• {{focus_areas}}: Specific technology domains to explore (e.g., AI, blockchain, renewable energy).
• {{evaluation_criteria}}: Factors to weigh (e.g., maturity, cost, integration difficulty, competitive landscape).

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing context before starting.
2. Scan known technologies, startups, and research within the focus areas.
3. For each candidate, evaluate its relevance against the business goals and evaluation criteria.
4. Rank the top opportunities and provide a brief rationale for each.

Output format A structured report listing 3–5 technologies/startups with: description, potential benefits, risks, and a recommendation priority (High/Medium/Low).

• Clearly label speculative projections or estimated timelines.
• Stay within the stated focus areas unless otherwise requested.
