By using this unique method, you will be able to: createinnovations that you would not otherwise create, developinnovations in shorter times, make innovations with high inherentreliability and smoothly transfer innovations into productcommercialization.

Based on Don Clausing's experience in technology and productdevelopment and on Victor Fey's experience in the development andapplication of TRIZ methodology, this book combines the bestinnovation practices of the U.S., Japan, an Western Europe, withTRIZ, which was developed in the former USSR.

From technology strategy to concept creation and selection, theauthors cover each innovation activity, taking you step-by-stepthrough the effective methods.

They provide a clear focus on robustness development and technologytransfer which leads to the commercialization activity.

Diagrams and case studies throughout the text clearly illustratethe concepts Effective Innovation: The Development of WinningTechnologies is a comprehensive and invaluable resource.
