How IdeaConnection Helps You Benefit from Emerging Technologies
Is your company known for leaping on hot, new technologies and creating successful business models from them? Or does it prevaricate and wait for months, potentially missing out on myriad opportunities as competitors get there first?
The American writer and thinker Steward Brand once commented that, “Once a new technology rolls over you, if you’re not part of the steamroller, you’re part of the road.”
IdeaConnection’s Emerging Technologies service is a powerful platform that sources emerging technologies before they are made available to the public.
Every day companies are licencing or buying new technologies that are about to hit the market. Our members of staff proactively engage with relevant universities, tech transfer officers, researchers, principle investigators, associations, companies and others to catch these technologies before they enter the databases and before they are listed for sale.
Competitive Advantages
This provides our clients with a unique opportunity to discover and learn about these technologies long before their competitors get wind of them. This is valuable time that can be used to create new products and services and get a head start in the market place.
Sometimes IdeaConnection even lists emerging technologies when final proof of concept is being done and when patents are still pending.
Among the 64 emerging technologies currently listed on IdeaConnection are:
• Biomedical Technologies – quantum dots to enhance the function of excitable cells
• Food Science Technologies – scientists develop handheld device to detect bacteria on food
• Life Sciences Technologies – discovery of HIV ‘invisibility cloak’ reveals new treatment opportunities
