6. Analyze

Supporting future scenarios with data and theory

Once the technologies are selected and described, it is time to start assessing them. At Envisioning, we have two analysis premises:

• In-house, which uses our database

• Outsourced, which uses our survey tool.

In most cases, researchers and editors are responsible for in-house analysis, while personalized metrics are used by clients and partners through a survey tool. By default, all technologies from TDB (Technology Database) must be assessed through:

Metrics	Summary	Responsibility
Taxonomy	Defines the type of technology	Editors
TRL	Defines evolution stage	Researchers
SDG	Defines which parameters of the Sustainable Development Goals the technology achieves	Editors
Industry	Defines industries that use/could use the technology	Editors
Network	Creates relationships between technologies	Researchers/Editors
