* Abstract: *
 Most of society's innovation systems--academic science, the patent system,
open source, etc.--are “open” in the sense that they are designed to
facilitate knowledge disclosure among innovators. An essential difference
across innovation systems is whether disclosure is of intermediate progress
and solutions or of completed innovations. We present experimental evidence
that links intermediate versus final disclosure not just with quantitative
tradeoffs that shape the rate of innovation, but with transformation of the
very nature of the innovation search process. We find intermediate
disclosure has the advantage of efficiently steering development towards
improving existing solution approaches, but also the effect of limiting
experimentation and narrowing technological search. We discuss the
comparative advantages of intermediate versus final disclosure policies in
fostering innovation.
