This report is a very preliminary summary of the results of a study on the organization-level capacities that enable an organization to generate multiple new products or services over time. The intent is to develop the basis to assess the innovativeness of an organization, understand what managers need to change to improve their innovativeness, and identify how they can manage that change. This...

Initially, the paper is informed by literature from all three paradigms. The marketing perspective stresses the need to see products from the viewpoint of the consumer. Innovation and product differentiation are discussed, showing that incremental and style changes are frequently used in order to turn over sales. Design is almost not discussed in the marketing literature and although it is ackn...

A large amount of work has analysed systems approaches to innovation and investigated associated methods of innovation measurement. However, relatively little of this literature has discussed the measurement of eco-innovation. Policies and measures to promote eco-innovation are hampered by a lack of relevant data and indicators. Hence, the research reported here aimed to assess whether innovati...

1. OPEN INNOVATION Open innovation was defined by Henry Ches-broug, a professor at Harvard Business School, in 2003. He believes that in an open innovation model, companies should use internal and external strength to develop new products and to commercialize them (Chesbrough, 2005). Figure 1 shows the open innovation model. In the closed innovation model, the steps from new products developmen...

A exploitation and exploration enables success, even survival, but raises challenging tensions. Ambidextrous organizations excel at exploiting existing products to enable incremental innovation and at exploring new opportunities to foster more radical innovation, yet related research is limited. Largely conceptual, anecdotal, or single case studies offer architectural or contextual approaches. ...

This study builds a typology of organizational knowledge in business services and empirically examines the effects of knowledge on innovation performance. We suggest that firms differ with respect to their knowledge creation approaches and that these approaches have implications for firm performance in terms of innovation success. A conceptual framework of knowledge assets with degrees of tacit...

This paper examines the implications for research into the diffusion of innovations (DOI) arising from a growing body of literature in two related fields. The first area concerns the debate on the role of regional and national systems of innovation (NSI) in the innovation process. The second area deals with the argument that enterprises must move from a “closed innovation” to an “open innovatio...

The development of battery technologies is critical for energy transition strategies. This paper offers a comprehensive assessment the trends and developments innovation. Over 700,000 patents from period 2005-2019 are compiled analyzed. Leading patent applicants countries origin identified. Major mostly large East Asian companies, while Japan South Korea leading followed by US, Germany, China. ...

The improvement of industrial green TFP is crucial for the sustainability economy and environment. And eco-innovation directly improves TFP. However, there are few studies on relation between Based relevant data from 2006-2015 30 provinces in China, using SBM model this study firstly evaluates each province by measuring desirable output undesirable output. Then measured patent application quant...

Internal corporate venturing enables radical innovation within established firms in mature markets. Without effectively designed and managed internal corporate ventures, the organizational constraints of established firms will strongly favour incremental innovation over radical innovation. This paper investigates the evolution of a successful internal corporate venture within a large, incumbent...
