1. The processes in which any firm inccurs in order to find a better or a propper solution to a diversity of organizational, methodological or product-related problems.
2. Transformation of Knoledge Into Working artifacts
3. Matching of Artifacts, Organizational Ptactices and Market Demand
4. What is it?
5. Matching Technology and Organizational Practices with Market Needs
5.1. It is important to acknoledge the technological resources that the firms have in hand and used focused on what the consumer needs
6. Coping with Radical Change
6.1. Companies and the market itself need disruptive innovation, artifacts thata truly change the way products and markets operate
7. Tribal Warfare
7.1. Is the conflict and difference between higly specialized people or sections, a problem that deep research and professional teams can have in the innovation processes
8. Keeping Technological Practice ahead of Scientific Theory
8.1. In order to have an actual useful solution, we need to keep making prototypes and controlling its progress, that is why practice in innovation can be more important than theory
9. Government-Funded Programs
9.1. Technological activities have commonly more acces to resources, capital and support when they are financied or funded by government institutions
10. Multi-Technology Firms, Modurization and System Integration
10.1. Technological convergence can provide better information, quicker and effectively to organizations.
10.2. "The development and production of increasingly complex artifacts are, as we have seen, based on the integration of an increasing number of fields of specialized knowledge"
11. Managing Uncertainty?
11.1. Innovation sometimes can be unpredictable, thus generating uncertainty around these processes.
11.2. We can define this uncertainty as good, as it allows teams and firms to be creative and create new artifacts, products, or processes.
12. It is crucial and fundamental to the growth and competitiveness of any firm
13. The innovationa as "Acts of Intellect"
14. Corporate Innovartion Processes
15. The Production of Scientific and Technological Knowledge
16. General framework to understand
16.1. 1. Innovation processes involve the exploration and exploitation of opportunities for new or improved products
16.2. 2,Innovation is inherently uncertain , given the impossibility of predicting accurately the costo and performance of a new artifact
17. There is an existing need to support and provide solutions to technological developments, in order to generate innovation
18. From these needs where created three forms of corporate spcialization
19. Functional Specialization and Integration.
20. Technological Convergence and Vertical Disintegration in Production Techniques
