▼Overview

In recent years, various methodologies for exploring and realizing new business themes have been shared and published. However, many large corporations may find themselves in the following situations even when trying to implement these methods:

• Are you a person in charge of new business development, facing declining or faltering core business growth, or are you in charge of new business development while your core business is growing steadily in the tens of billions to trillions of yen range, and have you been told that new businesses of several hundred million to one billion yen are worthless within the company?

• In your past career, have you been able to create deepening innovations by listening closely to the voices of customers and clients, but because management has no successful experience in creating businesses worth tens of billions of yen in new fields, have you been immediately asked for ROI explanations for new business initiatives?

• Have you proceeded with business development in accordance with the latest new business development methods such as agile development, lean startup, and open innovation (CVC collaboration), but feel that you cannot create new businesses of several hundred million yen or more?

• Is the decision-making speed slow, the commitment of human resources to business and the problems to be solved is thin, and the business has become like a degraded version of a startup, failing to leverage the strengths of a large corporation, making you feel that you are losing the advantages and identity of a large enterprise?

This webinar targets such new business executives and managers in large corporations. By sharing why these situations occur, including the characteristics of management decision-making in large corporations, the impact within large organizations, ROI metrics unique to large enterprises, and the applicable and difficult aspects of startup new business creation methods, we will introduce solutions and perspectives to avoid falling into the above situations and break through them.

※Astamuse possesses one of the world's largest databases of markets/challenges and technologies/solutions (comprising government/fund investments, grants, research papers, patents, startups, regulatory information, impact information, etc., from 193 countries and 39 languages). We support new business creation and management for over 400 diverse domestic and international large corporations.

※This lecture will be a recorded distribution of a past webinar video.

▼Recommended for

• Personnel and executives in charge of new business development in large corporations and organizations who feel a vague sense of discomfort or limitations with their current approach.

• Those who wish to understand the essence of decision-making methods and organizational theories that lead to a certain scale of business, beyond just the methodologies for launching new businesses.

• Those who want to understand how to grow and strategize new businesses unique to large corporations, which cannot be done by startups.
