The aim of this exercise is to learn on the innovation management flow between the global corporation and the local branch in Portugal.

In chapter one introduces the innovation scoring tool, instrument of work; chapter two covers the methodology used; the chapter tree presents the case study, subject of research; chapter four presents the findings; and chapter 5 closes with concluding remarks.</p>
