EXECUTIVE COURSE

Foresight & Beyond – Foresight, prioritization and decision support

The course is offered annually (or in-company to be scheduled) to managers of public and private organizations, academics and futurists. We focus on methodological trends, main techniques and tools used in future studies, presenting cases and developing practical activities. We call it Foresight and Beyond because the content adds prioritization and decision support techniques applied to Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) activities. Participants must prepare during the course a prospective study setup based on a step-by-step template.
