 Les partenariats public-privé et leur place dans l'innovation hospitalière: quels enseignements pour le management hospitalier ?Faïz Gallouj, Céline Merlin-Brogniart and Anne-Catherine Moursli-Provost Innovations, 2015, vol. n° 46, issue 1, 161-195 Abstract: Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are forms of cooperation between the public and private sectors that have been undeniably successful in Europe in recent years. Often grounded in the assumption that private organizations would have a positive impact on the efficiency of public organizations, PPPs are now also regarded as mechanisms for producing innovations in services. The goal of this paper is to highlight the place of PPPs in innovation dynamics in hospitals by mobilizing and applying theoretical models of innovation in services to an in-depth case study of a complex innovation-oriented PPP. This is about uncovering the multifaceted nature of innovation in hospitals involved in PPPs at inter-organizational, organizational and intra-organizational levels. PPPs can indeed be a fertile terrain not only for medical, technological, programmed and top-down innovations, but also for non-medical, non-technological, bottom-up and non-programmed innovations, and for which we should not neglect the involved actors.
