Robinson %K developed countries %K framework %K inclusive innovation %K inequality %K social exclusion %X Although widely appreciated as an important driver of economic growth, innovation has also been established as a contributor to increasing economic and social inequalities. Such negative consequences are particularly obvious in the context of developing countries and extreme poverty, where innovation’s contributions to inequalities are considered an issue of social and economic exclusion. In response, the concept of inclusive innovation has been developed to provide frameworks and action guidelines to measure and reduce the inequality-increasing effects of innovation. In developing countries, attention has only recently turned to the role of innovation in increasing inequalities, for example in the context of the degradation of employment in the transition from production to service industries. Although the focus of this early work is primarily on economic growth, innovation in developed countries also contributes to social exclusion, both of groups traditionally subject to social exclusion and new groups marginalized through arising innovations. This article summarizes the origins of the concept of inclusive innovation and proposes a four-dimensional framework for inclusive innovation in developed countries. Specifically, innovation needs to be inclusive in terms of people, activities, outcomes, and governance: i) individuals and groups participating in the innovation process at all levels; ii) the types of innovation activities considered; iii) the consideration of all positive and negative outcomes of innovation (including economic, social, and environmental); and iv) the governance of innovation systems. This framework is intended to guide policy development for inclusive innovation, as well as to encourage academics to investigate all dimensions of inclusive innovation in developed countries. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 7 %P 34-46 %8 07/2017 %G eng %U http://timreview.ca/article/1089 %N 7 %1 University of Ottawa R. Sandra Schillo is an Assistant Professor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa, Canada, and an affiliate of the Institute for Science, Society and Policy at the University of Ottawa. Prof. Schillo’s research explores aspects of innovation and entrepreneurship that have policy and societal relevance. She has a strong background in technology transfer through her PhD (University of Kiel, Germany) and Master’s level research (University of Karlsruhe, Germany). She also has practical experience in innovation management within the Canadian federal government and consulting on innovation and entrepreneurship policy issues. %2 University of Ottawa Ryan M. Robinson is a Third Year Undergraduate student attending the University of Ottawa’s Telfer School of Business Management in Ottawa, Canada. He was born and raised in Oshawa, Canada: a city with its history carved out by advances in technological innovation. Today, Ryan balances living in these two very different locales, both of which are writing the story of diversity and inclusion in Canada. Being continuously surrounded by innovative landscapes, Ryan plans continue to study the evolution of innovation in Canada following the completion of his degree in Finance. %R http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/1089
