In a nutshell
Strategic opportunities are often found in unfamiliar territories, outside of your daily sphere. Our research into successful business models is an innovative service centered around making the right selections of the best models to inspire you, primarily in concealed areas and for the purpose of forging new strategic collaborations. Our research can include, for example, structures of disruptive/successful value chains, subtle value propositions that will lock in long-term customers, market penetration strategies that will capture new customer segments, and more. Our research doesn’t just remain as a shelved collection of recommendations – at the end of every research project, a strategic discussion format takes place to help actualize the insights. Research timeframes are about 4-6 weeks.
