TECHNOLOGY LANDSCAPE ANALYSIS AND RESEARCH

1

• Technology Landscape
• In todays era companies are actively working
  towards sustainable business expansion by
  addressing the aspects of When, Where How can
  they boost their business globally. Dedicating to
  new disruptive technology can be a
  game-changing decision for any company. Due to
  the speed at which any trend or technology
  changes today, making the right decision related
  to technology choice is critical to success.
• Through technology landscape analysis,
  best-suited solutions to the field of interest
  can be provided.
• It can provide information related to emerging,
  latest, or future trends of innovation that are
• relevant to the companys long-term plans. The
  study can also give an overview of regulatory
  norms and compliances relevant to technology and
  ways of commercialization of the technology.
• Therefore, the technology landscape is an initial
  point of a long-term and interactive matching
  process between external and internal
  technologies requirements for strategic purposes.
• Technology Landscape can Impact
  Strategic-Decision Making
• Technology Landscaping helps in simplifying
  complex business issues and assesses a wide range
