Özet:

 

The new age is characterized by a knowledge based economy and rapid
 technological changes. In this complex environment, technology intelligence (TI)  and forecasting the future technologies are important for being proactive against  the rapid technological changes and generating new innovations. TI is a vital  process to sustain the firm`s competitiveness. This paper examines the technology  intelligence process in scope of Turkish technopark firms. The empirical data was  obtained from 136 technopark firms and evaluated by the context of TI model  synthesized by the researchers based on the literature. According to the results it  is determined that, TI mechanisms of the technopark firms are unstructured and  technopark firm’s don’t allocate enough resources for TI, they use the  environments that can be easily reached such as internet and periodical  magazines, and analyze the data about technology by using heuristic methods  mostly. This could be related to characteristics of the technopark firms such as  being micro size and owner-manager, insufficient personnel and financial sources  etc. Because in developing countries like Turkey most of the firms are SMEs, a  further research might be useful to develop a specialized TI model for SMEs.
