碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 科技管理研究所 === 98 === This thesis reports on a portfolio analysis for the strategic development for Taiwan’s algae-based biomass industry. This thesis reports on developing a strategic assessment of the algae-based biomass industry, using a portfolio model to assess competitive and strategic requirements. The portfolio model entails a two-dimensional analysis, containing technology life cycle (vertical axis) and the industrial value chain (horizontal axis). Three research methods used for data collection are literature review, expert interview, and general survey. While industrial portfolio results reveal the strategic positions and future direction of industrial development, this research also systemizes the industrial innovation requirements and corresponding policy instruments for future strategic developments. Not only does it provide a clear understanding of policy direction, it also suggests the strategic resource allocation of the industry. Future analysis leads to a conclusion that the most critical categories of policy instruments are“Full support to national innovation systems”, “Government policies in support of industrial innovation”, “Technology cooperation and integration”, “Infrastructure development”, “Cultivation of professional researchers” and “Financial support”.
