Agenda 2020
Technology Portfolio Evaluation

 

In 2003, the Agenda 2020 technology portfolio was optimized to focus on six high value technology platforms. A seventh "enabling technology" platform, nanotechnology, has recently been added to the Agenda 2020 portfolio.

The evaluation of the Agenda 2020 portfolio demonstrates substantial potential value for both industry and society. Even if only 25% of Agenda 2020 goals are achieved in the next 5 to 7 years, the industry stands to benefit from an additional revenue flow of just under $9 billion. Substantial energy savings are possible, as well as reductions in environmental emissions and creation of new jobs.

In 2006, Agenda 2020 initiated a stage gate and portfolio review process with its key government partners. (more info)
