- Benchmarking suggests a best practice split of 60/30/10 across the three categories. Using this: Incremental innovations involve modest changes to existing products and services. These are enhancements that keep a business up-to-date and competitive, such as new product features and service improvements. For example, autoplay on iPlayer. Sustaining innovation refers to large advances that provide users (be they audience members or internal users) with distinctive new experiences that propels an existing product or service ahead of competitors. For example, BBC Live’s integration of live text, video and audio in a single experience. Discontinuous innovation brings users a very different product, service or way of working than had previously been available. This sort of innovation can transform markets or create new markets and ways of working. For example, the launch of BBC News Online in 1997 transformed the market for news media, bringing audiences a totally new way of consuming news content.

- Introduce Connected Studio – three and a half years ago. Grown in size and output, including key programmes of work (FoC, BoC, World Service Africa) and individual team-specific projects (Radio 1, Radio 3, NHU) Short-term innovation projects (less than a year), from conception to pilot delivery Connected Studio briefs are driven by audience needs and insight, and proposals and pilots are tested on this throughout planning and development – never losing sight of our audience (who are “at the heart of everything we do”) Strong base of external creative and technical agencies that regularly attend workshops and programmes of events to get involved with new innovation opportunities
