Abstract

Innovation is a process that consists of phases and activities and requires resources and knowledge. Innovation models define the innovation process. Innovation models are mentioned in the literature reviews with different names such as work frame, paradigm, sequence, process, etc. In this paper we give a summary of six generations of innovation models in order to show their transformation from linear models to models of open innovation. Each generation of innovation models has a specific character. Independent of the chronology and typology that has been used to separate models into generations, the focus can be put on social, educational and organizational innovation on one side, and technological innovation on the other side. We focus on the company level innovation models. The first and second generation innovation models are very simple and they are predictors of innovation models of the third generation which confirm that innovation can occur in different places throughout the process. The fourth generation focuses on product and process integration and the fifth generation models accent system integration and networking. The sixth generation of innovation models is characterized by dynamism, integration, systematic approach and a high level of interactivity.
