Description

This module introduces the concept of innovation ecosystems and its key pillars (mindset, product and customers, organisation design, processes, knowledge and technology, people, and context), which allows learners to understand innovation management and practices, to focus on key elements of innovation within an ecosystem, and to prepare the entrepreneurial mindset for continuous research on innovation, considering the contexts and needs of companies, customers, and societies. The module emphasises the need of understanding innovation ecosystems from the perspective of Grand Challenges, connecting the discussion of innovation in organisations to global pressing problems, such as sustainable cities and transformative technology. Key topics to be discussed in the syllabus: innovation ecosystems, innovation journey, mindset (e.g. entrepreneurship, strategic view), product and customers, organisation design (e.g. business models, platforms), processes (e.g. measuring performance, data analytics), knowledge and technology, people (e.g. knowledge networks), context (e.g. institutions, legal frameworks, and financial and risk management).
