• We are at the frontier of the next technology revolution, as a cycle of particular TR last 40-60 years. They occur once or twice during the century.
• By the end of 2nd decade of XX century it is anticipated, that invention of quantum computers will reshape our society and economy, in general all the spheres of human activity. Four converging technologies are considered as driving forces for next TR.

We can look how publications and patents change recently according to certain technology. Patents and publications are two main domains of economic growth. Bibliometric analysis reflect rate of university inventions, while patent analysis is indicator of industrial activity.
State governments support and funding is also main indicator of excellence of technology.

Why is crucial Innovation
management in the period of technology

How to perform timely the Innovation?
Innovation is the term adopted from economy and is applied to every field from IT to medicine.It differs from Invention, which originates from science and technology. Innovation is ‘commercial introduction of something new’ in other words ‘successful implementation of new idea(s)’. Innovation may be radical or incremental.

• The Delphi methodThe Delphi method is a systematic, interactive forecasting method which relies on a panel of experts.
• The Delphi method has been an anticipatory thinking (futures) technique aimed at building an agreement, or consensus about an opinion or view, without necessarily having experts meet face to face.
• First was developed at the beginning of the cold war to forecast the impact of technology on warfare.
