Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or a different service.

And they need to know and to apply the principles of successful innovation.

The top principle for disruptive and sustaining innovation is that it has to have a laser focus on customers. Innovation begins with their needs and expectations.
Intellectual-property rules are clearly necessary to spur innovation: if every invention could be stolen, or every new drug immediately copied, few people would invest in innovation. But too much protection can strangle competition and can limit what economists call 'incremental innovation' - innovations that build, in some way, on others.
