Core elements of Foresight in

About the Manchester Institute of
Innovation Research (PREST)
Our Research is broadly grouped into five key themes that reflect both
strengths of the Institute and areas of potential growth:
•
•
•
•
•
Technology strategy and innovation management, covering a wide
range of topics relating to R&D, innovation strategy, internationalisation
and tacit knowledge. There is particular interest in themes such as
innovation in defence and security and in medical innovation
Services and organisational innovation reflecting Manchester's
outstanding track record of research in this field. This covers a range of
topics including measurement, management and outsourcing
Science, innovation policy and strategic intelligence draws on the
extensive and long-standing reputation of Manchester in this field and
developments in key areas such as foresight and evaluation of
technology programmes
Innovation and sustainability is a rapidly growing area of activity
which covers environmental management, sustainable consumption
and recycling. There is close collaboration with colleagues at the
Tyndall Centre in Manchester
Innovation, innovation systems and economic development
covering familiar issues such as innovation and national and regional
development as well as important emerging themes such as innovation
as a sustainable route out of poverty in developing economies.
Manchester has a particularly outstanding record in the understanding
of the dynamics of innovation through evolutionary approaches.
Foresight has emerged as a key
instrument for the development
and implementation of research
and innovation policy.
The main focus of activity has
been at national level
as governments have sought to:
• set priorities;
• build networks between science
and industry;
• change the administrative
culture & research systems and;
• encompass structured debates
with wider participation leading
to the creation of common
visions.

What is foresight?
• Broadly speaking…
• Foresight is not about:
– forecasting by experts
Pro.
• Foresight is more about:
– trandisciplinarity
– long term thinking
F
– engagement with decision-makers
Pol.
Par.
– drawing upon wide networks of expertise
– creating new action networks
– extending the breadth and depth of the knowledge base for decisionmaking

Why?
Manchester
Institute of
Innovation
Research
Rationale 1: Directing or prioritising investment
in STI (Setting general research directions by
identifying previously unknown opportunities)
• Informing funding and investment priorities, including
direct prioritisation exercises;
• Eliciting the research and innovation agenda within a
previously defined field;
• Reorienting the science and innovation system to match
national needs, particularly in the case of transition
economies;
• Helping to benchmark the national science and
innovation system in terms of areas of strength and
weakness, and to identify competitive threats and
collaborative opportunities;
• Raising the profile of science and innovation in
government as means of attracting investment.
Manchester
Institute of
Innovation
Research
Rationale 2: Building new networks and
linkages around a common vision
• Building networks and strengthening
communities around shared problems
(especially where work on these problems has
been compartmentalised and is lacking a
common language);
• Building trust between participants unused to
working together;
• Aiding collaboration across administrative and
epistemic boundaries;
• Highlighting interdisciplinary opportunities.
Manchester
Institute of
Innovation
Research
Rationale 3: Extending the breadth of
knowledge and visions in relation to the future
• Increasing understanding and changing
mindsets, especially about future opportunities
and challenges;
• Providing anticipatory intelligence to system
actors as to the main directions, agents, and
rapidity of change;
• Building visions of the future that can help
actors recognise more or less desirable paths
of development and the choices that help
determine these.
Manchester
Institute of
Innovation
Research
Rationale 4: Bringing new actors into the
strategic debate
• Increasing the number and involvement of
system actors in decision-making, both to
access a wider pool of knowledge and to
achieve more democratic legitimacy in the
policy process;
• Extending the range of types of actor
participating in decision-making relating to
science, technology and innovation issues.
Manchester
Institute of
Innovation
Research
Rationale 5: Improving policy-making and
strategy formation in areas where science and
innovation play a significant role
• Informing policy and public debates in these
areas;
• Improve policy implementation by enabling
informed “buy-in” to decision-making
processes (for example, so that participants in
foresight activities are able to use the
understanding acquired here to argue the case
for change, and to bring it to bear in more
specialised areas than the Programme as a
whole has been able to).

Step 5: evaluating
Step 4: shaping the future through
strategic planning
Step 3: generating (new) knowledge through the
exploration, analysis and anticipation of possible futures
R. Popper (2008)
Step 2: mobilising and engaging key stakeholders
Step 1: scanning and understanding major S&T developments, trends and issues
Meta principles of foresight
1. Contextualised
Foresight needs to be rooted in the context within which it is to be
implemented be it national, regional, local, corporate, organisational;
2. Credible
The robustness of the evidence and the reputation of those presenting and
validating it should be such that results are treated as credible;
3. Diversed
Foresight must keep an ear open to unpopular views and not rush to a
consensus; relevant (and seemingly less relevant) stakeholders should be
engaged wherever possible, either in the exercise itself or in pre- and postforesight activities;
4. Systematic
A foresight exercise should develop and follow a systematic approach which
can easily be replicated. Methods should as far as possible allow
comparisons / benchmarking and yield reproducible results;
5. Far-sighted
There is little point to foresight which does not include a creative element that
is explicitly future-oriented and moves beyond mere zeitgeist;
Source: Georghiou, Cassingena, Keenan, Miles and Popper (2008) The Handbook of Technology Foresight
Meta principles of foresight
6.
Transparent
The objectives of an exercise should be clear to all; the design of the
process, the sources of information and the means used to analyse data
should all be available to those expected to participate and make use of the
results;
7.
Embedded
Foresight’s impact endures where a culture for foresight is able to spread;
8.
Engaged
The commitment of those capable of acting upon the results should be
secured in advance;
9.
Efficient
In its use of public (or private funds) foresight should be carried out with
due economy and efficiency but be adequately resourced to be effective;
10. Adaptive
Foresight should be adaptive, drawing upon lessons from previous and
current activity to meet evolving demands.

Foresight outlook
– In the 1980s Mexico led the first Latin initiative to promote the
integration of foresight efforts in many countries, the so-called
Technological Prospective for Latin America (TEPLA), which helped to
translate selected European foresight experiences into Spanish.
– In 1990s the country showed a decline in regional leadership
– Since 2000 foresight work has begun to recover.
– Current activities are mainly related to entrepreneurial foresight and
efforts of public institutions focused on education, science and
technology.
– There is also a Mexican node of the Millennium Project, a chapter of the
World Futures Society (WFS) and an online journal for prospective
studies which has provided a space for disseminating experiences in
Spanish
– capacity-building and teaching programmes
– Whilst Mexico has a long tradition in forecasting and futures research, it
has yet to organise a fully-fledged national foresight programme.
