Innovation Portfolio Management
Composing innovation portfolios that align innovation projects with the company’s strategy
Let your innovation initiatives support the overall
business strategies
Linking your innovation projects to trends and upcoming technologies to identify “white spots” in your portfolio
Innovation is key to sustained competitive advantage in a dynamic global marketplace. An organization’s strategy determines what kind of innovation is required based on its customer value proposition. The aim is to establish a balanced innovation portfolio so that, in the event of a disruptive change in the market, the company already goes through a systematic process of creating new innovations, while at the same time maintaining current cash cows and reducing declining business.
The golden ratio for a balanced innovation portfolio can be expressed with the 70/20/10 model. 70 % of a company’s portfolio and budget allocation should, therefore, be aimed at protecting and maintaining the core business. Innovation efforts regarding “new” projects count for around 20 % of the company’s portfolio. 10 % is recommended to be of a transformational character and new to the market.
