Nonetheless, there was a push to extend concepts and theoretical insights from these areas to a larger variety of social sciences and humanities disciplines, such as epistemology, political science, sociology, economics
the need for accurate insight into and anticipation of user's needs and expectations; and the emerging necessity of diagnosing the changing innovation landscape to address these issues forForesightful Innovation.'
Drawing on insights yielded through the scanning exercise in Phase 1, six current user profiles were identified.

Moreover, the insights generated via discussions with the managers were used to promote an indeept analysis of the existing BSC
which social relations and the communication of insights and knowledge 44 are critical for successful outcomes.
These studies have provided insight into how futures research methods and innovation processes can be combined and integrated 3, how technology intelligence processes can be organized 4
it led to the insight that significantly different characteristics are attributed to the brand than expected.
This insight eventually led to new car configurations, i e.,, the results of the foresight project challenged existing development projects
The integration of new partners with additional competences, ideas and insights broaden the innovation potential of the network. 4. 2. 5. Networked foresight activities Futures research activities are conducted in particular within the innovation management unit of EICT.
The outcome of the applied futures research methods is broadened substantially in projects with interdisciplinary character and a combination of knowledge and insight from various industries.
Dedication to quality, insights, effective communications and innovation are also important. Translate and transfer FTA outputs into policy and decision outcomes.
and their insights can be translaate into technical requirements. The authors descrrib how user involvement can be applied during three different research stages in the innovation process,

Your advice and insights would be welcomed In the second phase, we examined the institutions viewed as having the best foresight practices
Results The definition of success Overall the studies provide a rich array of insights and observations-data on the most dynamic public foresight programs in the world.
At an operational level, the nascent Canadian foresiigh initiative (2002 2008) was able to produce some excellent projects with strong insights,
Scope and main insights Better understanding of patterns of infectious diseaase needs input from anthropology,
The key insights include: the mappiin between key technologies that should converge in each stage of the EID life cycle,
Bibliometric analysis and online survey complement each other in providing insights which provided scope and focus to the study.

Furthermore, as userdriive innovation deals with those user insights (needs, expectations etc. that users cannot always easily articulate,
Although it is crucial that the user insights generated find their way into the development process,
the adequate translation and transformation of user insights and requirements into more technical requirements (and vice versa), is still a challenge.

the analysis yielded valuable insights into the appeal of certain types of application to certain user clusters, by means of profound analysis of interest,
The intention of this stage is to translate insights from the user research into workable requirements.
and how insights from user research might be translated adequaatel into technical requirements. Future research will include the testing of this multimettho approach with a large number of users and several usage contexts and parameters in a living lab setting.
