Step 1: Develop future visions

  • Key stakeholders were interviewed in order to determine possible Focus Themes for the foresight exercise.
  • A Future Workshop was organized. The objective was to determine a set of Focus Themes from the data collected during the interviews. The participants were decision-makers and futurists. Five Focus Themes were identified:
    • Information Society Technologies
    • Competitiveness through Innovation
    • Quality of Life
    • Social and Cultural Dynamics
    • Energy and Environment
  • An online survey was used in order to collect data on possible Directions for Investigation within each Focus Theme.
  • The data were clustered, and initial lists of possible Directions for Investigation were produced for each Focus Theme.
