Edison invented research and development as we know it. Menlo Park was a facility that operated for the objective of producing economically feasible inventions and introducing them to the marketplace. Up to his time most inventions came from individuals or small groups of people who had a vision for a single item that would "change the world." Edison was more focused on a production line of inventiveness that would make money and run Menlo Park as a business.
