Narrator: Businesses that build
or participate in digital ecosystems grow faster,
are more innovative and resilient in crisis.
So companies today need to understand how to compete in
and with these fluid collaboration networks.
But how do you partner across different industries
and regions to build new products?
How do you capture value for all participants,
and share the value within the ecosystem?
How do you align the strategic interests
of many participants, and steer a fluid network of partners?
These are all critical questions.
That's why at BCG we've created
the Digital Ecosystems Accelerator.
The Digital Ecosystems Accelerator is a tool
companies can use to assess their strategic maturity,
and how ready they are to build
or join a fluid collaboration network.
It also benchmarks your company's
digital ecosystem capabilities,
and potential against your competitors,
with data gathered from a large number of companies
across all industries and revenue sizes.
The Digital Ecosystem Accelerator
assesses a company's maturity
by helping it answer three questions.
Why should I engage in digital ecosystems?
What do I want to achieve?
And am I ready to build or participate
in digital ecosystem business models?
In today's world of rapidly emerging digital technologies
and innovative business models, two things seem certain.
First, digital ecosystem business models
are going to play an outsized role
in many consumer and B2B sectors.
Second, most companies are not prepared for this transition.
The Digital Ecosystem Accelerator is a tool
for rapid check-up and assessment,
supported by a growing database of information
about digital ecosystems activity
in virtually every major industry, region and marketplace.
