VF could be the ultimate lead-user: This is where stuff goes when it dies, and all the problems and needs of waste are visible here – and intense efforts to find solutions to the problems and needs of waste is omnipresent.
By opening up and facilitating VFs experienced problems, and entering into R&D collaborations with researchers and entrepreneuars VF can motivate and illuminate solution finders - AND provide prof-of-concept and showcases.

VF could be the ultimate lead-user ina regulated market but what happens when the incineration industry opens for liberalization and it does not have a guaranteed amount of waste driven to it on daily bases. Liberalization seems to change the lead-user paradigm then. Who is the new lead-user? Waste-producing companies?
ReplyDeleteMore importantly, how can new value be created to the new lead-users so as to keep VF competible considering international low price competition? Partner with who?
