Key points
- Open innovation research needs to move beyond a sole organizational-level focus.
- Future research should analyze open innovation across multiple levels of analysis.
- An integrative framework is proposed for comparing and contrasting different OI perspectives.
- New research categories and questions are suggested to connect previously isolated research domains.

Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the main perspectives and themes emerging in research on open innovation (OI). The paper is the result of a collaborative process among several OI scholars - having a common basis in the recurrent Professional Development Workshop on Researching Open Innovation' at the Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management. In this paper, we present opportunities for future research on OI, organised at different levels of analysis. We discuss some of the contingencies at these different levels, and argue that future research needs to study OI - originally an organisational-level phenomenon - across multiple levels of analysis. While our integrative framework allows comparing, contrasting and integrating various perspectives at different levels of analysis, further theorising will be needed to advance OI research. On this basis, we propose some new research categories as well as questions for future research - particularly those that span across research domains that have so far developed in isolation.
