Jacobides studies industry evolution, new business models, value migration, and structural change in firms and sectors, and looks at how digital ecosystems transform the business context. He asserts that success is as much about helping other firms to innovate as it is about being innovative yourself, and that customer-centric products that cross boundaries will create new firms and new types of competition.
The Sir Donald Gordon Chair of Entrepreneurship and Innovation, and professor of strategy at London Business School, Jacobides is also academic advisor to the Boston Consulting Group, a visiting scholar at the New York Fed, and visiting fellow at Cambridge. He is a member of the EU High Level Group on Innovation, and has worked with the UK parliament on the future of financial services.
