes of open innovation (OI) adopted by companies when engaging with startups. In the last years, a significant body of literature has been published on OI-related issues. Research on OI is multidisciplinary and scattered among different fields of research. Based on this, the authors perform a comprehensive and systemized literature review to identify and describe the most critical issues to be considered when companies engage with startups. Specifically, they aim to identify the main barriers to corporate-startup collaboration and, in doing so, to provide a comprehensive framework able to shed new light on the proposed issue and to provide guidance to future research directions.
