Read Peter Druckerâs âinnovation and entrepreneurshipâ? Lays out a 7 sources framework for identifying opportunities for innovation thatâs super useful, but no one ever talks about that book.

Totally. But atleast google the 7 sources of innovative opportunity. He makes a good argument that if ur product exploits at least 3 out of the 7, u have a solid chance of success. Heâs a historian, they can be useful
