Chapter 4:
Foreign Innovators and Open innovation

We examine immigrant innovators outsider trailblazers their identity, nature in which they developed and their effect on their space of specialization. We analyze the phenomena of "virtual immigration" generated by MNCs' R&D centers and aqui-hiring startups abroad. Behind the idea of "acqui-hiring" the creative capability of the human capital is the target in excess of a decent money-related activity.

Discontinuous open innovation by foreign innovators

Defense and security

Manhattan Project

Paving the way to and amid the Manhattan Project, significant alliance effort amongst American and immigrants European-born researchers occurred (Fermi, 1986).

Before practical work on the nuclear bomb was even imagined, generous hypothetical work by the European displaced people who touched base amid 1930 and 1937 to the United States laid the foundation.
The most noteworthy work was finished by Eugene Wigner and Edward Teller from Hungary, George Gamow from Russia, Felix Bloch from Switzerland, Hans Bethe from Germany, and Victor Weisskopf from Austria. This hypothetical underpinning made ready for Niels Bohr, born in Denmark, and Enrico Fermi born in Italy to make their leap forward.

Edward Teller and George Gamow had set up a progression of gatherings among astronomers and hypothetical physicists who shared the objective of investigating the key issues of the period.

It was at a Washington gathering in 1939 that Bohr and Fermi first openly tended to the possibility that neutrons were transmitted when uranium fission happens. This opened the best approach to "chain response" and the improvement of the nuclear and nuclear bombs.

Four of the atomic researchers who went to the United States from Europe in the 1930s, later got a Nobel Prize for physics: Felix Bloch, born in Switzerland, won it in 1952, Emilio Segre (Italy) won in 1959, and Maria Mayer (Poland) and Eugene Wigner (Hungary) won the honor in 1963.

Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), has made the main US satellites starting by Explorer 1.1t is the main organization on the planet that has effectively sent a shuttle to all the eight planets in the Solar System (Hiro Ono, 2016).

Among the organizers of JPL is the primary Lab Director Dr. Theodore von Karman from Hungary and Dr. Xuesen Qian from China. The third Director Louis Dunn was from South Africa and the fourth Director Bill Pickering was from New Zealand.

Among the three pioneers holding up the model of Explorer 1, two were migrants: JPL Director Bill Pickering was from New Zealand, and Dr. Wernher von was from Germany.

Dr. Wernher von Braun, a previous individual of the Nazi Party and SS was the primary Director of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and drove the development of the Saturn V rocket that sent twelve American space explorers to the Moon.

Charles Elachi from Lebanon began to work at Jet Propulsion Laboratory JPL in 1970 on Earth-watching missions, planetary investigation, and astronomy. He developed radar remote detecting systems. He led of the science group working with the radar instrument on board the Cassini rocket(robotics.jpl.nasa site).

At JPL he is building the self-sufficient driving calculation for NASA's next Mars meanderer, broken market development,, which will travel to the red planet in 2020 (mainichi.jp; robotics.jpl.nasa sites).

Unmanned Aircraft Vehicle (UAV)

The Pentagon in the 70's encouraged Unmanned Aircraft Vehicle (UAV). The Aquila, the first UAV required 30 individuals to dispatch it, flew for minutes on end and smashed by and large every 20 flight hours.

Abe Karem, US immigrant originated from Israel, utilizing compressed wood, home-made fiberglass and a two-stroke motor of the kind typically found in go-karts proposed a more efficient and cheaper UAV.

The automation, code-named Albatross, was produced by only three architects. After a flight trial of 56 hours, DARPA, the exploration arm of America's military, subsidized Mr. Karem to scale it up into a more skilled automaton called Amber.

By 1986 Amber automatons was flying for over a multi-day without landing, achieving elevations of almost 30,000 feet and working securely even in a terrible climate.
Monetary weight constrained Mr. Karem to pitch Leading Systems to Hughes Aircraft, who thusly sold it to another guard contractual migrant, General Atomics.
The chief of the CIA requested that General Atomics propose a UAV program and they said it would cost $100m and take five. Karem proposed it for $5m in three months. As guaranteed, the Gnat 750 was flying over Bosnia inside months, handing-off live video feeds to the Pentagon by means of a kept an eye on airship and a satellite ground station.

By July 1994 General Atomics had integrated satellite connections into the Gnat itself, giving the automaton a tenderly adjusted nose that gave a false representation of its antagonistic new name: Predator. Today the Department of Defense has more than 6,000 UAVs, including hundreds in view of the Predator.

Disruptive open innovation by foreign innovators

C2C auction online service

By mid-1997, eBay had become the one of the most visited sites on the Web, with more than 150,000 users bidding on 794,000 auctions every day. eBay has become one of the hottest sites on the Internet and has revolutionized e-commerce.

Pierre Omidyar an US immigrant from France started EBay with Pez candy dispensers in 1994. His wife complained that she couldn’t find like-minded Pez dispenser collectors on the Internet economictimes website). So Omidyar began an auction service on his personal web page to find her Pez community. From that moment he launched an online auction service — Auction Web Within three years of that launch, Omidyar was inducted into the billion dollar club, thanks to its IPO in 1998.

Omidyar simply offered a place where users could go online, interact and bid for items. Collectors of Barbie dolls, Beanie Babies seized upon eBay almost immediately (entrepreneur website).

