Understanding the Real Value of Technology! 
Technology does not produce any return. It only generates a performance change: in processes, 
materials, functionality, utility of a product/service. This contribute is the productivity of the technology. 
It is not the technology that creates value but the impact of performance changes on one or more 
substantial elements of the business model.

overall profit in a disproportionate way. 
Specialists are more profitable for a number 
of reasons: higher quality, better image, 
lower cost, and so on. 
Small business units maximize customer 
proximity and facilitate accountability for 
results.

Despite the great effort and success of many companies to transform innovation in a “process 
discipline”, there is still a lot of people who patronize the “lone inventor” theory of innovation. 
Facts are witnessing that a winning factor for succeding with innovation is to adopt the same logic of 
Venture Capitalist: work selectively with big numbers to find great ideas and businesses. 
Several thousands 
!100 
Investments: !10 
Another key element is that success is not achieved through increased innovation 
budgets. In fact this can just increase the risk to to finance marginal opportunities. 
Success is the result of building a portfolio of extraordinary opportunies selected 
on the base of their profit potential.

Two Value Threads of Innovation! 
The innovation process is a virtuous combination of two asynchronous answers to “What is 
needed?” and “What we have?” 
Radical 
Innovation 
Margin 
Cost 
Value 
Sustaining 
Innovation 
Technology-Driven 
Interest 
Products 
Customer- 
Defined 
Solutions 
Technology Thread 
The vertical thread (Development 
Factory) works as a non-stop flow and 
controls the functions of product platform 
planning and of modularization/ 
standardization of components (used 
either on a stand-alone basis either as 
parts of more complex systems). 
Strategic Aim: Radical Innovation 
Customer Thread 
The horizontal thread (Customer Lab) 
works as an intermittent flow and controls 
the functions of customer need 
management and of product/system 
requirement development 
Strategic Aim: Sustaining Innovation 
Here we exploit the value 
of customer knowledge to find 
more advanced solutions... 
V = B – 
– C = M 
Benefit 
Value 
Price 
Because today’s customer 
preferences have no inherent 
predictive value for tomorrow’s 
markets, it is simply not savvy 
enough to rely to build future 
strategies on current customer 
preferences 
1.!Customer 
Lab 
Here we explore 
and apply new or 
unproven technologies... 
2. Innovation

Customer Labs – Intense Predictive Analytics on Future Needs ! 
‘Industries don’t “evolve”. Instead, firms eager to overturn the present industry order challenge “accepted practices”, 
redraw segment boundaries, set new price-performance expectations, and reinvent the product or service concept.’

10. Realizzazione di un knowledge webinar 
•! Focus: Accelerating knowledge and technology 
awareness of advanced technology offering 
regarding ABCD platform. 
•! Structure: 
•! Identification of the 15 most attractive companies 
for LMNO, on the basis of the research developed 
•! Preparation of a common knowledge framework for 
participants, highlighting the prioritized interest and 
needs of LMNO in the business 
•! Detailed definition of a detailed roadmap of the 
event – structured on a before-during-after rationale – 
targeted to enhance the effectiveness of the event 
•! Timeline: 2 hours, 15:00 to 17:00 CET, in order to 
assure an optimized coverage from the US 
attendees. 
•! 5-1-0 Rule of the game 
- Five minutes presentation by an individual, with a bell used to keep presenters on schedule 
- One page of a slide or a poster to provide visual support, if needed 
- Zero questions or discussion during the presentations 
After the presentations, the ABCD participants will be asked to vote the most valuable presentations. 
•! Follow-up: After the internal selection, questions and additional information requests will be sent to the 
presenters. The entire process will be managed by a small project team during the 
Homework phase.
