Knowledge-based New Product Development: fostering innovation through knowledge co-creation

Abstract

This paper develops and presents the concept of knowledge-based New Product Development (NPD) in an effort to explain the role of knowledge in NPD and the process of its (co-)creation and management. It tries to advance the notion of knowledge (co-)creation in NPD, with a particular focus on the involvement of customers - i.e., the co-creation of knowledge, value and innovation with customers. The purpose is to provide both academics and practitioners with a framework for understanding and analysing knowledge-based processes in NPD and how these can be leveraged to foster innovation.
