▼ Overview

Regarding recent challenges in new business creation, we frequently hear concerns such as:

- We are working on new businesses company-wide, but only ideas that are extensions of existing businesses emerge.
- We are told to "act like a startup," but decision-making is slow, and we cannot make bold investments because we are judged on single-year profitability.
- Businesses we finally launched didn't fit our existing sales channels and failed before scaling.

The background to these issues is that many large corporations fall into a "startup imitation approach," hitting structural limits. They miss blue ocean markets due to differences in decision-making processes and face challenges such as business withdrawal before reaching the investment recovery phase due to a short-term P&L orientation.

This webinar will confront these deep-rooted challenges faced by large corporations and explain their structures. It will then unravel the factors preventing the creation of 10-billion-yen-scale businesses and present, by industry, the "battle strategies exclusive to large enterprises" to turn abundant assets such as technology, facilities, brands, and industry expertise into true competitive advantages during this one-hour session.

Astamuse possesses one of the world's largest databases of markets/challenges and technologies/solutions (comprising government/fund investments, grants, academic papers, patents, startups, regulatory information, impact information, etc., across 193 countries and 39 languages). We will speak based on our track record of supporting over 400 major domestic and international companies utilizing this data.

* This presentation will be a recorded broadcast of a past webinar.

▼ Recommended for the following people:

Executives, Officers, Corporate Planning Departments

- Unsure how long the competitive advantage of existing businesses will last and in need of pillars for discontinuous growth.
- Considering M&A or investing in startups but finding it difficult to evaluate target companies' future potential.
- Want to transform the business portfolio to fit future markets but cannot chart a specific path.
- Want to include selling existing businesses (carve-outs) as an option for portfolio optimization but don't know how to evaluate or judge the impact on the company.

New Business Development and Business Development Departments

- Ideas are generated, but innovative ones are crushed amidst complex internal adjustments and questioning of "market probability."
- Want to execute new businesses with speed but feel the limits of relying solely on internal know-how.
- New businesses are evaluated using the same short-term P&L or KPIs as existing businesses, leading to judgments of "no results" before genuine growth begins.
- Able to advance to PoC (Proof of Concept) but cannot map out the subsequent commercialization strategies and execution structures for phases 1 to 10 and 10 to 100.

R&D and Intellectual Property Departments

- Have promising R&D themes but cannot think through to post-development commercialization.
- Want to explore possibilities for utilizing proprietary technologies and patents for other applications but don't know where to start.
- R&D themes tend to be extensions of existing businesses, and seeking ideas for new application developments.
- View entry into markets with strict regulations and quality requirements only as a risk, lacking the perspective to turn barriers to entry into long-term competitive advantages.

M&A and Open Innovation Departments

- Exploring partnerships and M&A with startups to accelerate new businesses but struggling to discover and evaluate promising candidates.
- Open innovation with startups stops at PoC and does not lead to major outcomes like M&A or full-scale commercialization.
- Even if M&A is executed, cannot chart specific strategies to create synergies in the post-merger integration (PMI) process, failing to achieve expected results.
- Blocked by the wall of the "Not Invented Here" syndrome, missing out on speed and business opportunities that could be gained through external collaborations.
