The implementation of an innovation landscape has transformed the emerging Asia-Pacific economies in the past few decades with increased investment opportunities and multinational organizations. This review highlights the key studies and theories. In addition, the antecedents, decisions, and outcomes (ADO) framework is used to review the extant literature in the field of innovation implementation in context of both the emerging Asia-Pacific economies and developed economies. Based on literature review from 1981 to 2019, this review identifies the key theories, methods, characteristics, and contexts from emerging economies of the Asia-Pacific and developed economies perspective. The review shows that innovation implementation in emerging Asia-Pacific economies is underdeveloped and still growing. The results on emerging economies are more oriented towards the organizational antecedents rather than other aspects of developed economies. In the context of emerging economies, the basic decision variables include adoption and day-to-day decision-making based on current challenges faced by the organization. The study finds that outcomes of innovation implementation in emerging economies have not been widely investigated. Future research directions are provided in the context of emerging Asia-Pacific economies and practical implications are discussed.
