Explanation: People often use the words “invention” and “innovation” interchangeably. This is not only incorrect, but misses a few key subtleties in meaning that can change a conversation. Invention is about creating something new, while innovation introduces the concept of “use” of an idea or method. While this difference is subtle, and these words are listed in every thesaurus that I checked as synonyms of each other, they are definitely not 100% interchangeable. An invention is usually a “thing”, while an innovation is usually an invention that causes change in behavior or interactions.
Companies often claim to be a “leader in innovation”, and show a large pile of patents as evidence. Patents are evidence of inventions, of having thought of something first, and documenting the new invention through a legal process. The usefulness of those inventions is not proven, so “inventions” do not always equate to “innovations.” There are many patents which really do not have a use or have influenced no products or industries. Patents without a “use” are not innovation.
If innovations infer the “use” of a new idea or method, then an invention that leads to innovation is really qualified by how much it changes the behaviors of the users, the businesses, and the processes around it. Now perhaps the “Nose Pick” patent was a victim of bad marketing, poor manufacturing, or just a “right idea at the wrong time”, but obviously it has not changed behavior and become a commonplace item in the 14 years since the patent was granted
