abstract = {High technology markets can be extremely dynamic and grow very quickly, but they generally evolve in a specific lifecycle manner. Innovation is ever present, and some may argue the life-blood of all high technology firms, but the types of innovation and the projects that are harnessed to deliver these innovations change as firms grow, mature, and move through the high technology market lifecycle. Company age and size will have an effect upon the project organizational structure and management approach, but the types of innovation required at certain times in the lifecycle also concurrently drive the manner in which delivery projects are conceived. This paper builds on previous literature of high tech markets and firm innovation strategies, by the authors, to examine why projects are less formalized, product or technology-focused in smaller or early start-ups and growth companies, but evolve to highly formalized process-focused in mature companies. © 2017 American Society for Engineering Management.},
