To date numerous results on innovation research have been published, however, the literature on innovation does not offer conclusive findings and guidelines for practice. The research and practice of innovation are fragmented and centered on specific cases. The literature does not present a unified theory of innovation. Innovation in any domain could be enhanced by principles and insights from ...

Information System (IS) Security threats is still a major concern for many organisations. However, most organisations fall short in achieving a successful adoption and implementation of IS security measures. In this paper, we developed a theoretical model for the adoption process of IS Security innovations in organisations. The model was derived by combining four theoretical models of innovatio...

nnovation does not necessarily proceed linearly from basic scientific research to product development; it is an iterative process of both matching market needs to technological capabilities and conducting research to fill gaps in knowledge, whether during product conception, product design, manufacturing, marketing, or other phases of the innovation process. Commercial success depends as much o...

The concept of open innovation has attracted great interest from the academic and industrial sectors alike. Despite the ongoing debate, we can see some lack of consistency of its principles. The purpose of this paper is to set out a conceptual reflection on the foundations of innovation and its process and discuss new proposals from the literature on open innovation. We question whether this co...

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...

Innovation is key to technology adoption and creation, and to explaining the vast differences in productivity across and within countries. Despite the central role of the entrepreneur in the innovation process, data limitations have restricted standard analysis of the determinants of innovation to consideration of the role of firm characteristics. We develop a model of innovation which incorpor...

In this paper, Innovation on technological point of view will be explored. Some tracks for helping for innovative aspects as well as the role of PSE and CAPE methodologies will be analyzed. Some new directions will be proposed as well as some examples of success will be enlighted.

In this paper, a stochastic diffusion model of a Financial Innovation introducing to a financial institute is presented in order to validate the influence of the diffusion speed in any business line with different rates. The paper is structured in three sections. In section 1 we discuss and analyzing the FI and in section 2 we represent a stochastic process that shows the diffusion of FI, with ...

Being able to innovate has become a critical capability for many contemporary organizations in an effort to sustain their operations in the long run. However, existing innovation models that attempt to guide organizations emphasize different aspects of innovation (e.g., products, services or business models), different stages of innovation (e.g., ideation, implementation or operation) or differ...
