Innovation and culture revisited: a conceptual approach based on complexity theory

Article Abstract:

A new way of thinking about culture and innovation is put forward. The new approach to innovation conceptualises it as a structural and "mental" knowledge process. The assumption is made that the capability to produce new ideas and the ability to transform these ideas into a viable proposition contribute to the success of an innovation process.
