Transitioning a Technology Driven Company to a Market Driven One

Conventional marketing wisdom is quite clear that long term corporate growth is driven by a company's ability to listen to customers and meet their needs with high quality products and services. Many companies have their traditional roots in cutting edge product innovation, not marketing prowess, which has driven their historical success. The company's culture, processes and behavior is largely driven by development and manufacturing excellence.

Turning a technology powerhouse into a more market driven one is no easy task. This presentation will review the many aspects of making this transition, focusing on the spreaker's experience first hand at Philips Medical Systems and the concerted effort to make Philips Medical, and all of Philips more market driven.
