フォーカスするためには、たぶんどうやってフォーカスするか(前回)に加えて、何にフォーカスするかを決める必要があって、今回は後者、つまり「フォーカスポイントを決める」方の話です。
スタートアップの初期は Y Combinator 的に言うところの Do things that don’t scale (スケールしないことをしよう)をはじめとした明確なフォーカスポイントがあると思います。ただ次第に自分たちでフォーカスポイントを決めなければいけなくなってきて、そのときにどのようにフォーカス先を意思決定すれば良いのか、どうすれば良い意思決定ができるのか、という問いが出てきて、その際に方法論の必要性が生じます。
そこで意思決定の方法論を検討するのですが、スタートアップのような情報不足や資源の制約下では、ゲーム理論をはじめとしたいわゆる規範的な normative 意思決定理論よりは、行動経済学や認知心理学の記述的な descriptive 意思決定からのアプローチが良いのかなと思い、Kahneman をはじめとした行動経済学の研究成果をベースにしています。

Y Combinator のプログラムを通して、数百社のスタートアップに対して アドバイスを続け、Y Combinator が他アクセラレーターとは別格のスタートアップを続々と輩出してこれたのは、おそらく Paul Graham のスタートアップへのアドバイスが的確だったからだろう、と思っています。なので日本でも Paul Graham のエッセイにアクセスしやすくなれば、スタートアップの皆さんの架空の相談先の一つとして役立つのではないか、と思いまとめた次第です。

"Empathy is at the heart of design", - - - how to get it?TAKA KONDO
Empathy is at the heart of design thinking according to Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO. Design thinking involves the processes of empathizing, defining, ideating, prototyping, and testing, with various tools and practices existing to support these processes. For consumer businesses, a challenge is how to practice design thinking and empathize with target customers globally in this era of increased internationalization. Tansalink is building an online platform to help businesses empathize with potential customers worldwide.
What's the most important thing to enjoy results from Open Innovation?TAKA KONDO
Open innovation involves solving problems using both an organization's internal resources as well as external resources from other companies, startups, universities, and research institutes. The most important aspect of open innovation is identifying the right problem to solve. Figuring out the concrete vision and sharing it with partners is also key. Once the right problem is identified, an organization can lead the process of connecting different resources to develop an innovative solution. For consumer businesses, properly identifying user needs and problems in an era of globalization is an important challenge that open innovation can help address.
A thought on "Review" - Why people do review?TAKA KONDO
This document discusses why people write product reviews online. It suggests that many see reviews as a fun hobby, as blogging was in the early 2000s. However, most blogs became inactive quickly due to lack of readers. Review sites created a win-win situation where reviewers could share their experiences and consumers could learn about products, keeping reviewers engaged. The author proposes that writing reviews provides an outlet for personal publishing and a way to be read by others.
The document contains quotes from founders and CEOs of successful companies criticizing traditional market research and instead advocating for creating new products that fulfill needs people may not realize they have or want until they are shown. The quotes suggest that market research does not work for new products and that companies should focus on innovating and creating new things for customers rather than trying to give them what research says they want.
Market research is not always accurate and cannot predict the future. Several examples are given of market research failing to foresee successful innovations like the Walkman, New Coke, internet banking, camera phones, Twitter, and more. Customers often don't know their own needs and preferences for the future. Market research only provides information about current demands and opinions.
The document discusses the role and effectiveness of market research for new products. While market research can be useful for evaluating existing products and estimating production aspects, several founders of major companies argue that it does not work for creating truly innovative new products, as people may not know what they want until they see it. Market research is better suited for marketing, communications, and production planning rather than the initial creation of new product ideas. The document quotes several founders expressing skepticism about relying too heavily on market research for developing new products.
Does silicon valley style work in your place?TAKA KONDO
In many places, people have been trying to build their own “Silicon Valley”. But none of them were successful as long as I know. Look at the world from a different perspective, there should be better examples. It might be old but new style. This slide shows my thoughts on starting a business outside USA.
"Why Apple can create blockbusters?" ~ Re-think: Product PlanningTAKA KONDO
Many companies conduct product management without product planning.
They copy a product which is originally designed by other companies, and modify it.
They strive to survey technology/market trends and roadmaps from leading companies/giant research firms.
And they enhance the variety of functions and/or the numbers to make their spec table better.
They love to swim in the ‘red ocean’.
Apple is one of the companies which is carrying out product planning as well as product management.
It often enters the market very late, but re-creates the market itself.
Apple strives to understand what the user-experiences the customer looks for, values, and needs,
and re-invents the product category to make customers’ lifestyle better.
Apple loves to make her heart sing with her product.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
