Innovation as a Singular Enabler
Preprint / Working Paper
Fascia, M. (2019). Innovation as a Singular Enabler

In this paper, we consider the value of knowledge in an innovation context and deliberate a contrary perspective from existing empiricisms to bring about better innovation efficiency within multi-agent arenas. To do this, we consider why, if innovati... Read More about Innovation as a Singular Enabler.
