To extract semantic patterns from the large number of texts describing events, we use a rankvalidation procedure that is taken over from literature (Thorleuchter & Van den Poel, 2013a). the patterns are identified, and the cross-impacts between the technologies are calculated. The proposed approach calculates conditional cross impact probabilities by use of semantic semantic approach (LSI) for calculating the conditional probabilities from texts. We use matrix Vk to calculate the conditional cross impact probability of an event B The identified 10 technology areas lead to the calculation of 90 conditional cross impact In a case study the proposed approach is applied to identify conditional cross-impact probabilities 	./cache/work_a56n6qovhvgphchpkspltuwrni.pdf	./txt/work_a56n6qovhvgphchpkspltuwrni.txt
