Fredrik Erixon and Bjorn Weigel refute this idea, bringing together a vast array of data and case studies to tell a very different story. With expertise spanning academia and the business world, Erixon and Weigel illustrate how innovation is being hampered by existing government regulations and corporate practices. Capitalism, they argue, has lost its mojo. Assessing the experiences of global companies, including Nokia, Uber, IBM, and Apple, the authors explore three key themes: declining economic dynamism in Western economies; growing corporate reluctance to contest markets and innovate; and excessive regulation limiting the diffusion of innovation. At a time of low growth, high unemployment, and increasing income inequality, innovation-led growth is more necessary than ever. This book unequivocally details the obstacles hindering our future prosperity. 606 $aTechnological innovations$xEconomic aspects 606 $aTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects 606 $aLabor 606 $aCapitalism 615 0$aTechnological innovations$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aLabor. 615 0$aCapitalism. 676 $a338/.064 700 $aErixon$b Fredrik$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01209951 702 $aWeigel$b Björn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825745903321 996 $aThe innovation illusion$94099034 997 $aUNINA
