Making The Future Reports
TRN's Making The Future Report keeps
scientists, engineers, investors, entrepreneurs, IT and corporate decision makers, and
policymakers up to date about technologies like nanotechnology, computer interfaces,
data storage, molecular electronics, robotics, DNA computing, carbon nanotubes and quantum
computing — technologies poised to make and break business ventures, affect day-to-day life,
and shape tomorrow's society.
The reports tell readers who to watch and point out key developments to look for as
tomorrow's cutting-edge technologies move forward.
Each report examines the current state of a developing technology, organizes key issues
and puts them in context, succinctly explains how the technology works, lists key researchers
and development possibilities, and presents a tour of recent developments that includes a
bundle of key stories from TRN.
Each 20- to 40-page package includes an executive summary, a 1,500- to 3,000-word main
report that organizes key issues and puts them in context; a 500- to 1,500-word sidebar
that succinctly explains how the technology works; a list of 15 to 25 key corporate,
university, and government researchers to watch; a list of 10 to 20 key development
possibilities to look for; and a tour of recent developments that includes a bundle
of key stories from TRN.
