Abstract

In the following article the author analyzes the process of innovation creation by business enterprises. Special emphasis is put on the early-stage technology development which allows to gradually transform invention into innovation. In the further part of the paper three kinds of uncertainty concerning the corporate innovation processes are discussed. Then the author identifies, in his opinion, the key threat in R&D projects, i.e. the resource gap. The causes of resource gap are then thoroughly discussed and explained using both the appropriate psychological theory and the game-theoretic approach. Finally, the potential managerial and economic consequences of the resource gap are shown.
