Measuring innovation capability
Measuring innovation capability is crucial for understanding an organization’s ability to generate, manage, and implement innovative ideas effectively. It involves assessing various factors that contribute to innovation success and identifying areas for improvement. We have developed proven measuring instruments to measure the Innovation Capability or Innovation Readiness of organizations. Based on the score for the different metrics, an organisation will have an indication of how ready it is for innovation.

Implementing a measurement framework involves defining objectives, selecting metrics, collecting data, reporting results, and continuous improvement. This process helps organizations track progress, make informed decisions, and enhance innovation success.
