Abstract
This paper presents and analyzes the Continuous Innovation Network (CINet) and its development over time from the perspective of community of practice theory. In contrast to most of the existing literature, this research has focused on an inter-organizational community. It appears the differences between intra- and inter-organizational communities are small. Furthermore, the research identified a range of factors whose interplay influences the development of this kind of communities. The paper is concluded with a number of recommendations for the further development of CINet.
