Decision Support System in the Area of Generating Innovative Research Projects of the Future

The paper presents examples of attempts undertaken by scholars and practitioners to combine the foresight methodology with other tools aimed at supporting the decision-making processes. Against this background, the paper describes the author's proposal of a system combining the foresight methodology, technology assessment, and intellectual capital measurement. The system is aimed at generating research projects of the future, characterised by a high innovativeness level and a significant commercial potential, to be executed at R&D organisations and at enterprises, for which a necessary potential is available.
