It is important to consider that in infrastructure R&I, the early stages of technology development will be driven by
a technology push. Later stages of technology readiness (TRL = 5 onwards) will be driven by the regulation pull and
to a much lesser extent the market pull associated with mass market consumer products. Therefore, it is important
to consider from the start, what critical actions are needed on developing and establishing regulations, standards.
These will be developed to match the needs from the R&I solution as it moves through the successive technology
readiness levels
