One of them should be focused on basic research and the other on more mature technologies. To this end, we first expose the definitions of CDI and the concepts of the triple helix and the Technology Readiness Level, used to separate the arenas. We also explain the concept behind open innovation and describe what should be open innovation arenas. Then, we detail the model for the hypothetical arenas, based on Swedish examples and framework.

The two main objectives are to define a priority order for agreements in STI and for technologies in a specific field based on a multicriteria method known as Analytic Hierarchy Process. The idea is to use a new set of criteria that consider quantitative parameters related to the number of patent registers, published papers and business publications and to a measure of the alignment between the organizations/technologies and the strategic goals of the organization seeking their partnership/prioritization.
