They acknowledged the concentric bias of the enactor perspective (technology developers and promoters who project a linear path from their technology option into the future described in Box 1) and attempted to broaden this concentric bias by taking into consideration open-ended nature of their projections and structured explorations of the journey-like
and is shaped by broader framing conditions and by anticipatory coordination on the part of technology developers and promoters,
+8 Still the focus of technology developers in their FTA ACTIVITIES, focus on paths (such as roadmapping) rather than journeys.
those of technology developers and promoters they term insiders (that focus on innovation through enactment cycles) and outsiders (who focus on comparing
and elsewhere) but have been ad hoc and mainly centred around technology developer outreach programmes. Also, there is something like a regulation void,
I have placed innovation journeys at the micro-level, technology developer coordination attempts at the meso-level and selector coordination and control at the macro-level.
and technology developers begin to start anticipating on societal acceptance of products. Proliferation of engagement/communication approaches at the micro-level allows justification of societal awareness as a strategy for ensuring societal acceptance.
researchers and technology developers do not feel pressure and continue with their R&d unabated. This was inspired by interviews at an annual meeting of the Frontiers Noe,
entanglements due to sunk investments (Finnish policy), collective decision on technology developer side for soft law, etc.
(and used) for transition policy. 4 15 Used for open-ended roadmapping by technology developers at early stages of development 6. 16 Used for exploring industrial/sectorial alignment/misalignments. 17 See Haico
but the promising direction is available through the informal expectations circulating amongst technology developers. Expectations thus reduce uncertainty in much the same way as heuristics do in research and development (Nelson andwinter 1982.
Table 3 shows the landscape of diagnosstic technology application as seen from both the user's and the technology developer's point of view.
