SPRINGERBRIEFS IN DIGITAL SPACES INNOVATION F...

Relying on the extensive study of a multi-national Company  this work proposes a process view
of the way firms balance tensions between exploring new knowledge and exploiting old one. First
ideas are generated throughout the organization. These ideas are funneled towards specific
project teams that further develop and refine them. Second  projects are assessed by the top
management. Agreed projects are then progressively transformed into exploitable products 
following a transformative learning process. We then make propositions regarding the role
information systems can play in sustaining this process. Regarding the first phase of the cycle
we will focus on systems that help in sustaining idea generation and in balancing explorative
and exploitive projects in the technologies portfolio of the firm. Regarding the second phase 
we will look at information systems that could be useful in supporting knowledge transfer and
knowledge interpretation across a multi-national company.
