KIC InnoEnergy Innovation Readiness Level (IRL tool®)

The Technology

Readiness Level

measures the maturity of

a given technology.

The IP Readiness

Level measures the

“freedom to operate” of

a given product/service.

The Market Readiness

Level measures the

maturity of a given need

in the market.

The Consumer

Readiness Level identifies

the level of knowledge

about the consumer and to

what extend affects the

product/service to this

consumer.

The Society Readiness

Level identifies the level

of knowledge about the

stakeholders’ interests

and concerns and to what

extend affects the

product/service to the

society.
