Technology Scouting - A Case Study on the Deutsche Telekom Laboratories

Overview Technology Intelligence has become an important field of study in which a variety of different methods are discussed, all aiming at identifying opportunities and threats arising from advances in technology. In this respect, Technology Scouting is a method which can lower the time lag between the advances in technology and their detection by methods such as patent or publication analysis. Furthermore, in an environment of increasing technological complexity and the globalization of R&D, the successful identification and usage of external sources of knowledge is becoming increasingly important. Based on two case studies of the Deutsche Telekom and British Telecom, this paper proposes a definition of Technology Scouting, a generic process, and identifies the motivations of the actors in the process.
