Welcome to TLI

Bridging the gap between business and engineering

For high-tech companies, business success is all about mastering the gray zone – that area of the company where business, engineering, science, and technologies converge.  TLI programs and activities help high-tech professionals, managers, and leaders grow their businesses by showing them ways to explore and maximize growth in the gray zone. 

TLI’s skill set includes technology foresight and forecasting, innovation, strategic management of technology, new product and business development, science and technology policy, and intellectual property.  With an eye on helping high-tech firms maximize their growth potential, TLI shows high-tech companies how to move more adeptly within the gray zone by exploring ways to

• map technology strategies
• maximize intellectual property assets
• marshal technologies
• stimulate innovation
• commercialize ideas

We take an in-depth, integrated approach that works in the relentless world of high-tech business.  Check us out. If you’re a pacesetter within the high-tech community, you’ll find that TLI has programs, activities, and services for your gray-zone challenges.

The Cyber Security Summit seeks to change the paradigm of how we look at digital space and security, focusing on clarifying the impact that cyber security has on our nation's government and business operations. The Summit mission is to establish a multi-stakeholder consortium that brings together industry, government, and academic interests in an effort to improve the state of cyber security on both a domestic and international level.
