Technical Watch
Monitoring of scientific and technical documents such as patents or non-patent literature can prove very useful in various situations:
It makes it possible to regularly monitor information relating to a product, a process, a scientific field or even to competitors.
It is thus easy to identify new directions, innovations, emerging trends in a field, new competitors or even future partners.
