International Journal of Electronic Business (IJEB), Vol. 2, No. 1, 2004

Abstract: This paper aims to examine the changes to innovation brought about by the internet, and paints an overall picture about e-innovation.

These expansions are leading e-innovation to become a new platform, which is characterised by five Ds: digital form, distributed nature, decoupling activities, dedication to channel change, and deployment of different rules. To develop further the platform, six barriers have to be overcome.
