Identify pacemaker technologies for your company → else will be a problem in the future → tool to use research. Then you have your difference makers the key technologies which you can develop by acquiring personal/experts.
Also tools like the hype cycle and TRL and experimenting

Describe the technological life cycle of solar panels.
Imagine you are a technology manager responsible for choosing the right technologies for future and present innovations. Discuss on which technologies you should focus regarding the technology life cycle.
The others can be licensed or already common sense

Novel idea never seen before, commercial potentials and not obvious
Also only in USA
In Europe may be possible if combined w/ hardware 🤷
