Global competition has forced companies to redesign
themselves. This general motivation in industry has been
the reason that companies have started to gather
knowledge how to innovate their innovation business
system. The open question is how to get a big
corporation with 40 000 people and with the very tight
product development schedules and budgets to ensure a
successful system and culture of radical innovation? In
our study we have reviewed the contemporary literature
of radical innovation and product development. We have
collected and reviewed knowledge of innovation founded
from design research (the first author), professional
knowledge work, professional education, and
administrative science (the second author), and senior
vice presidents of the industrial company (the third
author). The basic aim has been to initiate a
developmental programme of radical innovation business
system and its methodology covering today’s industrial
demands. pdf-file
