Item Fostering innovation in practice through TRIZ-based CAI tools(2007-11) Sorli, Mikel; Stokic, Dragan; Gorostiza, Alvaro; Campos, Ana; Tecnalia Research & Innovation; Centros PRE-FUSION TECNALIA - (FORMER)Innovation is a critical factor in the success of industrial companies. Therefore, there is an urgent need to effectively master innovation processes in an Extended Enterprise (EE) context. This will pay back higher market share and faster market penetration. The main objective of the AIM Toolkit© is to provide the means of stimulating the creation of innovative ideas specifically on potential product/process improvements and on problem solving. Ideas are collected from people involved with the products and processes throughout the 'Extended Enterprise' and will be further developed into innovations. The AIM system is based on the general TRIZ principles.Item The Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) Maturity Model: Linking Theory and Practice: Linking theory and practice(2017-06-16) Stahl, Bernd; Obach, Michael; Yaghmaei, Emad; Ikonen, Veikko; Chatfield, Kate; Brem, Alexander; Tecnalia Research & Innovation; Medical TechnologiesResponsible research and innovation (RRI) is an approach to research and innovation governance aiming to ensure that research purpose, process and outcomes are acceptable, sustainable and even desirable. In order to achieve this ambitious aim, RRI must be relevant to research and innovation in industry. In this paper, we discuss a way of understanding and representing RRI that resonates with private companies and lends itself to practical implementation and action. We propose the development of an RRI maturity model in the tradition of other well-established maturity models, linked with a corporate research and development (R&D) process. The foundations of this model lie in the discourse surrounding RRI and selected maturity models from other domains as well as the results of extensive empirical investigation. The model was tested in three industry environments and insights from these case studies show the model to be viable and useful in corporate innovation processes. With this approach, we aim to inspire further research and evaluation of the proposed maturity model as a tool for facilitating the integration of RRI in corporate management.
