Strategizing for 2026 and Beyond, Part 1: Positioning and Goal Setting

As summer winds down, it’s time to prepare your innovation agenda for the coming year. What should your team focus on in 2026? At Lux, we’re also defining our research priorities for next year. We follow the Lux Research innovation strategy process to ensure we identify the most relevant developments and address them effectively. We begin by pinpointing the most urgent, high-impact trends — translating them into clear, actionable goals. 

In this webinar, we’ll walk you through our strategy process, offering a framework for your own planning and sharing the emerging trends and weak signals we’ve identified for 2026 and beyond. 

This is Part 1 of a two-part series. It focuses on setting priorities and defining key performance metrics for the year ahead. Part 2, coming in October, will cover the projects, investments, and initiatives needed to achieve your 2026 goals.
