Research of Innovation Diffusion on Industrial Networks

Abstract EN

The real value of innovation consists in its diffusion on industrial network.

The factors which affect the diffusion of innovation on industrial network are the topology of industrial network and rules of diffusion.

Industrial network is a complex network which has scale-free and small-world characters; its structure has some affection on threshold, length of path, enterprise’s status, and information share of innovation diffusion.

Based on the cost and attitude to risk of technical innovation, we present the “avalanche” diffusing model of technical innovation on industrial network.
