Why“problemfinding”?

• ResearchquestionsareoftenGIVEN bysupervisors- lackofopportunitytocomeupwithyourownproblem

• Researchquestionsoftennotelaborated– toobroad,ambiguous,…

• Technicallymotivatedbuttheoreticallyunjustified– Unlessyouintendtechnicalprogress,applyingstate-of-the-arttechniquestodamnquestionsisn’tacleverwayofusingyourtime.


Whyinnovationmatters?• Innovation-- processofcreatingvaluefromideas -- isa

survivalimperativeandahopeforthefuture.– Businessescannotsurvivewithoutinnovation,particularlyinthe

contemporarydynamic/chaoticeconomic/political/technological landscape.

• Thisistrueinmanydifferentscenes.– Nationalcompetition:Designof“nationalinnovationsystem”is
