Description:

Over the past decade, companies have tried one new strategy after another to promote innovation: corporate venturing and VC funds, intrapreneuring, patenting and IP licensing, innovation-by-alliance, innovation-by-acquisition, spinouts, spin-ins, and many more. By and large, they've failed. However, innovation is even more urgently necessary than it's ever been. Now, three leading experts on commercializing innovation systematically sort through the wreckage of yesterday's strategies, learning lessons and identifying ideas worth preserving and adapting. To prepare this book, the authors thoroughly examined the record of more than 250 innovation programs from organizations of widely differing sizes and industries, from 1998 through 2003. Based on this unprecedented research, they reveal the right time to use each innovation 'arrow' in your quiver, how to account for contingencies and risks; and how to focus on core innovation challenges -- not just superficial symptoms. Along the way, the authors define a focused, integrated model for innovation: one that is more nuanced and complex, but also better-grounded, more durable, and far more effective.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述:
在過去的十年中,公司嘗試了一個又一個新的策略來促進創新:企業創業和風險投資基金、內部創業、專利和知識產權授權、創新聯盟、創新收購、分拆、分拆收購等等。但大體上,這些策略都失敗了。然而,創新比以往任何時候都更加迫切。現在,三位領先的創新商業化專家系統地整理了昨天策略的殘骸,學習教訓並確定值得保留和適應的想法。為了準備這本書,作者們徹底研究了從1998年到2003年間來自不同規模和行業的250多個創新計劃的記錄。基於這一前所未有的研究,他們揭示了在你的箭袋中使用每一個創新“箭頭”的正確時機,如何考慮到偶發事件和風險,以及如何專注於核心創新挑戰,而不僅僅是表面症狀。在此過程中,作者們為創新定義了一個專注、整合的模型:這個模型更加細緻和複雜,但也更加扎實、持久和有效。
