Hybrid Typologies and Innovation Outcomes

2015
Conference Papers

Abstract

Hybrid organisations, which embody conflicting logics in the core of their activities, are widely spread in our modern societies. Because they combine different fields of knowledge, hybrids may be able to solve market and societal problems in unconventional and innovative ways. Therefore, researchers have been extensively using hybrids as a setting to study organisational responses to conflicting institutional logics, and organisational innovation. This work speaks to this growing, but still small line of inquiry, focusing on how different hybrid configurations may link to innovation outcomes in terms of types and levels. The aim of this proposal is twofold: establish empirically a typology for hybrid configurations; and describe how hybrid configurations influence innovation outcomes.

Innovation

Innovation is the practical implementation of ideas that result in the introduction of new goods or services or improvement in offering goods or services. ISO TC 279 in the standard ISO 56000:2020 defines innovation as "a new or changed entity realizing or redistributing value". Others have different definitions; a common element in the definitions is a focus on newness, improvement, and spread of ideas or technologies.

Hybrid regime

A hybrid regime is a type of political system often created as a result of an incomplete democratic transition from an authoritarian regime to a democratic one (or vice versa). Hybrid regimes are categorized as having a combination of autocratic features with democratic ones and can simultaneously hold political repressions and regular elections. Hybrid regimes are commonly found in developing countries with abundant natural resources such as petro-states.

Hybrid vehicle drivetrain

Hybrid vehicle drivetrains transmit power to the driving wheels for hybrid vehicles. A hybrid vehicle has multiple forms of motive power. Hybrids come in many configurations. For example, a hybrid may receive its energy by burning gasoline, but switch between an electric motor and a combustion engine. Electrical vehicles have a long history combining internal combustion and electrical transmission - as in a diesel–electric power-train - although they have mostly been used for rail locomotives.
