Abstract
This paper presents the results of the activities of the Network of Construction Creativity Clubs (NCCC), which was a one year project funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) in the period January-December 2000. The NCCC was initiated by the Association of Researchers in Construction Management (ARCOM) as an academic/industry network for disseminating the innovations. A standard template was used to collate information on 80 innovations which were presented at the NCCC events across United Kingdom. An analysis of the collected information offers an insight into the environment which supports the innovations. The paper also presents the lessons learned about the conflicting interests in disseminating the innovations, and it provides an insight for the management and funding of similar projects in the future.
