“…Our analysis suggests that the discussion is moving from whether students should be educated on DT for product development, to how to empirically measure the impact of product design courses on students' learning [76], [78], [79]. In particular, there seems to be a trend in promoting university-industry collaboration [78], [79] in order to not only give students opportunities for practical experience but also professionals a chance to learn from young minds.…”

“…As a consequence, researchers are interested in investigating pedagogical models suitable to improving how DT is taught to engineering students [77]. More recent studies highlight the importance of not only including DT in educational programs, but also of promoting university-industry collaboration [78], [79] and university-community collaboration to develop health interventions, for example [80]. Finally, when investigating the link between DT practices and student performance, Roth et al [5] found that DT led to the psychological empowerment of students as it positively affected project performance.…”

“…Researchers [76], [78] are now interested in investigating how they can actually measure the impact of these courses on the learning and development of students. Moreover, scholars [86], [87] are calling for more research to understand how to teach students a more sustainable mindset, and how to develop a stronger collaboration with industry [79] and society [80].…”

Scholars have suggested that design thinking (DT) should form an integral part of the new product development (NPD) process. However, the contribution of DT to NPD over the past years is yet to be synthesized. In this article, we develop a conceptual framework categorizing how DT contributes to NPD, and present a map to visualize how research in the area of DT in NPD has evolved over the past 20 years. A systematic analysis of 89 journal papers published between 2000 and 2020 helped to generate a conceptual framework, which provides a typology for discussing the growing state of the art of DT in NPD. The study enhances the academic debate by providing a holistic perspective on how DT contributes to the NPD ecosystem and offers directions for future research for the next 20 years.

Teachers, researchers, but not innovators? Rethinking university-industry collaboration

Purpose Universities, when collaborating with industry, are generally assumed to be the motors for innovation. Inspired by a case on a university’s collaboration with small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in a regional strategic network (RSN), this paper aims to put forth how the university makes important contributions through transferring knowledge on innovation processes that is a teaching role, rather than sees itself as the party producing innovations. This paper describes and discusses the university’s teaching role and its consequences in university-industry collaborations for innovation. Design/methodology/approach Empirically, the paper departs from a mid-Swedish RSN where nine SMEs started to work with a university. Interviews with representatives of the nine SMEs participating in the innovation project, along with university and RSN representatives, comprise the main data source. The paper analyzes the university’s teaching role and the consequences of it. Findings Findings point at how the SMEs developed structured innovation processes, improved their market intelligence and increased their efficiency in providing new solutions. The university facilitated knowledge, while the SMEs responded through creating knowledge both on how to innovate and in terms of innovations. Originality/value The teaching role, which would mean that the university stays with one of its core functions, indicates a need to rethink university-industry collaboration related to expectations and role division. Moving from producing innovations to facilitating knowledge on how to innovate, would, for universities, mean that they minimize those conflicts emerging from their various roles and indicate that the production of innovation is placed at those devoted to run and grow businesses.

Abstract: The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill.
