It is rapidly gaining prevalence in academia, business, and personal use. In particular, the emergence of generative AI, exemplified by large language models such as ChatGPT, has been marked by substantial media attention, discourse, and hype. Like most, if not all, aspects of business, innovation processes have been impacted. However, little is known about the degree of impact or the benefits that might be gained. To cut through the hype and understand the use of AI in innovation processes in businesses today, a large-scale survey amongst innovation managers in the USA was conducted, followed by interviews. The findings indicate that the use of AI in innovation processes is high and widespread, with AI being used for more than half of the surveyed firms' innovation projects. Furthermore, AI is used more in the development stage of the innovation process than in the idea or commercialization stages, which counters much of the existing discourse, which focuses on the idea stage. We uncover interesting differences by comparing the use and impact of generative AI with that of more traditional AI. Among these is a significant difference in expected benefits in making employees’ jobs more fulfilling — managers believe generative AI is more likely to confer this benefit than traditional AI. This paper offers two valuable contributions. First, it enriches the evolving dialogue at the intersection of AI and innovation management by offering much-needed empirical evidence about practical applications. Second, it provides timely managerial implications by examining relationships between the use of AI and innovation performance and understanding the benefits that AI can confer in the innovation process.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49444,"journal":{"name":"Technovation","volume":"136 ","pages":"Article 103081"},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141960290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, we know much less about the valuation process, i.e., how market audiences estimate (or determine) the value of newly granted patents. Building on behavioral economics, we propose the anchoring effect as an important cognitive mechanism, such that a patent's valuation is anchored on the value that preceding patents have secured. Analyzing financial valuation of U.S. patents between 1991 and 2010, we find broad support to the anchoring effect. The effect is more pronounced when focal patents are of lower novelty, when prior anchors are more consistent, and when focal firms have a higher patenting frequency. Furthermore, our extensional analysis suggests that anchoring acts as an important driver for the divergence between patents' economic value and scientific quality, which deserves attention from firms and policy makers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49444,"journal":{"name":"Technovation","volume":"136 ","pages":"Article 103070"},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166497224001202/pdfft?md5=56ced839e9e2bfd36546e24b41b17bb6&pid=1-s2.0-S0166497224001202-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141630693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We anticipate that applying brokerage position in network theory would offer further insights into the relationship between EP and exploitative innovation strategy. Additionally, we introduced depth of openness as a moderating variable and examined its effect on the moderated mediation relationship. To test hypotheses, this study utilized linear and logistic regression, bootstrapping, and the Johnson-Neyman technique. The findings of the 2020 Korean Innovation Survey, conducted by the Science and Technology Policy Institute, indicate that data from 2352 Korean manufacturing companies exhibits that the brokerage position mediates EP and exploitative innovation strategy. Moreover, the depth of openness mitigated the positive relationship between the brokerage position and the exploitative innovation strategy and the indirect effect of EP on exploitative innovation strategy through the brokerage position. These findings contribute theoretically to entrepreneurial orientation and underscore the practical significance of aligning company goals with social relationships.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49444,"journal":{"name":"Technovation","volume":"136 ","pages":"Article 103068"},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141636903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, a method to model the dynamics of collective user engagement is essential. This paper proposes a method to model the dynamics of collective user engagement in new product development using agent-based simulation. The model integrates an indirect engagement process – in which users exchange information and knowledge, draw from past experiences, and psychologically invest in the product – with a direct engagement process – in which users interact with the product and the firm to contribute. We demonstrate how the model can be calibrated using a consumer survey. Our findings reveal an overall increase in user engagement, characterised by nonlinear growth during the idea and design stages, followed by a relatively steady increase during the test stage. Moreover, our study identifies the significance of various factors, such as social network parameters, past experience, product connection, and match degree, in shaping user engagement in new product development. This research provides a systematic approach to model user engagement within the context of new product development. It also offers practical implications that can guide management decisions in effectively engaging with users during new product development.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49444,"journal":{"name":"Technovation","volume":"135 ","pages":"Article 103062"},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To understand how small and medium-sized firms have utilised Gen AI-based tools to cope with the market's high level of turbulence caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical crises, and economic slowdown, researchers have conducted an empirical study. Although Gen AI is receiving more attention, there remains a dearth of empirical studies that investigate how it influences the entrepreneurial orientation of firms and their ability to cultivate entrepreneurial resilience amidst market turbulence. Most of the literature offers anecdotal evidence. To address this research gap, the authors have grounded their theoretical model and research hypotheses in the contingent view of dynamic capability. They tested the research hypotheses using cross-sectional data from a pre-tested survey instrument, which yielded 87 useable responses from small and medium enterprises in France. The authors used variance-based structural equation modelling with the commercial WarpPLS 7.0 software to test the theoretical model. The study's findings suggest that Gen AI and EO have a significant influence on building entrepreneurial resilience as higher-order and lower-order dynamic capabilities. However, market turbulence has a negative moderating effect on the path that joins entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial resilience. The results suggest that the assumption that high market turbulence will have positive effects on dynamic capabilities and competitive advantage is not always true, and the linear assumption does not hold, which is consistent with some scholars' assumptions. The study's results offer significant contributions to the contingent view of dynamic capabilities and open new research avenues that require further investigation into the non-linear relationship of market turbulence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49444,"journal":{"name":"Technovation","volume":"135 ","pages":"Article 103063"},"PeriodicalIF":11.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166497224001135/pdfft?md5=a9262d49c10eb9d105b45f94960945c1&pid=1-s2.0-S0166497224001135-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141481098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
