and why future disruptive changes may happen in a system. It also provides insight into how foresight techniques need to be developed to perform better in complex systems to enable better decision-making and policy making.

It follows that disruptive change is a prime focus for FTA, a highly contentious statement since many of the most disruptive changes in the Earths'and human history have happened with FTA nowhere to be seen.

The immense disruption caused by the change from an oxygen poor to an oxygen rich atmosphere is one example.

and technology are the prime movers in disruptive change: here, it is assumed that they are not and nor should they be considered as such.

The growing pace of technology developmment and the continuous emergence of disruptive changes in customer needs have contributed together to greatly increased dynamism in these industries and for these firms.

and respond to transforming disruptive change. The proposed management framework and the roles that FTA can play are introduced then comparing networks to complex sympoietic systems.

what enable the system to adapt to disruptive changes. Rather than looking for one generic business model for sustainability

the firm will be armed then with better and clearer opportunities for an evolutionary leap in sustainability performance and to deal with disruptive change, in alignment with the partners in its network.

Dealing with disruptive changes and grand challenges in particular therefore, raises several conceptual, methodological and operational issues. Two of them are general,

and addressing continuous as well as disruptive change, and thus more adaptive or setting new trends and/or developing new modes of operation.

and discontinuity much emphasised by grand challenges, transformations and disruptive changes that claim for adaptation and alignment as coping strategies.

The exercise set out to map the long-term uncertainties of developments around international science cooperation with a view to building greater agility vis-a vis disruptive change.
