Abstract
This paper describes a framework for an interactive,
business-oriented innovation process in an RTO. The main
research question of the paper is the following: "How is
it possible to promote an interactive, business-oriented
innovation process in an RTO?" The framework consists of
the VTT3i philosophy and the VTT3i process behind it for
implementing the philosophy in research projects. The
VTT3i philosophy consists of three disciplines of
innovation - identify, invent, and implement. The process
behind the disciplines was tested in five pilot cases.
The theoretical background of this paper builds on the
discussions of business insights into innovation in an
RTO.
