Key Insights
The research explores the relationship between innovation systems and foresight research in firms, challenging the classical Takeuchi-Nonaka Model. It introduces seven alternative interaction models that explain firm-level differences in innovation behavior. The study connects foresight systems to innovation processes, emphasizing the role of foresight in strategic decision-making and sense-making in rapidly changing markets. It suggests that foresight knowledge plays a more significant role in innovation processes than previously acknowledged, and that time-related perspectives like hindsight, insight, and foresight are crucial in understanding evolutionary processes in innovation.
