Download or read book Innovation Engineering written by Ikhlaq Sidhu and published by Version. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation Engineering is a practical guide to creating anything new - whether in a large firm, research lab, new venture or even in an innovative student project. As an executive, are you happy with the return on investment of your innovative projects? As an innovator, do you feel confident that you can navigate obstacles and achieve success with your innovative project? The reality is that most innovation projects fail. The challenge in developing any new technology, application, or venture is that the innovator must be able to "execute while also learning". Innovation Engineering, developed and used at UC Berkeley, provides the tactical process, leadership, and behaviors necessary for successful innovation projects. Our validation tests have shown that teams which properly use Innovation Engineering accomplished their innovative projects approximately 4X faster than and with higher quality results. They also on-board new team members faster, they have much fewer unnecessary meetings, and they even report a more positive outlook on the project itself. Inter-woven between the chapters are real-life case studies with some of the world's most successful innovators to provide context, patterns, and playbooks that you can follow. Highly applied, and very realistic, Innovation Engineering builds on 30 years of technology innovation projects within large firms, advanced development labs, and new ventures at UC Berkeley, in Silicon Valley, and globally. If your goal is to create something new and have it successfully used in real life, this book is for you.
Download or read book How to Make Inventions written by Edward P. Thompson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Make Inventions: Or, Inventing as a Science and an Art, a Practical Guide for Inventors The style adopted is that of a lecture, and, therefore, it is hoped that the use of personal pronouns may be overlooked. The object in view is to make a mere beginning in the establishment of Inventing as a Science and an Art, but especially to present conclusions arrived at in the study of inventors and inventions in order that the capacity of inventors may be enlarged. If even a single useful invention results from the perusal of this book, I shall feel that the time has not been spent in vain. Not knowing how a book with such a title would be accepted, preliminary notices were distributed soliciting subscriptions contingent upon publication. I am greatly indebted to those who so kindly sent in such subscriptions, and especially to those subscribers who wished me success. The Electrical World (New York) I also thank for inserting a series of paid articles on this subject, prepared and contributed by me during the year 1884. Much encouragement for continuing the development of the subject-matter was given by Mr. T. Commerford Martin, editor of The Electrical Engineer (New York), and Mr. George H. Guy, editor of Electricity (Chicago), who so kindly invited me to deliver a lecture upon this subject before the New York Electrical Society in 1890. As may be expected, the inventor will in no way be relieved of tedious labor by following any instructions contained in this book. I am inclined to believe that this will not be the basis of any criticism which may be rendered by any opponents or prejudiced minds ; because I have learned and am more and more impressed with what I believe to be a fact that a lazy inventor has never yet been born. No day laborer makes as many hours a day. The physician, missionary, and other philanthropists cannot show a better record for diligence of both the body and the mind. In writing this book I have borne this in mind, and have felt that there was no danger of making those suggestions and giving that instruction which would be rejected by the inventor simply because much work was involved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The road to licensing a profitable, innovative product or technology is riddled with curves, holes, and rocky cliffs. The President of the United Inventors Association shows inventors, innovators, and makers a better path towards monetizing your creations and how to avoid the get-rich-quick scammers. Every year, hundreds of thousands of eager inventors around the globe spend millions of dollars seeking assistance from inventor service companies and individuals claiming to be experts in the innovation and licensing fields, though their actual success rates are poor in relation to the dollar amounts they charge. The reality is, according to Inventors’ Digest™, while 78% of new inventors believe they will make over a million dollars with their inventions, less than 1% actually do. Marketers prey on this scenario for their own financial gain. In Inventor Confidential, inventor advocate Warren Tuttle tips the odds back in the investor’s favor, helping them: Gain a much broader picture of the many current challenges that inventors face these days. Understand the red flags to watch out for when individuals or companies charge up front for their coaching or help-to-market services. See how inventors can improve their odds of licensing success by following a thorough product development protocol, creating working prototypes, and filing U.S. patents. Get the insider perspective on how companies determine the quality of a product submission and if they want to work with the inventor. Learn the 30 steps to market if you want to go it alone. For anyone who has a great idea or invention and wants to monetize it but are not sure who to trust, Inventor Confidential will show them where to best spend their hard-earned money to maximize their odds for success.

Book excerpt: Innovation is a primary source of economic growth, and yet only one idea out of 3,000 becomes a successful product or service. Scalable Innovation: A Guide for Inventors, Entrepreneurs, and IP Professionals introduces a model for the innovation process, helping innovators to understand the nature and timing of opportunities and risks on the path to success. The authors apply systems thinking to discover real-life challenges, and provide tools for turning these challenges into opportunities for practical, scalable innovation. The book is organized into four sections: Prologue exposes key barriers to creativity and innovation. It provides telling examples of how years in school and at work make us accept common wisdoms that are likely to hurt our chances to create or take advantage of breakthrough innovations. Section I introduces a system model for understanding technology and solving problems. It shows how to connect the model with real-life solutions, including their reflection in patents. Section II introduces tools for thinking outside the box, considers the role of luck in success of inventions, and presents tools for flexible thinking and imagination development. Section III discusses system dynamics, including how the elements of systems evolve, creating space for invention and scalable innovation. The authors illustrate this with case studies from various industries and technology areas. They analyze several landmark innovations in detail, revealing surprising and essential elements common to all of them. This book presents simple principles that form the foundation of successful innovation, enabling practitioners to anticipate and expedite the creation of value through the guided innovation process. It outlines the most common barriers in reasoning and false beliefs about innovation that impede practitioners from seeing problems in a new light and offers specific ways of dealing with these barriers. It also provides specific tools for quickly identifying essential present and missing elements of systems underpinning high-value problems and their proposed solutions, resulting in an accelerated innovation development and evaluation cycle.
