Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency(DARPA)


Defining “Innovation” •  Innovation is “the commercial or industrial application of something new—a new

product, process or method of production; a new market or sources of supply; a new form of commercial business or financial organization.” (Schumpeter, Theory of Economic Development)

•  Innovation is the intersection of invention and insight, leading to the creation of social and economic value. (Innovate America, National Innovation Initiative Report, Council on Competitiveness, 2004)

•  Innovation—the blend of invention, insight and entrepreneurship that launches growth industries, generates new value and creates high value jobs. (Ahead of the Curve, The Business Council of New York State, Inc. 2006)

•  Innovation covers a wide range of activities to improve firm performance, including the implementation of a new or significantly improved product, service, distribution process, manufacturing process, marketing method or organizational method. (European Commission, Innobarometer 2004, November 2004)

•  An innovation is the implementation of a new or significantly improved product (good or service), or process, a new marketing method, or a new organizational method in business practices, workplace organization or external relations. Innovation activities are all scientific, technological, organizational, financial and commercial steps which actually, or are intended to, lead to the implementation of innovations. (Oslo Manual, 3rd Edition, OECD).

•  Innovation success is the degree to which value is created for customers through enterprises that transform new knowledge and technologies into profitable products and services for national and global markets. A high rate of innovation in turn contributes to more market creation, economic growth, job creation, wealth and a higher standard of living. (21st Century Working Group, National Innovation Initiative, 2004)
