Nowadays, the main objective of business organizations is to increase competitiveness, which is why open innovation appears as a facilitating process in business development and growth. With this in mind, the aim of this article is to recognize the willingness of companies to interact with other actors in the environment, for example universities, in order to generate collaborative processes. For this purpose, we carried out an analysis of qualitative variables by means of questionnaires to some SMEs -small and medium-sized enterprises- in the manufacturing sector in Bogotá, and to professors and researchers of Universidad Distrital. Based on the results, the study formulated an integration model that characterizes the key factors for the development of open innovation processes among the actors that were analyzed. The integration model proposed seeks to highlight the factors that may be relevant for the actors under study, so that, it is possible to clearly define the methodologies, agreements, and platforms to be used between the parties, guaranteeing the importance of the factors that were identified and assuring that there is no limit between them in the open innovation processes. The analysis allows to conclude that the implementation of this paradigm implies the establishment of trusting relationships, the willingness of the parties, the structuring of an innovation management model, and the definition of copyrights together with clear and specific cooperation agreements.
