While companies who embrace innovation outperform
         their competitors in the long run


         Customer centric innovation requires
         you to ‘think consumer’

         • Customer centric innovation requires the same
           activities to be performed by your marketing
           department

                • Identifying latent customer needs
                • Understanding the potential impact of
                  emerging trends

         • True innovative companies are capable to
           translate these findings in relevant innovations
           to the consumer

         • This requires state-of-the art customer insights
           and understanding of market dynamics
