In the fifth part of the series I will present the Teece model, which can be used to predict who will profit from an innovation and to understand what company will have higher incentives to invest in certain innovations. [...] [...] So far we have already covered three models that analyse what companies will be in a better position to innovate and under what circumstances (Schumpeter, the Incremental – Radical dichotomy and the Henderson – Clark model) and one framework that outlines the introduction, growth and maturation of innovations and technological cycles (the S-Curve framework).

There were no transitions or dynamicity whatsoever. Abernathy and Utterback tried to break with this standard by creating a model where product innovation, process innovation, competitive environment and organizational structure were all interacting and closely linked together (Abernathy, W.J. and Utterback, J.M. – Patterns of Innovation in Technology, Technology Review 1978). The development of the whole system will pass through three main phases, each of them impacting differently on single companies, on the market and on the capabilities and resources required to develop the innovation.
