Applying biotechnology for advanced frugal innovation for prosperity in the 21st century
This insight paper revisits Advanced Frugal Innovations (AFI) as a path towards a sustainability-oriented economic transformation. Its focus is on the disruptive nature of combining AFI with advances in biotechnology and their potential to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Interfaces between the two domains are derived and shown. Examples highlight the potential contribution of products and processes based on this combination towards generating sustainable high-performance products. Challenges regarding generation, scaling, diffusion and integration of AFI in entrepreneurial strategies as well as future research needs are acknowledged and discussed. Despite the technological and strategic challenges associated with the combination of biotechnology and AFI, significant benefits are apparent for the integration of this combination into business strategies and social development.
期刊介绍:
The interdisciplinary journal Technovation covers various aspects of technological innovation, exploring processes, products, and social impacts. It examines innovation in both process and product realms, including social innovations like regulatory frameworks and non-economic benefits. Topics range from emerging trends and capital for development to managing technology-intensive ventures and innovation in organizations of different sizes. It also discusses organizational structures, investment strategies for science and technology enterprises, and the roles of technological innovators. Additionally, it addresses technology transfer between developing countries and innovation across enterprise, political, and economic systems.
