The main purpose of the paper is to present the rationale, the methodological details and a practical example of the application of the enhanced SWOT analysis in the context of technological foresight. The authors take into account and propose an innovative extension of SWOT analysis by an additional dimension (expanding known in the literature SWOT analysis model that includes three criteria of factor division: occurrence in time, source of origin and nature of influence): the assessment of factor significance in two time perspectives: the current state and the hypothetical horizon. As a result, a thirty-two-field SWOT diagram is obtained. The paper also presents the practical implications of the proposed methodology by offering a case study.
