The Seminar on which this book is based, held within the framework
of the well-known 'Eurocourses' of the Joint Research Centre of the
Commission of the European Communities, emphasized the relation
between technological forecasting and industrial innovation:
national and corporate strategies aiming at the latter for the sake
of productivity and competitivity should build upon the former. The
book, like the Seminar, consists of three parts. Part I deals with
the innovation processes and models and tackles some forecasting
methodologies, as those based upon economic driving forces and
technological competition. Part II is a review of prospected
innovation in the short term in key generic technologies. Part III
emphasizes the role in the innovation process of various innovation
practitioners and their need for or practice of technological
forecasting. The various papers have been contributed by senior
academic and research scientists (Part I) and senior industrialists
(Parts II and III). The Editor, an electrical and nuclear engineer,
is currently senior adviser at the recently created Institute for
Prospective Technological Studies of the Joint Research Centre of
the CEC.
