”If innovation is the commercial
application of existing knowledge
in a new context, technologically
driven innovation is only one
form of this. Innovation is distinct
from research, which results in
new knowledge and from the
entrepreneurial function that spots
market opportunities for products
and services. It is the result of the
interaction of these two
functions”
