But what we really know about creativity? Which are the drivers? What are the boundaries of creative processes? How to evaluate creative ideas in startups? The age of the lone heroic inventor is over and now business creativity is process-based, often outsourced, it involves organizational resources and management practices, while creative expressions are increasingly protected as key intangible asset. In this book a diverse team of contributors from academia, intellectual property law and venture capital, offer an interdisciplinary, cross functional view about corporate creativity. How creativity is defined, the nature of the theories underpinning it, the relationship between creativity and entrepreneurship will be explored as well as how boundary spanning activities help in selecting and mobilizing creative talent in industries such as fashion. Finally the book shows how creative entrepreneurs embracing the tension between creative disruption and operational efficiency created innovative business models of extraordinary success.
