This project develops in partnership with the Kitchen Electrics business unit of Groupe SEB. It focuses on the research question:
How is it possible to improve the selection of creative ideas in the innovation process?
The qualitative research was initiated in November 2013 with the investigation of 5 innovative projects. The project has made it possible to identify key drivers both associated with the projects, and with the project teams. This approach aims at identifying key factors to be considered either as risks, or as issues at stake in the projects as early as possible in the innovation process. These factors also allow for the elaboration of a 'big picture', and for the identification of priorities.
The project also investigates the practices prevailing for the integration of a wide variety of data, information and knowledge during the innovation management process. The project analyses how these practices are actually implemented in a "global" firm proposing new products everywhere in the world.
Ths research project develops in a tight partnership with the Kitchen Electrics business unit of Groupe SEB.
