Technology Marketing: A New Core Competence of Technology-Based Enterprises

Jean-Philippe Escher and Hugo Tschirky

from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Even in the area of technology, firms are increasingly contracting in from external sources, or contracting out their own work to third parties. This involves the areas of licensing, R&D cooperation, production and OEM briefs and commerce in technologically demanding components and part-products. The activities, which we call, ‘Technology Marketing’, depend on new processes and concepts. Why? Because known marketing methods do not sufficiently address the unique knowledge-defined nature of technologies. This chapter seeks to answer the questions: What new tasks does technology marketing embody, how should technology marketing be organized and to what extent is top management involved in technology marketing tasks?
