The division of the sample into companies and research organisations reveals that companies are already much more involved in the elaboration of quality and compatibility standards than research organisations.
Since 1996 she held the position of Director of the Science and Technology policy Studies Unit at ATLANTIS Research organisation (Greece)
the role of these latter types of research organisations should not be ignored in policy discussions. 19 In sum,
First, a large number of research organisations (universities, public and private labs, firms, etc. located in currently laggard countries likely emerge as major players.
In other words, the number of the already existing types of research organisations can increase significantly, hence adding to the intensity of global competition,
That is putting extra burdens on the already tight budgets of research organisations, including universities. Tighter funding opportunities lead to increased competition among higher education and other public research organisations for restricted funds.

it is rather unlikely that it will lead to the emergence of a more forward-looking culture in innovation and research organisations.
The Government also noted that key measures towards this end will include the establishment of shared priorities, the strengthennin of the national and international profile of research organisations,
universities, research organisations. By June 2009, six strategic centres have started their operations (i e. energy and environment;

The second effort is negotiated currently to be tested within our own research organisation. We are trying to convince experts from different disciplines
Some reflections on the role that science roadmapping can play for research organisations how the experiences with technology roadmapping in companies or industries can be adapted for our T. Fleischer et al./

The Fraunhofer Society is Europe's largest contract research organisation and is taking this request seriously,
How does one of the largest research organisations in Europe reorient itself towards these challenges? For this, we need first of all to look at the Fraunhofer Society itself. 3. The Fraunhofer approach 3. 1 Strategic R&d planning within the Fraunhofer governance model Future-oriented technology analysis (FTA APPROACHES have been used within corporate strategic R&d planning at Fraunhofer for several years.
With a total budget of E1. 65 billion in 2010, Fraunhofer is the largest contract research organisation in Europe.
Therefore, every research organisation and every actor in the innovation system has to position itself or himself in 236.
The Dutch research organisation, TNO, has a strong relationship with the Dutch government. Therefore, they have to discuss their portfolio plans with the relevant Dutch ministries.
VTT, the Finnish research organisation, has a rather centralised research and technology development portfolio development. Although VTT is a governmental agency
SINTEF is the largest independent research organisation in Scandinavia. It is also searching forpractical solutions'.
To date, none of these research organisations has tried to orient itself towards global challenges. Therefore, the Fraunhofer experiment is unique among independent research institutions. 6. 2 Impact of the Fraunhofer future-oriented process The FTA PROCESS described in this paper produced dedicated research projects
