In Other Words…
¨ Technology buys entry to a market, if it:
1. Strikes from ambush (surprise)
2. Attacks an unperceived/undefended position
3. At lower cost
¨ But it doesn’t keep you there!
Continued evolution, repackaging, and repositioning
are required for each new market segment
Yesterday’s segment is tomorrow’s road kill
Reputation takes a long time to catch up with you
