Talk:Innovation

Definition Innovation
Hi,

when you defined Innovation with respect to the OECD manual, you put 'Edison et al' as a reference (8). However, it would be more sensible to put there the original reference from Crossan & Apaydin, 2010 p.1155 there.

Kind Regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.41.131.255 (talk) 12:17, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

Effects of innovation
Innovation is crucial because it provides users with new utilities. Its importance stems from the fact that it may have an influence not only on the individuals but also on the whole organisations/companies and societies. Shouldn't we introduce a new section - "the effects of innovation"? Here are some good, systematic sources: https://arxiv.org/abs/1307.3911 or https://books.google.pl/books/about/Innovation_and_Market_Value_The_Case_of.html?id=cqJoDgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false.

Addition of material on China - really not sure why it's been deleted.
I don't understand this deletion of material. The claim is that it doesn't pass the "weight" test. It's a new article (2019) but it's already been cited, and the authors are widely cited, and the journal is certainly respectable. The material fits the section.

article overview / lead paragraph / title issue
I think the title of this could be: Innovation (business), as it clearly doesn't cover all of human innovation or an overview of the concept. It doesn't cover cultural innovation or medical innovation for example. The definitions used in the first 2 lines refer to business only because they are taken from business-related sources. Wikipedia should not be in the game of re-defining english. Either way - changing the title or the content - or maybe splitting the article; it is not coherent as it is. 78.149.120.57 (talk) 19:27, 1 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Please find some sources to back up the existence of such a thing as "cultural innovation" as a type of innovation (as you are suggesting), as opposed to sources talking about "cultural aspects of innovation" or "integration of culture and innovation". Also, medical innovation still falls under the definition given in the lead, as it results in new products and services, and is ultimately motivated by the same things.
