Description

Economic growth relies heavily on technological progress, yet the origins of many breakthroughs remain misunderstood. This book from the Routledge Studies in Innovation, Organizations and Technology series explores the untapped potential of user-driven advancement. While manufacturers are often seen as the primary drivers of change, recent research shows that users in fields ranging from medical devices to software and extreme sports are significant sources of innovation. This text provides a systematic identification of the most important barriers to user-innovation. It offers a critical evaluation of the democratization of innovation argument by analyzing the legal, economic, and technological factors at play. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how intellectual property licensing and various structural obstacles affect the ability of users to contribute to technological growth. This work is essential for those studying the intersection of innovation management, economics, and technology policy.