Online C2C online messenger service

Online customer to customer and community to community messenger service took several years in order to be a common behavior of millions. Jan Koum a US immigrant from Ukraine (thefamouspeople, jan-koum site), and Brian Acton, his colleague from Yahoo the WhatsApp Messenger in mid-2010. They were confronted numerous difficulties in advancing the application. Bit by bit WhatsApp wound up prevalent with the clients and received as an intermittent innovation proposing in the telephone call showcase zero cost global calls.
The client base of WhatsApp became consistently finished the months and by February 2013, it had around 200 million dynamic clients. The rising fame of WhatsApp caught the eye of the web-based life goliath Facebook which obtained WhatsApp for US$ 19 billion of every 2014.

Its portfolio of Enterprise Intelligence Solutions and Security Intelligence Solutions™ helps worldwide organizations capture and analyze complex, underused information sources such as voice, video and unstructured text to enable more timely, effective decisions.

Computer algorithm for building construction

The built object can be conceived by computer, then transformed in a network of complex virtual simulations. Instead of multiple drafts and revisions, buildings would be designed using a computer algorithm that could ingest multiple parameters and spit out hundreds of viable options.
In 2007, while remodeling the cellar of his Saratoga, California home Deepak Aatresh, an US immigrant from India, happened to see a period slip from the video of a building site (Shulman, 2013). In the first place, the earth-moving gear touched base to evacuate the earth. At that point, different materials were added to make a mindboggling three-dimensional structure. He understood this was precisely how we construct chips. He comprehended that the manufactured protest can be brought about by PC. Aatresh picked medicinal services development segment. The existence cycle of a doctor's facility, in which different machines and divisions become outdated at various rates, helped him to remember swapping out parts on a PC motherboard. Aatresh characterized the thought as a disruptive technology to this industry proposed by a vertically coordinated engineering, plan, and development organization, protecting better cost and esteem viability. Aditazz in 2010 developed this concept in small hospitals.

Infant cereal

In 1867, Henri Nestlé a German immigrant to Switzerland, understood that by including calcium phosphates, ferruginous salts, meat extract and different parts he could create flours with very particular properties for the wiped out or improving, and he in this manner continued plans for a newborn child cereal as well as for an uncommon "tonic" variant for individuals who required building up (Nestlé site).
Nestlé's newborn child cereal was conceived. associated watchwords of "wellbeing" and "health".

Digital watch

In the 1970's when everybody needed to have quartz timing in their watch, the Japanese brands of Seiko and Citizen were reserving strong deals a seemingly endless amount of time.

In the mid 1980's, with not a single plan to be found and with Japanese watch-production mammoths promptly hoping to purchase up and redo old brands, a legislature designated gathering of Swiss banks enlisted Hayek a Swiss immigrant from Lebanon, to assess and write about how the Swiss watchmakers would be most viably sold (Pope, 2010).

Hayek began combining two of the household business pioneers, Asuag and SSIH and gained for himself a larger part stake in the new gathering currently called Société Suisse de Microélectronique et d'Horlogerie or SMH.

In 1983, seemingly the greatest occasion in watch promoting happened when "Swatch" was presented. It was a plastic watch offered in a wild rainbow scope of hues including only fifty-one sections, intermittent innovation development, and fueled by a battery and a quartz precious stone. The new brand ended up notable and given the cost - $35- - and the scope of hues it turned into a mold accomplice to be coordinated with shoes and attire. It denoted the first occasion when that numerous customers effectively pondered owning something beyond one watch.

The program of the Swatch Group, which notwithstanding Swatch today contains top of the line watch brands like Breguet, Omega, Longines, Tissot, Calvin Klein and Mido, made Mr. Hayek one of Switzerland's wealthiest men (Fox, 2010). The Swatch rapidly turned into a search after collector’s item around the world. It was likely the first occasion when that customary individual had even thought about owning different watches.

MNCs open innovation by foreign innovators

Introduction

R&D centers of MNC's in the global market is a less costly and more efficient way of integrating innovative knowledge developed by foreign innovators all around the world. Those inventors could be former migrants who came back home. They could be also local professionals who did not intend to emigrate.

The knowledge emigrates but not the innovators. This knowledge is owned by the MNC and not by the country or the professionals hired by the research center.

Between 2000 and 2015, the number of MNC R&D centers in emerging countries grew by a factor of five, while in U.S., Japan and Europe, this number merely doubled (Von Zedtwitz and Gassmann, 2016). Herewith we analyze the case of China, India and Israel. The idea "acqui-hiring" reflects rivalry for ability of open innovation through acquisitions in innovation showcase (Makinen et al, 2012).

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, told at a 2010 gathering of people that Facebook purchase organizations to get exceptional individuals (Hindman and Zukerberg, 2010).

Ability driven transfers incorporate Twitter's acquisitions of Summify in January 2012 and Posterous in March 2012 (Issac, 2012; Segall, 2012), Google's obtaining of Milk in March 2012 (Tsotis, 2012) and RestEngine by Twitter on May 2012 (Costine, 2012). In March 2016 Toyota procured Jaybridge Robotics, a man-made brainpower programming firm situated in Cambridge, Mass and has enrolled Jaybridge's 16-man group for its Research Institute, situated in Silicon Valley (Ackett, 2016).
In China and India they are seeking for disruptive and discontinuous innovations and in Israel for discontinuous innovations. Herewith we present the R&D strategy of MNCs' in China India and Israel followed by the R&D strategy analysis of selected MNCs in those countries.

General Electric (GE)

General Electric developed in China and India discontinuous innovation in aeronautics and a wide range of medical disruptive innovations adapted to the local market and transformed it to discontinuous innovation adapted to advanced countries (reverse innovation).
