The study of the level of adopting open innovation (OI) in Gazan incubators' micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) aims to investigate to what extent these enterprises adopt and apply the different practices of OI.
These practices are divided into eight main practices as the following: venturing, outward intellectual property (IP), the participation of non R&D staff in the innovation process, the participation of customers in the innovation process, external networks, external participation, R&D outsourcing and licensing- in.
In order to achieve this purpose, the research followed the descriptive, analytical approach to answer the research questions and test the research hypotheses.
A questionnaire was designed as a main data collection tool, in addition to that informal interviews were conducted and helped to enrich the result of this research.
The research population was the incubated enterprises in the business incubators in the Gaza strip which amounted to 143 successful enterprises and a comprehensive survey of all these enterprises was conducted.
The results of the analysis confirmed that the most widely accepted and applied OI practices by MSMEs are customer involvement and the participation of non R&D staff in the innovation process.
After that, the practices that have tended to practice weakly are external networks, external participation, outward IP and venturing.
The weakest practices applied by MSMEs -although their importance - are the using of external R & D services and licensing-in.
The research also showed that the characteristics of the enterprises as (to which incubator it belongs, whether the incubation period ended or not, year of establishing and the location of the company) did not affect of any activities or practices of OI.
