    No full text
    Organizational innovation adoption has received increasing attention in the marketing and management literature over the past two decades. Insight into adoption processes, its inhibitors and stimulators helps suppliers of innovations to market their new products more effectively. The objective of this paper is to discuss the main findings on organizational adoption and integrate them within a framework. The framework that we propose addresses the adoption decision at two levels, i.e. the organizational level and the individual adopter within an organization. We integrate research on innovation adoption and technology acceptance that have emerged in the marketing and management literature and identify several research issues that need further attention. © 2001 Elsevier Science Inc.

    Increasingly often, companies co-create' with consumers in open innovation practices to develop new products more effectively. Little is known about how co-creation affects consumer brand perceptions in the mass market. We hypothesize that co-creative brands - as opposed to non-co-creative brands - are perceived as more authentic and sincere, and are associated with relatively positive behavioural intentions. A between-subjects experiment was conducted to test these hypotheses in an online panel of consumers who did not take part in co-creation. The experiment had a 3 (control vs. co-creation vs. co-creation supported with some visual proof)x2 (well-known existing brand vs. fictitious brand) design. Quantitative data analyses (n=530) confirmed that for both brands, co-creation affects brand personality perceptions directly and behavioural intentions indirectly. This study shows that co-creating with consumers can be a strategic method to positively influence product perceptions and behavioural intentions
