Abstract

This concluding chapter calls for a renewed debate on the theoretical development of business innovation. It highlights the importance of scientific pluralism and argues for a more integrative and reflexive approach to theory-building. By taking a meta-theoretical perspective, the chapter synthesizes key insights from the previous sections and outlines pathways for advancing the field. The chapter posits that future research should not only aim for academic rigor but also engage with practical relevance, fostering a dialog between disciplines. The chapter concludes by emphasizing the need for openness, cross-disciplinary exchange, and critical reflection to ensure the continued evolution and relevance of business innovation research.
