Value refers to the criteria used to make decisions, like the use value, economic value, or cultural value of products. Value is directly connected to innovation, whether breakthrough innovations that are new to the world, or adding-value innovations that connect products to culture. Innovations can be created through technological or cultural processes and can be adopted/adapted, planned/structured, targeted/objective-driven, or serendipitous/stochastic. Value is also still directly connected to investment, with everyone aiming for the highest capital value return.
