At this year's TechEd, SAP announced that it would partner with InnoCentive in order to pursue what they call open innovation. This podcast explains what open innovation is, how it could win you up to $25,000 in award money from SAP, and how it may change the development landscape at SAP altogether, so that some future contributions to SAP products are crowdsourced rather than developed internally.
