To understand these two been used within innovation management, we systematically review both identify 26 definitions for both, underscoring need greater precision. Building from our systematic review, synthesize integrate findings to derive clear parsimonious of digitization digitalization propose a framework that links with existing scholarship. We then discuss implications on theories process transformation. recommend future research into design principles, product life cycle, knowledge accumulation, generativity, feedback dynamics framework. also provide practitioner limitations.
