Due Diligence
The first of these important steps centers on the collection, review, interpretation, and summary of existing scientific data and literature. Through a thorough and comprehensive review of existing scientific publications as well as technical specifications of supporting technology, strong competitive intelligence can be gained toward the development and commercialization of new technologies.
Further, by reviewing available patent information as well as relevant clinical and medical literature a detailed picture of the general state of the field can be developed.
Additionally, this information will be most valuable in determining the potential need for the new technology, identifying target markets and potential competitors, as well as barriers to entry in these markets.
Taken together, a thorough survey of the scientific, technological and competitive landscape, or due diligence, is important not only in developing competitive intelligence but toward the development of strong strategic application plans.
