The innovation “machine” is a set of processes and mechanisms
that enable innovators to convert ideas into innovations.
This machine carries innovations from idea to commercialization.
It is often a series of stages where ideas progress with key decision
points known as tollgates.
I-pipe’s key job is to not allow too much structure to kill the idea in
its formative stages and to reduce risk to the enterprise by
experimentation and learning as it matures through the pipeline.
