Building Digital Partnerships and Ecosystems

Learning how to collaborate with partners and build ecosystems is one of the most critical, yet underdeveloped, skills of executives in the 21st century.

Indeed, many industries are being disrupted by digital technologies and the arrival of the 4th industrial revolution. This trend will only accelerate in the coming years. You can chose to transform your business on your own or go in together with partners. Such collaborations will help you acquire new digital skills, build new business models - such as digital platforms - and harness the power of ecosystems.

However, collaborations are often difficult because they involve companies in different industries, established business and start-ups as well as public and private sector firms.

Building Digital Partnerships and Ecosystems will introduce how to navigate the shifting landscape of digital technologies, help you understand which partnerships your business needs to win in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution and how you can become a better partner.
