In this seminar, Yves Pigneur outlines what is required from leaders and organizations to survive and thrive in today’s world.

He will introduce a new concept that helps companies visualize if they are ready for the future or if they should fear disruption. He will also briefly outline Business Model Patterns that allow established companies and startups to compete on better business models rather than just compete on new products, technologies, and price.
