Patricia Le Crenn et al., « L’apport d’une démarche d’intelligence technologique pour l’identification de partenaires de recherche et d’innovation. Une illustration à partir de l’institut INRAE », Revue internationale d'intelligence économique, ID : 10670/1.c6iz8x
This article concerns the function of technology intelligence as a tool for identifying partners to support a research and innovation project. More precisely, we intend to show how the combination of regular outlook practices and one-time analysis of data can help an organization develop its ability to single out suitable partners outside its own skills. This feedback from practitioners specializing in technology intelligence is based on a concrete case conducted within the INRAE institute and is linked the field of plant phenotyping. Carried out over a period of 18 months, the study which concerned the field of phenotyping made it possible to identify around one hundred actors belonging to different activity sectors on which INRAE had little knowledge. Beyond their identification, actors were also positioned on the phenotyping technological value-chain.
