Technology Seekers

Who are Tech Seekers

In the ASSETs context, we coined and use the term 'Tech Seeker' to define those personnel in major and mid-sized corporations and (increasingly in) Mission Agencies:

  • having the job description of, and professional responsibility for, identifying external sources of technology relevant to meeting the defined needs of that corporation
  • AND, importantly, having either the authority directly and/or access to the resources required to institute appropriate working arrangements with qualified small firms.
