There is now widespread agreement that innovation holds the key to future economic and social prosperity in developed countries. Experts studying contemporary capitalism also agree that the battle against unemployment and relocations can only be won through innovation. But what kind of innovation is required and what is the best way to manage, steer and organize it? Grounded on experiences of innovative firms and based on recent design theories, this book argues that instead of relying on traditional R&D and project management techniques, the strategic management of innovation must be based on innovative design activities. It analyses and explains new management principles and techniques that deal with these activities, including innovation fields, lineages, C-K (Concept-Knowledge) diagrams and design spaces. The book is ideal for advanced courses in innovation management in industrial design schools, business schools, engineering schools, as well as managers looking to improve their practice.

This book explores how science-industry collaboration drives innovation and breakthrough discoveries.To tackle the grand challenges of our time—from climate change to health crises and technological transitions—we need both novel scientific knowledge and radical innovation. Yet these two goals are often seen as a linear sequence: first science, then its application in industry.This book challenges that view by introducing the concept of double impact simultaneous coupling, a groundbreaking model showing how scientific discovery and disruptive innovation can emerge together through well-structured collaboration. Drawing on eight years of research—including analyses of historical breakthroughs, Nobel Prize–winning projects, and over engineering doctoral theses—the authors reveal how industry can be more than a user of science: it can be a fertile ground for creating it.Combining clear theoretical models, vivid historical and contemporary case studies, and robust empirical evidence, this book offers a practical and conceptual toolkit for academic and corporate scientists, innovation leaders, policymakers, and academic institutions. It demonstrates how aligned yet independent exploration and structured knowledge exchange between science and industry can unlock extraordinary results.Whether you manage a research lab, design R&D policy, or aim to transform science-based industrial strategy, this book is an essential guide to building more ambitious, balanced, and impactful science–industry collaborations.
