Abstract

Theories of change revisited. In the context of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the challenges ahead, actors must think beyond an innovation strategy above and foremost about the impact they want to achieve. They need to realise that impact does not stem from innovation but from the scaling of innovation results. Thus the outcomes of their theory of change in terms of what their innovation should achieve becomes of key importance. There needs to be a paradigm shift: Today we move from problem solving concepts like environmental and social governance to creating a future based on the SDGs, which provide target knowledge. How does economy 3.0 look like in 2030, 2400 or 2050?
