THEORY AND RESULTS – USER-DRIVEN INNOVATION

Abstract

Purpose – of the study is to determine whether a user-driven innovation (IUP) system is more effective in introducing innovation than a linear one.
Methodology – the study was conducted using such methods as: abstract - logical and comparative analysis, the method of description and generalization. The sources of research were theoretical and analytical articles, the works of Kazakhstan and foreign authors, which examine user-driven issues of the innovation system.
Originality/value – the authors formulated the following hypothesis: companies implementing IUP systems represent a higher level of innovation than companies introducing a linear process. The following methods were used: questionnaire, standardized interview and ranking method. The hypothesis was tested.
Findings – to achieve this goal, appropriate research methods were applied. The first stage of the research was the identification of innovation processes by an expert group. Subsequently, the results of a qualitative study were verified by a quantitative survey conducted by the method of standardized interview. The study showed a relatively small role of the board in relation to customers in the innovation processes at the surveyed enterprises. Achieving sustainable change remains a fundamental challenge.
