About

The Foundations of Technology Roadmapping course offered by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) provides an overview of Technology Roadmapping through the review of key concepts, case studies, and interactive exercises.

Overview

What you will study

Technology is drastically reshaping the business world. And in this world marked by tight competition, organizations are required to innovate and develop at the speed of light to remain ahead.

Technology roadmapping is a core function in technology management aimed at optimizing the R&D portfolio of advanced organizations by mapping future product and service strategy against the existing knowledge, capabilities and intellectual property (IP) portfolio of the firm. The framework presented in the Foundations of Technology Roadmapping course offered by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was implemented on a $1 billion class R&D portfolio at Airbus, which has since ascended to become the number one manufacturer of civil aircraft in the world.

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • Learn to quantify technological progress over time using relevant figures of merit (FOMs).
  • Perform a search for technologies using a systematic scouting approach and comprehensive intellectual property (IP) search.
  • Learn to map one or more technologies to a target product and/or service of your choice and set realistic FOM-based targets.
  • Understand how to quantify the financial and societal value of a technology in its context.
  • You will be ready to shape the R&D Strategy and portfolio of an organization based on a set of technology roadmaps and by creating an effective environment for R&D project execution.
