Radical innovation connotes groundbreaking innovation: the surprisingly new, that in a radically new concept links technology and value from use. Incremental innovation connotes innovation in small steps where existing concepts are linked in a new way. Often, it is a question of continuous improvements and adaptation of existing products. We could have done far more than four types, but to ensure its practical applicability we ended up restricting ourselves to four main groups. Together, the four types cover the entire innovative spectrum, from radical to incremental innovation (Dewar & Dutton, 1986) 5 The Four Innovation Types in the Idea Maturation Concept In Figure 3 we have shown the four innovation processes that are implicit in the four innovation types covered by our concept.
