Abstract: This policy brief discusses the state of play in technology monitoring and assessment (TMA) in the US, China, and the EU, and how the EU could tailor such monitoring to its needs and interests. It first outlines the role of TMA in R&I and economic policy, then compares features of the EU, US, and Chinese TMA systems, and concludes by outlining methodologies and features of a coherent TMA system in the European Union. TMA plays a central role in enabling governments to respond swiftly to crises and rapid shifts in the global technological landscape.
