Notes de l'éditeur
Need to have common understanding on this qst. It was also the first qst asked during interviews w/ NP
Many definitions, but all of the share two things.First piece is New/different, and that is what first comes to mind when thinking of innovation.But for innovation to be called innovation, market value is necessary.
Invention – new, but no value now, maybe in futureInnovation – new, but also successful in the market

Herceptin made us think of personalized medicine in a different way
What are some of the examples?We will be talking about implementing these traits later on

There are many metrics, no magic metric. BCG recommends 3 broad types.Process- Sony launches new product every 20 minutesOutput – NVS – sales from new products
We covered What? (Innovation vs. Invention) Why? (McKinsey growth) Who? Types? Metrics?Now time for a case study as a way to inspire us for thinking about the vision during break-out session
We’ll talk a bit about Nespresso. I was always fascinated by the case, whiile veryone else was building better and faster machines or better and bigger coffee packages, Nespreasso reinvented the model, created Nespresso club, distinct brand, high quality product, and 40% profit margin
This is how roughly market was split, with Nestle owning…
Similar to pharma, from blockbuster model to specialty
Out of 70% R&G, 95% was filter, 5% was gourmet coffee, mostly in away form home settings (bar, restaurant)
Nestle buys technology for machine+capsules and protects it with patents. But for 12 years there was oppsition inside Nestle to dvelop and commerzialize this product.
It took 12 years to start setting up Nespresso, as internal opposition was strong (Nespresso seen as caninbalizing instant coffee business)Nespresso is formed as a satellite company, 100% owned, outside of Nestle office, has its own distribution, processes, personal policiesIdea is to protect new idea from criticismMostly seen as threat to Nestle instant coffee business
Machine partner Turmix, no money made on machine. Dismal results, 50% of machines sold, too expensive, sold through electrical appliances shops and supermarkets, focus on office sector.
Experience in luxury goods from Marlboro classics, ambitious, entrepreneurial, no link to Nestle culture, strong personality
“Tiger team” – willing to take risks, diverse backgroundsLang – strong will, always on the edge, takes risks, likes challenges, wins give him boost
Trend – 35-45 yrs old premium coffee drinkers, at homeObserving
Dismissed MR, said that MR relates to past and that radical innovation needs intuition and observation....JPG favored observing trends and customers directly, targeted 35-45 gourmet coffee drinker, young and affluent
Lang promised 3x salesNestle approved PILOT only in Switzerland
Between 1989 and 1993, several major strategic decisions to partner (previosuly only Turmix). Focus on capsules!!!Can we partner more with companies like Alere or companies focused on adherence, disease management programs etc...
T there was one missing puzzle, which was
Standard dogma – sell through supermarketsAlso, shelf life was only 3 m as it would take 3m for capsules to arrive to supermarkets in US
Nespresso club was a revolutionary idea – direct distribution, turned 3m shelf life (technical challenge) to elegant marketing solution
Hiring of course Geogge Clooney…
…perfecting the art of retail experience and do direct marketing.
220k members by the end of 90s. Pionereed direct marketing, luxury coffee experience, creating loyalty and differentiation. Left machines to partners!!!
How can we have loyal customer, create clubs??
7 years since Lang’s arrival21 years since acquiring technology1997 – 220.000 club members
