The Challenge Of "Innovating Innovation" In Large Corporations. What Makes This Important For EMC Imagine you had to compete in an industry where (a) new innovations became commoditized almost overnight, (b) you were up against literally billions of dollars of external venture capital and corporate R&D, and (c) there were many thousands of very smart people outside of your company spending every waking hour trying to beat you at your own game.
That's the world EMC lives in. Making matters even more challenging at larger companies is that success at scale tends to stifle many forms of innovation: the natural organizational tendency is to invest time in getting better at what made you successful in the past vs. investing in potentially new, disruptive and controversial innovations. It's one area where start-ups can have a decided advantage -- unless there's a consistent and sustained effort to overcome these natural tendencies.

The Base and the Superstructure « (mass)think! [A delineation of the "Marxhouse" from Hewett] [Karl Marx describes what will be interpreted as the base/infrastructure-superstructure model in The German Ideology and the Preface to A Critique of Political Economy, which Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser develop further in the Prison Notebooks and “Ideology and Ideological State Apparatus,” respectively.]
The base-superstructure model is a theoretical framework that charts the different parts of society, how the elements interact, and how they form a coherent social structure. It is a tool that has been used by Marxists to schematize the shape that society takes at a particular time (hence it is a historical model). It has two main elements: the base and the superstructure, both of which can be specified further into two levels. The base is the economic foundation of society, what Marx describes as “the economic structure” determining “the material conditions of life” (PCPE 425).
