much data to process and not enough time Experts Risk of bias A quicker way to get to answers than searching manually Shows you where the herd is going but the herd is often wrong Trend Monitoring CURRENT SOLUTIONS NO LONGER WORK
Blind Spots AI technology scouting Instant overview of all emerging technologies in your area See which tech works in a specific area Spot winners early Summarized in actionable insight AI technology evaluation Forecasting Deep dives & Monitoring Compare and analyze technologies using AI, reducing months of work to minutes Predict which emerging technologies will dominate and when Competitive intelligence, partnering options, AI patent analysis & more
questions, faster answers Bye-bye bias Winning technologies show clear and measurable signals with our models. Forget about trendwatching, we can tell you what the data means. Scouting and evaluating technologies can take months with traditional approaches, GetFocus can do it in minutes. Let the herd walk o the cli by itself, we give you objective and quantitative insights that enable beer decisions. 1 2 3
do some technologies improve faster than others? • Why do some disrupt and others are just hyped without result? • Can we predict which technologies will win?

patents 2. Describes virtually all tech progress globally 3. Extremely standardized (basically the only thing we agree on globally) 4. Perfect for AI processing Why Patents?
Cycle Time: How many years did it take to create a new generation of technology? “How often do I take steps” “How big are my steps” Knowledge Flow: How much of a step forward did this invention represent? Newer invention improving over us 2023 THERE ARE 2 METRICS THAT PREDICT TECH IMPROVEMENT
PREDICT IMPROVEMENT RATES Technologies that improve fast have a low cycle time and high knowledge flow. They take quick big steps. Technologies that improve slow have a high cycle time and low knowledge flow. They take slow small steps.

faster than fuel cells and combustion engines since their invention. Technology improvement rates are like interest on a bank account, the highest rate wins.
faster than silver halide photo film since the 70's. CMOS has been improving faster than CCD since the 90's. Technology improvement rates are like interest on a bank account, the highest rate wins.
We can objectively and accurately measure how fast any technology is improving 3 - We can see the technological future before it happens 4 - This means making beer investment decisions, and outperforming competitors that do not have forecasting capabilities SUMMING UP
has 20 designated strategically important technologies We help them scout all competing technologies in each area, understand the global landscape, and forecast which tech will win. Secure future supply chains We help the US government understand which supply chains must be secured now to stay competitive in the future. Think ahead about geopolitical consequences If technology X becomes dominant, what will the consequences be? Partly determine the national tech strategy The US' national technology strategy is partly determined with our forecasts.
Recki Benckiser SVP R&D Performance materials – BASF The project The project The outcome The outcome Created insights for an R&D strategy on reducing low-grade inflammation in humans through advanced nutritional interventions. How to sort and depolymerize mixed automotive plastic waste that has been shredded together. Clearly established which emerging technologies in low-grade inflammation management will disrupt Recki’s business in the future when no change is made. Found 1 key disruptive technology in the sorting of automotive plastic shredded waste and 1 key long-term disruptive technology for depolymerization that can disrupt BASF’s business if no action is taken. “GetFocus represents the next generation of insight creation and management for R&D decision making" “GetFocus helps us go from broad strategic questions to concrete answers in very lile time"
