New Strategic Thinking Required in Promoting Innovation of Disruptive Technology

Many countries, both technology-advanced ones and those that are developing, have been paying close attentions to new technologies potentially about to be disruptive, and forecasting disruptive technologies and their possible impacts on societies. This paper reviewed the inductive studies of disruptive technologies, and the analysis of the features and potential advantages of converging and integrated thinking used in technology management in terms of allocation of national resources of science and technology. The conclusion is that novel sciences and disruptive technologies are more likely to be produced through multi-disciplinary and integrated basic researches.
