About
Shaking Up The Value Chain is a business innovation method developed for companies which experience disadvantages caused by their unfavorable position in the value chain. Albeit the concept covers a broad innovation spectrum, three manageable steps are designed to reach the value chain ’sweet spot’ in a pragmatic way. Due to this method the brand will build on interactive end-consumer relationships, the brand relevancy will increase and the company will be able to escape the ‘margin squeeze’. In other words: shake up your value chain!
The approach is initiated & developed by Jaco van Zijll Langhout & Eric Bun.
