Sport innovation management: towards a research agenda

There is a large body of knowledge about innovation management but less is known from a specific sport perspective. This is unusual as sport management has an abundance of innovation due to its emphasis on technology and change. The aim of this paper is to bring together the fields of innovation management and sport management by proposing a research agenda focusing specifically on sport innovation management. This will help to bridge the gap between sport and innovation studies by suggesting future research directions and managerial implications.
