Technology Innovation Strategy
• Supporting Internal Factors – Technical capabilities
– Organizational capabilities
– Success of the current business model
– Funding
– Top management vision
• Influencing External factors – Capabilities in the external
network – vendors, alliances
– Industry structure
– Competition
– Rate of technological change
• Invest in changes in technology and business models with the intent of outpacing competitors through radical innovation.
• Commit to a portfolio of investments that are fundamental for ongoing success
8
Technology Innovation Activities
• Monitor and analyze the technology innovation landscape
• Competitors, partners, vendors, industry experts • Customers, employees (crowdsourcing)
• Explore new ideas, develop and pilot new solutions
to help business divisions and their customers • Innovate to accelerate new product and process
deployment • Demonstrate what “the future of business” can be
• Collaborate with universities and research institutes in Russia and worldwide

Technology Innovation Projects Assessing Maturity and Value Gaps
• Technology Innovation Maturity Stages
– Embryonic – research – Emerging – startups – Adolescent – adoption – Mature – version 1.0 à 3.0
• Innovation Value Gaps – concept vs. solution
– Performance, scalability
– Integration with existing environment » processes, infrastructure, organizational
structures and capabilities
– Penetration – by when is it expected to achieve critical deployment / mass adoption?
– Payback, ROI – estimate timeline
• Innovation team KPI / Value Metrics need to address all 4 value gaps

Technology Innovation Projects High-Level Plan Template
Concept = Idea Creation and
Selection
• Scope the problem • Track, rank, decide
Development
• Evaluate technology, share, test, review, revise plans
• Incubate prototypes, pilots
Deployment
• Large-scale pilots • Evangelize, transfer, support,
training

Project Name: Project Lead:
Description (the “elevator pitch”) In simple terms- what is the business problem or opportunity? How does this address it? Where does this fit into the existing portfolio of applications our employees or customers use today? Why would this be considered a better alternative or strong addition to the portfolio?
Size of proposed investment __ Minimal __Small (1-2 ) __ Medium(3-4) __ Large ( 5 and over) Other costs – vendors, special HW/SW
Current approach and what is the proposed innovation? How is this different than existing approaches (are there any)? Does functionality exists anywhere else - if yes, why is this better, faster, smarter, etc? If this is a new capability, how would this improve productivity, reduce cost, increase revenue? Who else is experimenting with similar ideas - who are they aligned with, how are we aligned with them or how is their work different? For updates: What's new in our thinking since we started project? Is technology still right /relevant, is this still the right approach?
Use case/business value statement and potential stakeholder Who (end user types) are we talking with about this concept? Who is the potential audience and how large is that audience? Who is the stakeholder(s)? What decision maker is (should be) involved? Who should we be aligned with for pilot and eventual deployment? What role does this play in strategic initiatives? Key Milestones/Date Amount of time estimated in each phase? When is project end planned? What are exit criteria? How have we aligned with key stakeholders in each phase? Are there any dependencies on other projects or tools?
Strategy Alignment – name of strategic initiative, if any

Technology Innovation Derailment Factors What Can Go Wrong…
• Balance creativity and value creation
• Too many incremental innovations
• ROI is the only success metric
• Inflexible funding
• Focus on innovation process efficiency as opposed to value creation
• Managers respond to good ideas with indifference and/or complacency
• Too much criticism, not enough support/collaboration
• “If it’s not my idea, it must be bad”
• Failures are punished • Incentive system for short-
term efficiencies
