Siemens are a great case study in validation about the need to apply a Dual-Force Model to building Ecosystems , yet also there are certain levels of caution in their next steps
This is a week (April 20th-24th) so critically important to Siemens and the Industrial Sector. This is the coming week for HANNOVER MESSE, the most important international platform and hot spot for industrial transformation
Siemens commits significant resources and budgets to this event this takes you to their navigation page to sign up and join in. It offers a “flagship” of their business. I gain enormous understanding of what is “internally” going in or in “selected” collaborations within the organization, in products, services, ideas and their approach to their markets.
They offer an immersive experience before, during and after the HM 2026 with their interactive Booth Navigator and a non-stop Stage Program where you can create your own experience and explore a daily stage program over five days packed with tech trends, industry insights and success stories. You can watch this live on site, via stream or on demand.
One criticism of this HM2029 event from Siemens is they simply do not focus enough on the emphasis of Ecosystem management and what their Xcelerator platform can provide for their future growth, which is significantly more than at present in my opinion.
This is one case example where I would be wanting to understand where Siemens are in the Dual-Force Model. So let me offer this as a case study in validation and caution. They may not even recognize it as a growing problem for them! They need to.
