Innovation is the single most important activity for transforming a company's revenues and profitability. It has the potential to turn a crisis into an opportunity for growth and expansion.
Many manufacturing companies are selling commodity type products into contracting markets where competition on price, service levels is severe. By contrast, companies employing the latest innovation methods are more likely to have IP protected proprietary products that deliver significant benefits to end users and a business model that delivers annuity income after the initial sale.
Success at commercialising technology is a critical process for increasing company profitability as well as developing university revenue streams through spin-out and licensing. It also underpins regional economic growth through incubators and business support to industry.
Breakthrough in understanding innovation
Until recently not enough has been understood about how high performing, innovative companies operate but not now.
Recently completed research shows that many companies are pretty good innovators but often lack just one or two key ingredients to unlock high earning potential.
Many companies have a strong innovation culture with enthusiastic people but frequently lack high margin, new products ideas, or the innovation processes to find, screen and evaluate, develop and market them.
By following this proven approach companies can develop and organise internal capabilities and turn them into competitive advantage and profits.
