Description
Innovation has been studied from several different perspectives. Since innovation has increasingly become a nonlinear, interactive and open activity, social network analysis provides a handy tool to examine this phenomenon. This paper aims to review and synthesize the studies that have examined the phenomenon of innovation from a social network perspective. The current state of the literature, gaps and future research direction are discussed.
