Evaluation of the Expediency of Technology Commercialization: A Case of Information Technology and Biotechnology

Abstract

The ability to timely and objectively evaluate the expediency of technology commercialising is a crucial step for R&D organisations. It is a game with business success, which could enable to operate technologies efficiently and prevent unproductive investments. Managers in power, involved in the technology commercialization cycle, create rules for the game and are the leading players. The research establishes specifics of different technological fields, which are essential for assessing the expediency of technology commercialization. The scientific literature of technology commercialization didn’t take into account the specifics of different technological fields. The study presents the first two phases of the expediency of commercialization of the information technologies and biotechnologies evaluation models: the development of elements collections and the establishment of the importance of elements. The proposed technique could be expanded to select the most suitable technology for sustainable management of commercialization and the rational use of resources. The results of the expert’s survey aimed at establishing the importance of the elements are compared, efforts are made to identify differences in the evaluation the expediency of technology commercialization for information technologies and biotechnologies. The MCDM method has applied the selection of which was established by the motive related to the goal of evaluation – to evaluate the expediency of technology commercialization for information technologies and biotechnologies.

Predictors of Industry 4.0 Technologies Affecting Logistic Enterprises’ Performance: International Perspective From Economic Lens

“…This flexibility will enable more effective and faster implementation of measures mitigating potential damage to the economy. Intelligent products will not only control the production process actively but will also provide platforms for new services and innovative business models (De la Hoz-Rosales et al, 2019;Zemlickienė & Turskis, 2020). Also solving the present shortfall of the skilled labour will be possible, for example, by applying intelligent aid schemes in order to help old hands at their work, what will extend their working life.…”

Establishing a Combined Forecasting Model: A Case Study on the Logistic Demand of Nanjing’s Green Tea Industry in China

“…Multi-property decision-making primarily involves calculating an optimal plan through evaluating the relative importance of the properties (Zhuang et al, 2019;Zemlickienė & Turskis, 2020;Chao & Peng, 2020;Mahmoudi et al, 2020). This method is appropriate for a limited number of plan options that are typically discrete and already known.…”

A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Synthesis Method to Determine the Most Effective Option for Modernising a Public Building

“…A more detailed analysis of the development of the construction economy shows that in the 21st century, property management has shifted from near-exceptional growth and construction consumption to critical types of sustainability, namely economic growth, social development, and environmental protection (Jia et al, 2019;Zou et al 2017). Modern and responsible leaders are looking for practical, innovative, and at the same time, sustainable solutions for new initiatives and projects (Zemlickienė & Turskis, 2020;Nazarko & Mel-nikas, 2019;Winkowski, 2019). In today's world, plans to be implemented in one country affect plans and projects to be implemented in other countries.…”
