Specialization of Innovation System
An innovation system is not standard for all companies. Any business that implements a system has to take the time to create its own unique process. The key components remain the same and include: idea creation, idea capture mechanism, idea development, viability testing, and then investing in the winners while killing the losers. But how your organization actually implements all of these components is highly specialized based on resources that can be dedicated to the process.
