Strategic planning in research and technology institutes
Article Abstract:
Nine of the most successful research and technology institutes (RTIs) in Europe, North America and East Asia were studied to determine the strategic needs of RTIs in adjusting to new user requirements and in adapting to an increasingly volatile financial and innovation environment. Results indicated that it is important for RTIs to determine the kind of business they are in and to have a clear understanding of the future requirements and opportunities for that particular type of business.
