  • Abstract
    There are two primary factors of risk in product innovation ¿ technical risk and marketing risk. Technical risk is the possibility that the new product will fail for technical reasons, either in laboratory and field tests or in actual use by the customer. Marketing risk is the possibility of failure in the marketplace even though the product is a technical success.
