Gaynor Gerard H. Doing Innovation: Creating Economic Value. Book 2. Developing a Workable Innovation Process

IEEE-USA, 2009. — 32 p.Doing Innovation: Creating Economic Value comes about from a concern that while innovation appears to receive considerable attention in the academic and business media, these so-called innovations provide little, if any, consistent and significant economic growth.
Academia, government, and industry struggle to various degrees to translate ideas into innovations that not only provide for economic growth but also offer some social benefit.
Articles that present Innovations-of-the-Year too often describe substitute products with new bells and whistles. These products took considerable effort and talent to market and while interesting, do not provide significant economic value.
The Doing Innovation series will include four E-Books that provide the reader with an understanding of the fundamentals of converting ideas into innovations.
