Business model development & innovation is a process that deliberately changes the core elements of a firm and its business logic to sustain or create a thriving business. Innovative business models can reshape industries, change the rules of the game and drive tremendous growth. A better business model often will beat a better idea, product or service.
We have been developing a systematic method for business model development & innovation based on in-depth business research, which has been validated in challenging projects inside and outside of SAP.
