Abstract (englisch):

Research institutes and universities play a crucial role in developing and commercializing new
technologies, providing researchers with opportunities to leverage their scientific developments for
innovation. However, several obstacles, such as technological uncertainty, market dynamics, and
researchers' lack of entrepreneurial awareness, impede commercialization. In the early stage,
specifically the Technology Application Selection (TAS) phase, where the decisions made significantly
influence later success or failure, multiple challenges prevail. Thus, it is essential to navigate through
this phase systematically.
This research project aims to address critical gaps in selecting technology applications. The TAS
Framework developed in this dissertation consists of five canvases, each designed to support specific
objectives to reach the overall goal. It provides researchers and innovators with a systematic approach
to identify and select promising technology applications. The framework facilitates informed decision-
making during the fuzzy front-end phase by promoting a comprehensive understanding, the systematic
exploration of alternative ideas, evaluation, alignment of the idea with the problem and customer, and a
