A definition-based typology of innovations As we highlighted in the previous section, an innovation has two important facets: newness and change. Innovations will therefore differ in terms of (i) what is new (the object); and (ii) how big is the change (the intensity). The first way we can categorize innovation is therefore by differentiating what is new: the offer or the way it is offered. The second way to differentiate innovations is by assessing the importance of the change involved, from small (incremental) to large (revolutionary).

Not all available entrepreneurial opportunities should be pursued. Innovation should be a means to achieve the strategic objectives, mission and vision that the firm has defined.
