I construct an endogenous growth model, where the probability of succeeding in innovation is ambiguous and assumed to be contained in an interval. In this model, a firm that succeeds in innovation conducts investment in improving its productivity. Before succeeding in innovation, a firm evaluates the lifetime profit by the lowest possible probability. After succeeding in innovation, however, a firm evaluates the lifetime profit by the highest probability. This property implies that if the innovation probability becomes more ambiguous, less innovation is conducted and the productivity becomes lower. An endogenous growth model with a single innovation probability has a difficulty in explaining this feature.
