Positioning strategy and business development

There are three essential elements that form the key to developing complex deals – differentiating positioning, effective business partnerships and adopting a cooperative approach with the customer.

Our Cymbi.O unit focuses in particular on development and commercial positioning projects and in addition contributes to open innovation approaches.
