The Evaluation Of Innovation

Author

Listed:
  • PETER de LEON

Abstract

This essay examines the difficulties of evaluating procedural and technological innovations while they are still being developed or the interim evaluation of ongoing innovation. The major recommendations warn against a premature reliance on a yet‐undeveloped theory. Careful attention could be directed to delineate a series of relatively discrete steps in the innovation processes, defining and collecting pertinent data, and developing an innovation typology. All of these have direct policy relevance.
