Open source the research! I know people don't think this is the best way for a company to do R&D, but it will get tons of people that are interested in whatever you're doing to help for free and as a bonus you can find some great talent. Also, I'm not saying you need to give away the keys to your company. You could only open source select parts of the R&D to not give away your secrets.
Will they though? It requires that some of the target audience are capable to contribute, which is rare in my experience.
It really depends on what kind of project it is. Not everything will have a big appeal but if it doesn't how big is your target audience going to be for the product really.
