Syllabus
This unit focuses on the management of innovation. The fundamental ideas underlying this unit are that (1)
innovation is the driving force in establishing a firm’s competitive advantage, (2) innovation is managed by leaders
and teams with multiple competencies, and (3) a firm’s innovation strategy emerges from its competencies and
capabilities. These fundamentals are then applied to new venture creation through first hand interaction with
innovative entrepreneurs developing new innovations and technologies from the business community as well as
university developed inventions with intent to commercialise their Intellectual Property. This allows the real world
of the innovative entrepreneur to reinforce and sometimes challenge accepted theories of innovation and
entrepreneurship.
Introduction
Welcome to Management of Innovation!
Innovation (of a commercial nature) involves the use of both internal and external resources and relationships in
a dynamic process involving multiple activities, cross-functional, interdisciplinary teams and relationships. We
think it is therefore critical that any commercial innovation management (aka commercialisation) course adopts a
holistic approach, encompassing a range of issues including intellectual property creation, protection and
dissemination, managing organisational knowledge and interfirm collaborations/networks, just to name a few. We
aim to achieve your broad understanding of innovation management strategy and in the process gain an
appreciation of the central role that entrepreneurial management (entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs)
play in transferring intellectual property from discovery to commercial success. We are privileged at Curtin to be
able to do this by examining some of the commercial successes (and failures) that have been developed by our
own scientists that have reached global markets and even become heralded stock exchange listed entities. We
do use a very relevant commercialisation textbook that focusses on a so-called Cyclic Innovation Model (CIM) in
the first half of the semester. We use this CIM framework to breakdown and understand key concepts and some
core theory, then test you on this foundational material in mid-term. You will then apply emerging research to
showcase some real commercialisation cases which we are lucky to have access to at Curtin via the support of
own IP Commercialisation Office, to demonstrate your own creativity as an individual and as a team.
Unit Learning Outcomes
All graduates of Curtin University achieve a set of six Graduate Capabilities during their course of study. These
inform an employer that, through your studies, you have acquired discipline knowledge and a range of other skills
and capabilities which employers would value in a professional setting. Each unit in your course addresses the
Graduate Capabilities through a clearly identified set of learning outcomes. They form a vital part in the process
referred to as assurance of learning. The learning outcomes notify you of what you are expected to know,
understand or be able to do in order to be successful in this unit. Each assessment for this unit is carefully
designed to test your knowledge of one or more of the unit learning outcomes. On successfully completing all of
the assessments you will have achieved all of these learning outcomes.
Your course has been designed so that on graduating you will have achieved all of Curtin's Graduate Capabilities
through the assurance of learning processes in each unit.

Learning Activities
A standout aspect of this unit is the focus on real-life spin-out companies undergoing commercialisation at Curtin,
with the financial support and technical assistance of Curtin University, via our IP Commercialisation Office. Given
the dynamic nature of these real-life cases, each semester we do learn more about the start-ups we are following
and about the technology transfer ecosystem at Curtin. Your work will be informed in part by existing innovation
literature, past company interactions and also by recent happenings in each of the cases. None of us (your
instructors included) can predict where these cases will lead our investigation this semester. Therefore, your team-
based learning activity is set to encourage your creative juices to flow. This results in something of a cross
between, journalism, research and activity-based learning. In MOI, different is the new normal…but it is not
creativity for its own sake. Just like commercial innovation, it is purposeful effective creativity that leads to a
positive outcome for you in the form of a higher grade. Yes, we have a good textbook, and yes there is an
individual mid semester test and an individual assignment (to ensure the fundamentals are embedded).
However, it is in the application of this knowledge that will showcase your capacity to creatively apply theory to
practice.
