These five chapters are illustrative of themes in current research that are shaping the field of strategic management technology and innovation. They build well on earlier work in the field and thereby support its further empirical and theoretical development. They also provide useful insights for practicing managers faced with the challenges of changing technologies and a rapid rate of innovation.

Book European Perspectives on Innovation Management

Download or read book European Perspectives on Innovation Management written by Rob Dekkers and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-30 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers European perspectives on innovation management, including new product and service development, due to the inherent variety of socio-economic perspectives and institutional settings in Europe. The numerous settings and differing perspectives explored in the chapters exemplify diversity, which ultimately leads to enhancing innovation. Understanding such unique approaches will enable companies, universities and other actors to more effectively create innovative products and services, and policy makers to effectively stimulate growth and innovation. The fragmented, distributed economies in Europe also put a strong focus on internationalisation, including innovation management, new product and service development, even within the internally open market of the European Economic Area. European Perspectives on Innovation Management will be of help to researchers, managers, entrepreneurs, practitioners and students working on innovation management and practices embedded in national and regional innovation systems, thus fostering a more innovative Europe.

Book Technology  Innovation and Industrial Economics  Institutionalist Perspectives

Download or read book Technology Innovation and Industrial Economics Institutionalist Perspectives written by Dilmus D. James and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology, Innovation and Industrial Economics: Institutional Perspectives, inspired by the work of William E. Cole, Professor Emeritus at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, extends his work with essays on technology, innovation and industrial economics from an Institutionalist perspective. The managerial style, innovational practices and industrial setting of the continuous improvement firm are central to several chapters. This volume also features innovation and technology in Latin America, Adam Smith's writing on entrepreneurship and a comparison of American and European Institutionalism. The topics of technology, innovation, industrial organization and industrial policy are being widely discussed and debated in today's literature, but seldom from an Institutionalist perspective. The purpose of this book is to reduce substantially this missing dimension in the ongoing debates on these important issues.

Book Innovation for Value and Mission

Download or read book Innovation for Value and Mission written by Peet van Biljon and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation. No other concept is so widely celebrated, yet so secretly dreaded. The reason: innovation requires managing through uncertainty. This is hard for any organization whether private or public, small or large. This book provides a roadmap for those who want to understand and manage innovation in all its aspects. It explains both the "how" and the "why" of innovation – its economic and policy context as well as the techniques by which it can be orchestrated, along with the management systems needed to govern it. Innovation is uniquely presented through both a private-sector (value-creating) and public-sector (mission-fulfilling) lens. Topics covered in context include modern innovation and creativity techniques such as design thinking and the Lean Startup, the organizational challenges of innovation, as well as innovation project- and portfolio management techniques. Business-model innovation and open innovation complete the picture from the manager’s perspective. The private and public financing of R&D, startups, and corporate innovation are presented – contrasting the private and public worlds while explaining how they complement each other. Government innovation policy is discussed in its historical and contemporary context, and the innovation policy toolset is introduced. Continual innovation is vital for companies and countries to prosper. Readers will learn why innovation must follow technological breakthroughs to raise productivity and economic growth, and how innovation – when done right – can benefit larger society. An explanation for unequal growth – that some companies, regions, and countries are not seeing the full productivity gains promised by modern technology – is explored in the context of technology diffusion. No previous experience in innovation management, economics or public policy is assumed, and the book moves fast to equip the reader with practical tools and techniques. Innovation for Value and Mission is suitable for an introductory graduate level course, or as a desk reference for experienced practitioners and policymakers. Because it connects multiple topic areas and contains ample additional references, the book is also a great resource for those with expertise in one particular area of innovation who desire to branch out into other areas.

Book Firms in Open Source Software Development

Download or read book Firms in Open Source Software Development written by Mario Schaarschmidt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-29 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In open innovation scenarios, firms are able to profit from technological developments that take place beyond the legal boundaries. However, in the absence of contract-based vertical command chains, such as in the case of open source software (OSS), it is difficult for firms to obtain control over the innovation project’s trajectory. In this book, the author suggests that firms have basically two options to control project work beyond their boundaries and beyond their vertical command chains. The assumption is discussed against various theories of the firm as well as control theory and empirically tested by analyzing firm engagement in Eclipse open source projects as well as communication work in the Linux kernel project.

Book Essays on Public Funding for Private Innovation

Download or read book Essays on Public Funding for Private Innovation written by Jason Rathje and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the significant annual expenditure of public (government) research and development (R& D) funding allocated to private, for-profit firms, research is unclear as to if whether or not public funding is positively associated with firm performance. To partially address this gap, in three essays I examine the most common funding tie between public organizations and private firms in the U.S. - public-private R& D relationships. In the first two essays, I conceptualize public-private R& D relationships as institutional hybrids and argue and show that relative to technologies developed without a public-sector partner, the institutional conflict underlying public-private R& D relationships is positively related to the creation of valuable and destabilizing technologies. To provide support for my institutional hybrids' hypotheses, I employ a novel machine learning-matching method to examine all patented technologies in the U.S. between the years 1982-2012. In the final essay, I focus on technology ventures (i.e., start-ups) that form a contractual R& D relationship with a public-consumer (e.g., NASA, DoD) and show that these start-ups produce technologies faster and survive longer than their non-contracted peers. However, due to the stabilizing dependencies inherent in public-consumer relationships, these ventures also experience slower growth. I conclude with management and policy implications.
