Interorganizational Collaboration in Innovation Networks: An Agent Based Model for Responsible Research and Innovation in Additive Manufacturing

The significant progress in scientific research and innovation has led to the need for a new paradigm legitimise process society politics. European Union, with Horizon 2020 framework program Europe, institutionalises this change by defining concept of responsible (RRI), aiming at greater inclusiveness sustainability processes. This paper aimed present an agent-based model (ABM) simulate dynamics between different actors that cooperate within networks during process, taking inclinations toward RRI practices into account. types agent, their characteristics, strategies they follow have been formulated project I AM RRI-Webs Innovation Value Chains (IVCs) Additive Manufacturing (AM) under consideration RRI. Besides, some experiments are reported validate model, ensuring its rigor making our useful tool policymakers, assisting them strategic guidelines disseminating encouraging best critical factors innovative cooperative process.
