Abstract

Technological innovation is a fundamental driver of competitiveness in the global markets. Thus, its management is one of the most important and challenging tasks of international companies. It encompasses all the activities necessary for the introduction of new and improved products and services into the market, particularly on the basis of new knowledge and technology. It is a cross-functional task, affecting all departments of a company: from R&D, over production, to marketing. Furthermore, management of technological innovation reaches out to the company’s external environment, to the network of different players – users, customers, suppliers or cooperation partners. Built on an effective balance between the state-of-the-art research and managerial practice, the course Management of Technological Innovation is designed to explain the nature of innovation and navigate among the variety of innovation strategies, tools and concepts. As such, it will enable students to deal with the challenges of the global business environment, engendered by uncertainty and complexity of dynamic markets.
