Abstract

This chapter proposes a method of creativity that calls on the profound knowledge of the actors and the company's knowledge capital. It defines what a knowledge-based method of creativity is and illustrates it with examples. The chapter then looks in detail at an example that has been tested at Thales Air Systems, a multinational defense company, in the civil and military radars production domain. The problem addressed in this example is that of determining the "products of the future" axes (technological roadmap), which raises the problem of the technological sectors to be mastered, and therefore the fields of knowledge to be supported. This is why the reflection was submitted to the different knowledge communities corresponding to the different fields. This reflection was based on an extrapolation of past innovations and was presented to a strategic committee in order to align it with the company's technical strategy.
