Abstract

Technology monitoring may take on different meanings in a company’s day-to-day activities. In some cases it can be interpreted as a technology intelligence methodology while in others it is understood as technology forecasting or even as technology assessment. These different interpretations are confirmed by an analysis of the literature. After reviewing the literature on this topic, the paper discusses the firms approach to technology monitoring in a broad way, taking into consideration three different dimensions: the aim of technology monitoring, its organization and its implementation. Different examples of technology monitoring approach adopted by some companies are presented in order to explain the concepts discussed in the paper.
