A Foundational Resource that many startups overlook.

Very interesting! I'm currently finishing my masters degree, and writing my thesis on Technology Roadmapping. Normally, roadmapping is a pretty complex business, and in the academic literature surrounding the concept, smaller companies are often left out of the equation due to the fact that the framework is pretty complex, and smaller companies/startups often are ressourcescarce. I don't have the time to read and elaborate on my points right now, as I'm soon to turn in my thesis, and devoting a lot of time for that. I would, however, like to add, that roadmapping seems like an underapreciated concept, from which specially smaller companies could benefit. Very excited to see this getting some upvotes and attention. Might I also add that if you're looking to investigate what roadmapping is, and want more perspectives on the matter, look up Robert Phaal and his T-Plan-model. He is also author of the largest current roadmapping-literature collection, which can be found as a PDF via Cambridge Universities website. Here's a link: http://www.ifm.eng.cam.ac.uk/upl...
