That is correct. Economic growth (and profit) are only one of several things that can drive technological innovation. Some may argue that competitiveness and the race for supremacy can lead to innovation, as seen with the space race during the Cold War, which lead to satellites and a focus on space to compete with the Soviet Union. Others argue that another factor that can drive technological innovation is public funding - universities tend to do publicly-funded research in medicine and other fields.
