When high-tech firms collaborate with their lead users, new (product) innovations are often produced! ❓ But how groundbreaking are these innovations? Are they Schumpeterian (i.e. disequilibrating and potentially impacting your entire industry) or Kirznerian (i.e. maintain existing standards and practice in the industry) opportunities? ❓ More importantly, under what conditions do collaborations between high-tech producer firms and their customers lead to the the disequilibrating Schumpeterian product opportunities? In our recent paper authored by Jeroen de Jong, Max Mulhuijzen, Katrin Merfeld, Coen Rigtering, Timo van Balen and Mathias Boënne, in JPIM Journal of Product Innovation Management, address exactly this question. ⚡ Our analyses show that lead userness of customers is indeed positively related to Schumpeterian product opportunities. But that this relationship is strongest when: 🚀 The collaboration is with a 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿, with whom the relationship started only recently; 🐭 When the involved customers are 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁 market players; 🏭 The producer firm invest a lot in their 𝗥&𝗗 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀, so as to better incorporate lead customer insights. So, as a high-tech firm you shouldn’t just work with any customer if you want the chance to create groundbreaking product innovations!

Together with colleagues from Utrecht University School of Economics, we have a new paper out in JPIM Journal of Product Innovation Management! 🥳 Studying a sample of Dutch high-tech SMEs, we research if collaborating with innovative B2B customers leads firms to develop more radical, disequilibrating industrial products. The answer is yes! But, as can be read in the full paper (https://lnkd.in/dXyJ-9FU), we also highlight nuances. The relationship depends on the duration of the relationship with the customer, the market position of the customer, and the producer firm's R&D investments.
