Workshop Agenda

Workshop on

Date & Venue: 23 and 24 March 2000, The University of Edinburgh Management School.

Summary

Innovation is seen as key to sustained competitiveness, but innovation without capturing knowledge about the process of innovation and change may not improve an  organisation's ability to innovate in future! This was the theme of a 2 day joint workshop between the ESRC's Innovation Programme, and the EPSRC's Systems Engineering for Business Process Change programme. This event brought researchers from each programme together with the practitioner communities represented in the research. A series of presentations explored this theme from both programme's perspectives with the objectives of:
  • Reviewing different perspectives on competitiveness in each community
  • Identifying the potential competitive impact of applying the tools and techniques emerging from the existing research
  • Identifying overlaps & gaps in the existing research
