This is my report on IC of cities with recommendations to the European Commission on how to proceed. Participating cities were Donostia-San Sebastian, Sevilla, Dos Hermanas and Donegal, Ireland. To much effort has been given to build tangible assets like highways and ITK. However, the intangible assets, like people and the "way-of-work" has been neglected. This should be considered in the next steps in order to achieve our Lisbon goals to become the leading region in the world when it comes to wealth and innovation.
Many leading Global In-house Centres (GIC’s) are moving forward to experiment with newer models to create a global impact. The approach aims to maximize the ability of start-ups by bringing in technology. With Global Capability Centres (GCC’s), businesses can create more value and expand their growth in the competitive world.
The progressive mindset of businesses and start-ups has influenced Global In-House Centres (GIC) to explore more realities. The aim is to transform into a global capability centre to gain a more rigid position in terms of the impact of the ecosystem at a global level by experimenting new innovative models.

Value Creation Integration Breakthroughs
1. Beyond the Deal:
Leveraging for “Value Creation” Integration
Breakthroughs
Jay Chatzkel
Progressive Practices
2. Beyond the Deal Objectives
• Determining what is involved in making an
acquisition work in an era of ever changing
economic realities
• Exploring what a “Value Creation” approach to
leveraging intangibles in acquisitions is and why
it is more critical than ever
• Understanding how to leverage intangibles in
acquisitions to develop the key, complementary
capabilities that are necessary to yield
breakthrough gains
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 2
3. The New Era for Acquisitions
• The earlier conditions of what we knew as
“normal” have not and will not return
• Regardless of conditions though, the ability to
discover, leverage and capture value in
intangibles in an integration sets the stage to
yield unprecedented gains
• Good acquirers continue to judiciously plan to
acquire - and do acquire
Be Prepared and Make Great Gains!!
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 3
4. Common Problems in Acquisitions
• Significant value left on the table
• Ineffective approach and planning leads to
disruption of people, processes, customer
relationships
• Lack of institutional learning leads to
repetition of mistakes and sub-
optimization
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 4
5. High Risk and Low Success Rates
Why?
• A limited skill base to execute the acquisition
• A one-sided focus on financial synergies that
underpins a limited view of the gains that could
come from the acquisition
• Poor due diligence
• A weaker position in negotiating the deal
• Unrealistic expectations for regulatory approval
• A slow and ineffective integration of the acquirer
and acquiree into a newly combined company
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 5
6. Acquirer and Acquiree
• Both acquirers and acquisition targets need to
develop readiness ability so they can have their
intangibles/capabilities inventoried and quickly
accessible for valuation
• Part of readiness is cultivation of a partnering
orientation which builds trust, knowledge
sharing and speed in implementation
• Leadership at all levels engage in seamless
integration planning and implementation
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 6
7. Intangibles Capabilities
A Virtuous Cycle
• Intangible assets are what enable breakthroughs
in performance and strategic outcomes in
acquisitions
• Intangible assets are the basis for capabilities
and capabilities are the basis for creating
intangible assets
• Capabilities are a collection of cross-functional
elements that come together to create the
potential for taking effective action – including
attributes, skills, knowledge systems, structures
(Saint Onge)
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 7
8. Build on
Existing Organizational Capabilities
• Organizational Capabilities
– The collective skills, abilities and knowledge of an organization,
both generic and particular to the organization
– UPS and Fedex have excellent general management capabilities
but excel at specific logistical capabilities, allowing them to
deliver items efficiently with high rates of customer satisfaction
• Integration Capabilities
– Those capabilities that are configured and brought to bear in the
specific context of an acquisition
– Building this configuration on continuing basis allows the
company to repeatedly initiate and implement effective, value
creating acquisitions

Value Creation Approach
Expense Synergy Approach Growth Synergy Approach
The value creation approach seeks expense and growth synergies
that mutually support the building of capabilities needed for the
creation of value
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 11
12. Achieving Quantum Leap Gains
in Acquisitions
• Identify key intangible assets of both companies
• Determine how to shape an integration plan that
takes them into account
• Set up an integration and post integration
process to cull and recombine these often
embedded capabilities from both companies to
create a new, significantly more powerful set of
capabilities that are the basis for the new
company’s success

14. Shifting to a Quantum Leap Trajectory
• Level I: Little preparation for acquisition or being acquired - Highest risk for failure.
• Level II: Attention is to “The Deal.” Readiness to do the same type(s) of acquisition
repeatedly but with little new learning or capacity for value creation. Focus mainly
on financial synergies and efficiencies. Marginal capturing of intangibles.
• Level III: Advanced Organizations – Holistic view of acquisitions. Capture and
develop high levels of codified knowledge, skill and approaches. Often have
expertise centers. Greater interest in intangibles but still as “icing on the cake”.
• Level IV: Quantum Leap – Substantial capabilities in both readiness and value
creation. Full valuation of both expense and growth synergies. See acquisitions not
as additive but unique opportunities for transformation. Solid business planning and
project management skills allow for managing the unpredictable. Different
companies have developed particular quantum leap capabilities but no one company
has yet achieved becoming a Quantum Leap organization.
It is not necessary to go lock step through the different stages to
become a Quantum Leap company!! By forming and acting in a
Quantum Leap framework, a company immediately shifts itself
onto a streamlined Quantum Leap trajectory.
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 14
15. Transferring Capabilities
During Integration Implementation
Capabilities transfer issues
• An acquiring organization
Resource needs to think creatively to
Sharing plan and capture capabilities
• Capabilities need to be
identified and captured rapidly
Functional but without being degraded
Skills • Capabilities are often
embedded and unique
• They require trust and
General dialogue to become accessible

16. BMS – DuPont Pharma
• $8 Billion acquisition of DuPont Pharma business unit
• Research in pipeline was a principal intangible asset
sought in the acquisition
• To access this critical knowledge quickly, BMS developed
a format and targeted training for its senior scientists,
recruiting them to engage in peer-to-peer strategic
conversations the day the deal was closed.
• By 8 days after closing, with scientists and BMS KM staff
reviewing this newly captured knowledge in a daily
basis, BMS made all its “asset” decisions. 15 days later
BMS made all of its “people” decisions
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 16
17. Auditing Strategic Capabilities
• Determine how capabilities are being accessed, shared,
and used, and with what effect, as well as who is
involved in activating and mobilizing these capabilities
• Both companies senior leadership, business unit
managers and sub-managers develop lists of top 3-5
core organizational capabilities that enable it to meet its
strategic goals and differentiate it from competitors
• Compare the two sets of capabilities
• Chart out projects the new organization can undertake
to mobilize these capabilities for specific outcomes
• Evaluate costs and gains from the work of leveraging
these outcomes
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 17
18. Establish an Expertise Center
for Integration
• Can be formal or informal depending on the scale of the
organization
• Gauges the readiness of the organization for a range of
combinations (licensing, joint ventures, strategic
alliances, acquisitions, etc.)
• Is the repository and development center for what is
necessary to plan and implement any type of
combinations (including a knowledge base, skill sets,
tools, and networked community of practice resources)
• Mentors business leaders on the required skills and
context
• Serves as an interface between corporate leadership and
those involved in combination initiatives
June 22, 2010 (c) Progressive Practices 18
19. Conditions for Leveraging the Value
of Complementary Capabilities
• Develop and align a commonly held vision, values and leadership
principles
• Review and renew the dominant business logic for the new
organization
• Maintain a strong, shared view of the role of the customer
• Identify, reconfigure and capture critical capabilities for use
• Define accountabilities
• Maintain a sense of urgency
• Sustain seamless operations during this period of major change and
reconfiguration
