This book provides a broad overview of Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-supported innovation both on an evidence-based level, a theoretical and a methodological level. It presents multi-disciplinary perspectives on organizational innovation in enterprises and the public sector, and on the ubiquitous social media-based user innovations. The book especially highlights innovation in knowledge work and human-computer interaction, innovation of and in socio-technical systems, and user-based innovation in public services. It draws upon evidence from various areas of application, including innovative mobility and the factories of the future. The studies presented here will be helpful both for innovation scholars and practitioners in industry as well as innovators at large in their current and future studies and undertakings.

Presents an indispensable overview of topical studies from a multi-disciplinary perspective Includes an overview of the broad range of research methods currently applied by information systems scholars Outlines the most relevant research topics in the field of digital innovation Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

He has published research papers in national and international journals and in books. After enjoying a 17 years long career in industry, Raphael Giesecke returned to academic work in 2007. He has directed various, often large-scale, multi-national and multi-disciplinary research projects at Airbus, the leading aircraft manufacturer, and at the department of Industrial Engineering and Management at Aalto University's School of Science in Finland. His research interest is in innovation networks on two levels organisations and individual persons. Giesecke has studied a variety of innovation ecosystems in change and disruption, starting from the news media industry and live events ecosystems towards electric mobility and, most recently, digital services. Michele Missikoff. After 10 years in a major Italian software industry and in an Aerospace system integrator, he worked for 30 years at Italian CNR (National Research Council), where his carrier progressed until the last level of Research Director.
