This paper describes the Ecosystem for Niche Technology Innovation (ENTI). The ENTI has been optimized for innovation of global technologies in regions with limited resources and lack of world-class technologies. Therefore, the ENTI has been devised foreconomicallyless advanced regions where existing core competency and critical mass of technology are insufficient to support global technologies. This comprehensive, three-stage ecosystem has been devised for discovering and creating effective technology niches, or simply, finding successful product solutions within technology niches as well as bringing niche products to the global market. ENTI has a potential to create unique cluster structures emulating new niches based on both competency and technology synergies.
