Customers and Markets
Service industries account for the majority of jobs, GDP, exports in the global economy. This forum focuses on the importance of service markets (segment size, growth rate, and profitability) and how customers assess service value (e.g., criticality, service features, functions, emotions, etc.). Participants will explore the numerous elements that contribute to customer value.

Join us in discussing current service innovation best practices, operations and excellence issues.
