10 questions you should ask about that "interesting" innovation

I recently listed all of the publications, invitations, etc that were triggered by my three serial innovations. The list comprises 10 categories. I'm repeating the 10 here hoping it might be of use to innovators and reviewers.
  1. Any evidence that the innovation impacts business?
  2. Are there books or articles about it – published by respected organizations?
  3. Did it trigger invited speeches at premier events?
  4. Any research done around the topic of the innovation?
  5. Is it reviewed by experts in respected publications?
  6. Did it get citations in respected publications or events?
  7. Did it attract interviews by media or industry analysts?
  8. Did it garner media coverage?
  9. Have media or professional associations published the innovator’s biography?
  10. Is the innovation influencing (or changing) the field?
