Purpose and goal
This project has developed the results of a previous research project "MIIF - Measuring innovation and innovative capabilities" to achieve clear practical benefits and large-scale dissemination. This has been done by developing a practitioners’ handbook on innovation measurement in Swedish which is available at www.innovationsstark.se for everyone to download for free.
Expected results and effects
The project has resulted in the handbook and the dissemination activities that were intended and has thus contributed with one tool for Swedish organizations in their work to become “innovation-strong”. Through the various dissemination activities and the knowledge dialogues, learning about innovation measurement within and between companies from different industries has also been made possible.
Planned approach and implementation
The project has been conducted with two parallel streams of activities; 1) implementation and 2) interaction and dissemination activities. Within first, the material was developed for the handbook and the same was developed and completed, also with the help of graphics, website creation and printing. Regarding the second; a) networking was initiated with different organizations, 2) knowledge dialogues and 3) dissemination of results to the project´s various parties.
