00:00:07.930 --> 00:00:11.760
or participate in digital ecosystems grow faster,

3
00:00:11.760 --> 00:00:15.030
are more innovative and resilient in crisis.

4
00:00:15.030 --> 00:00:18.790
So companies today need to understand how to compete in

5
00:00:18.790 --> 00:00:22.150
and with these fluid collaboration networks.

6
00:00:22.150 --> 00:00:24.520
But how do you partner across different industries

7
00:00:24.520 --> 00:00:27.530
and regions to build new products?

8
00:00:27.530 --> 00:00:30.240
How do you capture value for all participants,

9
00:00:30.240 --> 00:00:33.330
and share the value within the ecosystem?

10
00:00:33.330 --> 00:00:35.580
How do you align the strategic interests

11
00:00:35.580 --> 00:00:39.563
of many participants, and steer a fluid network of partners?

12
00:00:40.430 --> 00:00:42.600
These are all critical questions.

13
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.250
That's why at BCG we've created

14
00:00:45.250 --> 00:00:48.570
the Digital Ecosystems Accelerator.

15
00:00:48.570 --> 00:00:51.540
The Digital Ecosystems Accelerator is a tool

16
00:00:51.540 --> 00:00:55.090
companies can use to assess their strategic maturity,

17
00:00:55.090 --> 00:00:56.750
and how ready they are to build

18
00:00:56.750 --> 00:00:59.730
or join a fluid collaboration network.

19
00:00:59.730 --> 00:01:01.660
It also benchmarks your company's

20
00:01:01.660 --> 00:01:03.980
digital ecosystem capabilities,

21
00:01:03.980 --> 00:01:06.600
and potential against your competitors,

22
00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:09.350
with data gathered from a large number of companies

23
00:01:09.350 --> 00:01:12.960
across all industries and revenue sizes.

24
00:01:12.960 --> 00:01:15.250
The Digital Ecosystem Accelerator

25
00:01:15.250 --> 00:01:17.260
assesses a company's maturity

26
00:01:17.260 --> 00:01:20.130
by helping it answer three questions.

27
00:01:20.130 --> 00:01:23.240
Why should I engage in digital ecosystems?

28
00:01:23.240 --> 00:01:25.250
What do I want to achieve?

29
00:01:25.250 --> 00:01:27.840
And am I ready to build or participate

30
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.010
in digital ecosystem business models?

31
00:01:31.010 --> 00:01:34.680
In today's world of rapidly emerging digital technologies

32
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.790
and innovative business models, two things seem certain.

33
00:01:38.790 --> 00:01:41.620
First, digital ecosystem business models

34
00:01:41.620 --> 00:01:43.620
are going to play an outsized role

35
00:01:43.620 --> 00:01:47.040
in many consumer and B2B sectors.

36
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.103
Second, most companies are not prepared for this transition.

37
00:01:52.110 --> 00:01:54.960
The Digital Ecosystem Accelerator is a tool

38
00:01:54.960 --> 00:01:57.140
for rapid check-up and assessment,

39
00:01:57.140 --> 00:01:59.890
supported by a growing database of information

40
00:01:59.890 --> 00:02:02.460
about digital ecosystems activity

41
00:02:02.460 --> 00:02:06.828
in virtually every major industry, region and marketplace.
