Innovation -and other- Models
Models
A workable and testable description of a more complex system, and/or its simplified representation. Models can depict theories, processes, practices, phenomena, and/or patterns. They are used to enable analysis and comparison, and/or facilitate communication among agents as well as the use of technologies and knowledge. Models often include standards and measurement indicators that are based on data.

Innovation opportunities
- Unexpected events
- Incongruities
- Need to make processes more effective
- Structural changes of an industry
- Demographics
- Changes in perceptions
- New knowledge
- Analogy, convergence and TRANSFER
What affects diffusion?
1. Relative advantage
2. Compatibility
3. Complexity
4. Trialability
5. Observability
Technology transfer
When this became a key component in IM strategies?
Technology transfer and National Innovation Systems (NIS)
Technology transfer
became a key component in IM strategies by the sixth generation of innovation models when the context became as important as the organization itself
