About Siemens RIE
The Siemens RIE Munich (managed by TUM International) is a unique ecosystem in which today's challenges are addressed collaboratively with future technologies. In collaboration with internal and external stakeholders, including universities, research institutes, partners from industry, startups, and government agencies, TUMint and Siemens are developing solutions to these challenges.
The Siemens RIE Munich combines the research excellence of a wide range of stakeholders and relies on a broad, regional and at the same time global network. In addition to traditional contract research, the RIE works closely with stakeholders in innovation projects and publicly funded research consortia and explores numerous other individual cooperation formats.
Project description
The objective is a broad-based trend and technology search in the field of foresight: what are the emerging topics and technologies the next 10 years.
🎯 Project goals
Step 1: Broad trend and technology research
- Trend and technology research e.g. screening of possible sources (e.g. Techblocks, Think Tanks, Uni Research, Social Media, World Economic Forum etc.) - but also other approaches are welcome - there are no limits to the possibilities
- Structuring into different clusters e.g. Digital Techs, Green Techs, Society
- Each trend/technology is described in a one-pager - what are the drivers/blockers (with first proof points) and what is the impact on industry/infrastructure/society?
- Presentation and research paper summarizing technologies, their short-/mid-/long-term effects in and giving strategic recommendations
Step 2: Discussion of the results & impact in a workshop
- Depending on the results and the course of the project a detailed examination of some identified trends afterwards is conceivable
