Innovation forecasting

Article Abstract:

The conceptual base which predicates technological forecasting is the extent of orderliness in the process of innovation. A study developed a set of concepts that can be applied to an analysis of the prospects of particular technologies in becoming successes. The resulting set of conceptually linked measures, when integrated with other information such as expert opinions, can furnish an improved basis to forecast the prospects for successful technological innovation.
