These capabilities and institutions were effective in developing a technological trajectory that enabled Brazil's PPI to achieve an internationally leading position in this industry; however, new capabilities and institutional arrangements are needed to support Brazil's PPI firms' incipient diversification and to mitigate self-reinforcement.
As distinguished by Benner and Tushman (2002), exploitative innovation builds on an existing technology trajectory, while explorative innovation involves a shift to a different technological trajectory.
"The endpoint of this technological trajectory is obvious: autonomous weapons will become the Kalashnikovs of tomorrow.
Incremental innovations build on existing knowledge, follow a well-understood technological trajectory, and typically entail limited risk.
This paper investigates how standards shape the emerging M2M/IoT technological trajectory and influence convergence in terms of technological importance and diversity.
However, a de alio entrant can leverage complementary assets to enter along a new technological trajectory, and then develop appropriability.
As determinants of technological effort, we look at the technological regimes of the industries, such as cumulativeness of technical advances, fluidity (predictability) of technological trajectory, and the properties of knowledge base.
It has been said that a nation's technological trajectory over the years has been determined by its geography and existing infrastructure in geospace.
Leaving the complement in a separate firm risks losing control of the technological trajectory (Chesbrough and Teece 1996).
And that our technological trajectory and momentum is all bound up with spiritual and religious trends and shifts.
Special emphasis should be placed on the research and development phases of the relevant technological trajectory (design process, ethics review, audit controls, etc.).
