Lux Introduces Tech Company Assessment Tool

Emerging technology specialist Lux Research has introduced an assessment tool to provide a reference for the evaluation of emerging technology companies.

Lux provides advice and on-going intelligence for emerging technologies markets, based on primary research. The new 'Lux Innovation Grid' has been developed to provide a visual snapshot of individual companies in a given technology area. It is based on three criteria - the strength and value of core technology; business execution; and maturity - as well as Lux Research's own 'Lux Take'.

Scoring is based on factual information collected in primary interviews and site visits, in addition to the firm's analysts' independent evaluation of the company on 10 different factors, and its market insights in each technology domain.

'The tool builds on our ongoing scouting of emerging technology markets,' explained Research Director Michael Holman. 'This framework gives our clients a more incisive tool to cut through the fog and quickly arrive at better decisions - whether they're corporations looking for partners or M&A targets, financiers identifying early market leaders, or start-ups seeking insight into the competition they face.'

With US offices in New York, Boston and San Francisco and additional operations based in Amsterdam and Dubai, the firm is online at www.luxresearchinc.com .
