And by definition, if that’s how the median performer fared, half of committed innovators score even lower. The median committed innovator fell short of best practice on every i2i dimension, sometimes significantly. A perfect i2i score is 100-and only about a quarter of committed innovators scored 80 or above. This year, we asked respondents a series of questions that enabled us to use BCG’s innovation-to-impact benchmarking framework ( i2i by BCG) to assess the readiness of their innovation systems. Many committed innovators face a big readiness gap. We call these companies committed innovators.Īn organization can create real value only if its underlying innovation system is ready to translate priority and commitment into results.
