Fighting Barriers to Innovation
by Luisa Collina and Giulano Simonelli,
re-published from Design Issues in Europe Today, a BEDA White Book
Often the term innovation is linked to white coats and laboratories full of unknown machinery. There is another perception that innovation comes from the market; from listening to people for whom the products are intended. However, are there other forms of innovation which go beyond the already well known 'technology pull' and 'marketing push' innovations? Recently the definition of a new innovation concept, defined as 'design-driven' innovation, has developed and is being established. This innovation is not necessarily linked to technological innovation or to sophisticated market analysis, but its driving force is design capacity.
