Our national security increasingly depends on access to the most
sophisticated and advanced technology. Yet, the next time we set
out to capture a terrorist leader we may fail. Why? The answer lies
in a conflict between two "worlds." One is the dynamic, global,
commercial world with its thriving innovation landscape. The other
is the world of national security, in which innovation is a matter
of life or death. The conflict is about secrecy. Innovating in a
Secret World is a detailed examination of the U.S. government and
innovation landscapes and the current trends in national
security-related research and development (R&D), so often
secret. Author and researcher Srivastava evaluates whether the
execution of technology innovation strategy in that world is
unintentionally leaving certain innovations behind or is
unintentionally precluding certain classes of innovators from
participating. She identifies the unintended consequences and
emergent behaviors that result. This unfolds in a complex, dynamic
system that includes the legal framework in which technology
innovation must exist. Srivastava suggests an emerging class of
R&D strategy called open innovation-a strategy that pertains to
broadening participation in innovation beyond an individual
organization or division traditionally assigned to perform R&D
activities. Through compelling stories of commercial and early
government applications, Srivastava shows how open technology
innovation strategies are promising and potentially advantageous in
enabling, accelerating, and enhancing technology innovation. If
open innovation could be successfully applied to closed U.S.
government R&D, the benefits to national security and global
leadership would be profound.
