DEEP TECH INNOVATION

Deep Tech is having profound impact on segments including autonomous systems, robotics, smart home/cities, medical devices, clean tech, energy efficiency and many more developing or emerging application areas. We define Deep Tech as technology that is based on tangible engineering innovation or scientific advances and discoveries. Deep Tech is often set apart by its profound enabling power, the differentiation it can create, and its potential to catalyze change. Deep Tech companies often possess fundamental and defensible engineering innovations that distinguish them from those companies that are focused on the incremental refinement or delivery of standardized technologies or only use business model innovation to create opportunities.Deep Tech can span across many technological areas and can impact diverse applications. On the technological front, these can include processing and computing architecture innovations, advances in semiconductors and electronic systems, power electronics, vision and speech algorithms and techniques, artificial intelligence and machine learning and more.

 

We advise Chief Technology Officers - CTO's - and Chief Innovation Officers - CIO's -  on their strategic decisions regarding the  kick-off, set-up and later improvements on how to build innovation excellence. Our services adapt easily to structure the innovation process from the leadership team to the Lab. What we prefer to do is to bring the leadership team to the lab and start or re-start to think about innovation. EmTDLab uses an integrated approach to help clients set-up, improve & expand their R&D activities in order to reinforce competitive advantage. We work with Clients to assess the effectiveness of their current R&D capabilities and to highlight the areas where critical processes, organizational or system challenges are identified. Our services range from a Quick Diagnostic to an end-to-end R&D Effectiveness Program. We cover all aspects of Innovation from the Lab Floor to Executive Scientific Management. We position the entire organization for R&D performance improvement, using process-driven approach and change-management techniques.
