<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we develop a dynamic control model to investigate a monopolist's investment strategies in product innovation, process innovation and advertising-based goodwill. The significant features of our study are: (ⅰ) considering the effect of product quality on goodwill; (ⅱ) considering the instantaneous cost of producing a quality using machinery and/or skilled labour; (ⅲ) the customers' demand function depends on product quality, product price and goodwill in a separable multiplicative way between the state variables and control variables. Our results suggest that (ⅰ) the system admits unique saddle-point steady-state equilibrium under the monopolist optimum and the social optimum; (ⅱ) and the monopolist will have an underinvestment problem as compared with the social planner; and (ⅲ) although the product price is still determined by the monopolist under the social planner optimum, the product price is higher under the monopolist optimum than that under the social planner optimum.</p>

The purpose of this research is to analyze the determinants of product innovation and its impact on the financial performance of the organizations. Specifically, the study examines the impact of intelligence generation, intelligence dissemination, product-process innovation, marketing support of the product, quality, Dependability/ Delivery, Technology selection, Flexibility on the financial performance of the automobile companies. The models of product innovation provided the theoretical framework for the research. The model of product-process innovation provides the basis for further research. The first concept explains the link between organizations surroundings and its innovation targets (Utterback JM 1974, 1975) (Miller & Friesen, 1982)(Milling, 1996) whereas the second concept explains the connection between firm’s performance level i.e. innovative performance, financial performance, organizational performance and marketing performance and its innovation types i.e. product innovation, process innovation, organizational innovation and marketing innovation (Abernathy & Townseed, 1975) (Abernathy & Utterback, June/July 1978) (Gunday, et al., 2011). From these concepts evolved this study i.e. to evaluate the impact of product innovation on the financial performance of the organizations.

Purpose This study aims to explore the interaction of strategic knowledge management (SKM) and innovation on the performance of large manufacturing firms (LMFs) in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach This study used a quantitative approach in investigating this interaction. Smart partial least-squares analysis was performed to test the hypotheses. Findings It was observed that administrative innovation, process innovation and product innovation were effective drivers of LMF performance. It was also ascertained that SKM has no moderating effect on the product innovation relationship with performance, although it does moderate the relationships between LMF performance and administrative innovation and process innovation, respectively. Research limitations/implications The main limitation of this study is its focus on Malaysian LMFs. It nevertheless contributes to the literature by extending understanding of SKM and innovation dimensions from multi-faceted perspectives. As this is largely ignored in the literature, the study paves the way for additional research. Practical implications The findings may be used as guidelines for chief executive officers, particularly on the way SKM and innovation can be developed for enhanced LMF performance, in the context of South Asian countries. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first empirical work to confirm the main drivers of SKM, including in the analysis the effect of administrative innovation, process innovation and product innovation and performance, in the context of the manufacturing sector. In support of an original conceptual model, the insights contribute to the literature on innovation, LMFs, SKM and emerging economies.

The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of innovation on business performance of informal small business traders in Zimbabwe. The Open Theory of Innovation informed the study whilst data for the study was gathered using structured questionnaires where 175 informal small to medium enterprises (SME) offered validated responses. A causal, quantitative approach was assumed and data was analyzed using SPSS 22 software to identify the association, strength and direction of innovation and innovation determinants on SME performance. The results revealed that innovation is determined by product, process, marketing and organisational factors. The study thus found out that product innovation, process innovation and marketing innovation have strong positive association with SME performance (P < 0.05). However, the study found an insignificant association between organisational innovation and SMEs performance. The study thus concluded that for informal SMEs to enhance their performance and graduate from being small entities to large corporates, they should embrace product innovation, process innovation and marketing innovation.

Competition in the banking world in increasing the value of its assets is getting tighter.The presence of financial technology adds to the tight competition in the banking world. Rural Banks (BPR) which focuses on small community services and MSMEs must innovate in order to survive in the banking industry. This research aims to find out if there is an influence of product innovation, process innovation, marketing innovation and organizational innovation on business performance, with accidental sampling method to obtain 150 samples of BPR Customers Bogor District, this research uses Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) method to analyze the data obtained. The results showed that, there is a positive influence of product innovation, process innovation, marketing innovation and organizational innovation on business performance. Product innovation variables have a stronger impact on business performance than marketing innovation, organizational innovation and process innovation. Keywords : Product Innovation, Process Innovation, Marketing Innovation and Business Performance

This study aimed to examine and analyze the effect of administrative innovation on business competitiveness, technical innovations on business competitiveness, process innovation on business competitiveness, and product innovation on business competitiveness. This research conducted at manufacturing industry in Surabaya City, Indonesia. The number of samples was 100 business units, where the top manager or middle managers as the respondent. Methods of analysis use both descriptive statistical and Structural Equation Model (SEM). Data processed by IBM AMOS software. The results show that innovation strategy which consists of administrative innovation, technical innovation, process innovation, and product innovation can enhance organizational competitiveness in the manufacturing industry context. Administration innovation has a positive effect on business competitiveness. Technical innovation has a positive effect on business competitiveness. Process innovation has a positive effect on business competitiveness. Then, product innovation has a positive effect on business competitiveness. Process innovation has greater influence in improving business competitiveness compared to other innovation strategies.
