Abstract: Given the high percentage of turnover invested in R&D, the cost structure and segmentation of investment in high-tech firms necessitate regular review of resource allocation. For high-tech firms, the vital importance of innovation management is one of the building stones of a successful business. The key question remains how innovations can be managed throughout the S-curve of technological performance from the strategic point of view? The aim of this study is to capture an innovation framework for high-tech firms enabling them to actualize the value of technological breakthroughs based on a case study. The author's results are performance-driven. She will address some of the causes behind a technological failure along with its impact on the firm's profit margins. Based on the management insights of her case company, the author sees that innovation policies in high-tech companies can be dissected into four main management phases: sources, formulation, execution and maintenance. New research opportunities are opened in the performance review of technological innovations for listed companies.
