TEKNO-BAROMETER












“Competing without competitive intelligence is like taking part in a race without looking at the other runners”


How is a race prepared?

4. Before starting, the competitors and their abilities are assessed.

5. During the race, always check the competitor’s position. Never run without looking either side.




DESCRIPTION
Tekno-Barometer is a quantitative tool that characterises the state of maturity of technologies within a sector. We determine the technology readiness level (TRL) based on the goodness of fit between real publication/patent/news data and S-type and Hype curves.
More methodological details in the article: René Lezama-Nicolás et al. (2018) "A bibliometric method for assessing technological maturity: the case of additive manufacturing". Scientometrics. 117(3) pp 1425–1452. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-018-2941-1




ADVANTAGES
It makes it possible to visualize the situation of your technologies compared with those that are being used within your sector.

It ranks the readiness level: Embryonic, Emergent, Growth, Development, and readiness, allowing visualization and comparison.



WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS GAIN?
Help in deciding when technologies are about to change, as well as the best and safest time for the company to invest in new technologies.
