My part: industry and market around this technology.

1-Explain the industry surrounding the technology:

a. Think of every aspect of an industry when you think about the industry based on a given technology.

b. If it seems likely that the technology cuts across multiple industries – highlight all such industries and explain the effects in your presentation?

c. Highlight the important players – including individual firms, regulatory agencies, governments, not-for-profits –in sufficient detail. The details for the role of the players would involve financial status, competitive strengths, market positions, and power or influence to shape the technology and the industry among other factors.

2- Explain the future paths for the technology and the related industry/industries in sufficient detail and in a persuasive manner.

a. Try to cover all likely evolutionary paths that the technology might take.

b. Support your conjectures about the future of technology or the industry using adequate examples/graphs/figure/numbers from reliable sources.

c. Consider alternative technologies, uses, and broader socio-economic scenarios that could diminish the growth of the technology or spur the growth of substitute technologies.
