Theories of innovation

-Lean Start Up
-Third Way
TRIZ (1946)
-theory of inventive problem solving
-based on ABSTRACTION of problems into generic FUNCTIONS and PROPERTIES
-TECH driven
-follows SYSTEMATIC predicatble path
-can be ACCELERATED by TRANSFERRING learnings for other areas
Primary principles of TRIZ
-patterns of technical evolution are repeated = predictable
-problems and solutions can be repeated and transferred
-universal properties, functions, fields
-innovation is solving CONTRADICTIONS
-use RESOURCES for problem solving
Triz universal properties, functions, and fields
-determine generic functions and properties from a specific problem
-determine “DNA” of the problem
Triz example - weight management
-digestion
-gastric distension
-energy expenditure
-hormonal balance
Triz solving contradictions example
-efficacy vs side effects
-find rx that works but not toxic
-possible solution: localized action
Blue Ocean Strategy
-identify UNMET NEEDS of market and create solutions for them
-based on creation of NEW NEEDS and expansion of market away from competition
-CONSUMER NEED DRIVEN
-EXISTING TECH used to create new market/needs
Blue Ocean principles
-find UNSERVED market without competition
-MAP exisiting offerings vs needs of consumer
-RAISE value while REMOVING add ons with no calue
-Address unmet needs to make competition IRRELEVANT
Blue ocean strategy: Meet unmet needs example
-covid vax
-did not exist before pfifer/moderna vax
-rush to get vaccine opened up
-also protein bars
The Lean Start Up
-Japanese manufacturing principles
-ITERATIVELY build products to meet needs, reduce risk, avoid need for funding
-TECH and NEEDS DRIVEN
-high tech and internet
Lean Start Up principles
-PRACTICE
-quick PROTOTYPE testing
-MINIMUM VIABLE PRODUCT
-CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
