In the past two years, the dye sensitized cell (DSC) market has come of age and has moved out of its R&D phase. The performance of DSCs is now comparable with amorphous silicon PV, but with much more potential than a-Si for performance improvements. DSC’s also offers an ability to be deployed on flexible substrates and perform under non-peak insolation.
This report provides an in-depth market analysis of recent developments in DSCs, examining the meaning of the latest products, strategies and technical developments. We identify how performance improvements are likely to help grow addressable markets for DSC and where these new markets are to be found. Specifically, we examine the potential for DSC in the BIPV sector and how DSC is likely to do in a world in which solar energy is not the hot topic that it was a few years ago.
The report also appraises the commercial significance of the developments that have taken place in the DSC over the past year; for example, attempts to reduce the cost of dyes and electrodes. And it also includes NanoMarkets’ assessments of the strategies of leading firms active in the DSC space. And, as always with NanoMarkets reports, this report also contains granular forecasts of DSC panel and materials shipments in volume and value terms.

Overview of the results of Spinverse's 2012 survey of Finnish CTOs. This presentation was first given at the CTO Forum in Espoo, Finland, on 13th January 2012.
The study was carried out by Spinverse with the support of Sitra, the Federation of Finnish Industries EK, and Technology Academy Finland.
Technology transfer involves applying technology developed for one purpose to a new use or user. It is important to choose the right technology - one that is not outdated, meets present and future demand, is cost effective and productive, and helps develop local skills. Models of technology transfer include licensing, science parks, hiring skilled employees, and technology transfer units. For inward technology transfer to be successful, organizations must be open to innovation adoption - from innovators and initiators to later adopters. The Intellectual Property Organization of Pakistan aims to integrate IP infrastructure to support achievement as an IP-based nation. Pakistan needs clear long-term policies to enhance technological capabilities through technology transfer and diffusion.

Professor Barry Lloyd Vercoe discussed three organizations that have fostered innovation through interdisciplinary research: the MIT Media Lab, One Laptop per Child, and the Echo Nest Corporation. He explained that innovation springs from the clash of cultures, disciplines, ways of thinking, and ways of doing things, with a high tolerance for failure. To foster innovation, he recommends creating an open research environment that maximizes connections across disciplines and encourages experimentation without prescriptive goals.

A guide to generating insight through research for product development
Research is the primary risk management tool you have in product development. It is also the biggest driver of insight and breakthrough ideas. The challenge many people face is doing it in a way that retains creativity and objectivity. Balancing the technical and human centred approaches can be a challenge but the results are worth it.
Understanding people’s needs and requirements is the key to unlocking insights, but is not enough on its own. It must be coupled with a broader understanding of the

This presentation sets out a practical approach to undertaking research for product development. It provides guiding principles for primary research and how to interpret information and create insights. Our approach has been developed from a range of other approaches and our own experiences. It provides a common approach that can be applied across all types of research.
John Gertsakis at the 2014 Innovation ForumLocus Research
This document discusses sustainability and innovation. It provides an overview of ecodesign strategies and principles for sustainable product development. Ecodesign aims to reduce environmental impacts across a product's lifecycle by taking environmental criteria into account during design. It encourages efficient design that uses fewer resources, cyclic design to enable continuous material cycling, safe design avoiding toxins, and communications design for informed consumer behavior. The document also outlines real-world outcomes of ecodesign including increased materials efficiency and designs for disassembly and recyclability. It stresses that sustainability can act as a catalyst for innovation in product design.
This document summarizes Rob Ford's presentation at the 2014 YIA Innovation Forum. Some of the key points discussed include the innovation journey of the Livestock Improvement Corporation, observations and learnings from developing technology solutions for the agriculture industry, and thoughts on how New Zealand can strengthen its technology economy and innovation culture. The presentation covered topics such as MINDA's ecosystem of animal genetics, health, and nutrition apps and devices, lessons learned in product development, and opportunities to promote innovation across sectors in New Zealand.

Chronic diseases account for most healthcare spending, but patients have little contact with doctors and poor disease understanding. A proposed solution is a mobile app that extends doctors' reach by enabling remote monitoring, motivates patients through peer support and tracking tools, and increases medication adherence. It connects individuals to experts and friends to help them achieve health goals. A case study showed a similar service improved medication adherence and engagement at lower costs than traditional care.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
