provides an important intellectual framework aimed at the level of firms operating in business systems, and has much to say to those working on strategy implementation and organizational learning as well as those who think in terms of strategy as "value production" rather than "value co-production."

discards the old concept of value chain, and develops a new relational theory of value creation based around the final customers interactions with the offering and other activities. The resulting concepts are robust and particularly helpful in understandingthe new behaviors and goals of recent Internet companies.Ian Page, Hewlett Packard Research Labs Business Strategy
