Applicable TRIZ Principles

Principle 15 – Dynamics: Adapt technology as regulations evolve.

Principle 23 – Feedback: Monitor regulatory developments continuously.

Principle 10 – Prior Action: Evaluate compliance before implementation.

Expected Outcome

Responsible innovation

Better regulatory alignment

Lower implementation risk

Improved governance

Sustainable digital transformation
