7 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 These four drivers are interdependent DemographyEnvironmentTechnologyEconomy

8 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 1. Demography, not only the economy, will change the way businesses operate Demographic growth is highly variable across regions Continued urbanisation Reduced household size Ageing Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Change in population size, in millions
9
9 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 By 2050, North America and Europe will merely represent 12,5% of the world’s population (down from 17% in 2000)
10
10 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Urbanisation will continue: this causes specific problems that have to be dealt with By 2020, 60 cities will have more than 5 million inhabitants, and 13 will have more than 10 million Source : ONU – World Urbanization Prospects Cities with more than 10 million inhabitants Cities with more than 5 million inhabitants
11
11 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Other consequences of these demographic developments include: Ageing in Europe, and a reduction in the population of working age, unless migration flows break from past trends Strong rise in demand for food products, concentrated in certain regions that do not all have a high agricultural growth potential – or whose potential will be curtailed by climate change Strong rise in energy consumption For heating and cooking For lighting For transportation Ever increasing demand for clean water
12
12 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 2. On the economic front, the recent crisis will have long lasting effects on the world economy Volatility is there to stay Diversification strategies of companies Emphasis on flexibility Reduced role of government Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Risks of bubbles Risk aversion / difficult access to financing for SMEs Continued strong competition Business cycles will be deeper, creating market disruptions
13
13 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Why volatility ? A result of: The massive externalisation strategies Production / delivery volumes can be adjusted at short notice Zero stock policies The strategies of dominant players on resources markets Dual markets will emerge, characterized by different prices depending on the client … Reduced government’ capacity to offset turnarounds in business cycles

15
15 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Demographic developments will impact the economy Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Development of complex markets Growth in services sectors In addition to the above changes, there will be growing opposition between mature / growing markets
16
16 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 3. On the technology front, several breakthrough innovations could change the way we work, produce and consume New promising fields: Biotechnologies Nanotechnologies Vehicle propulsion Laser and optics Etc … Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy
17
17 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 The speed of change is evolving. Product innovation cycles are shorter and deeper We are in a process innovation phase, with low product innovation Product cycles 2010 ? Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Process cycles
18
18 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Demographic changes and the economy also impact the future of technology – and vice versa Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Innovation = new players new processes Functionality of products
19
19 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 4. Environmental changes are underway New scarce resources: Raw materials, energy Food Space Time Silence / quietness Darkness in urban areas (clean) Water Privacy Comfort Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy People will accept to pay higher prices to have access to the scarce resources This will change the relative price of goods / services People will accept to pay higher prices to have access to the scarce resources This will change the relative price of goods / services
20
20 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Demographic changes are speeding up changes in the environment Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Anthropic pressures on environment

21 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Between 2010 and 2030, world primary energy demand will grow by more than 40% Source: IEA Energy Outlook 2010
22
22 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Given the oil peak, coal fired electricity generation will have to grow – with major consequences on the environment – not on prices Source: IEA Energy Outlook 2010
23
23 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Greenhouse gas emissions accelerate climate change and will have a major impact on agriculture Source: European Commission, PESETA model results Changes in average mean precipitation and temperature between 2011-2040, from the 1961-1990 period

24 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Again, economic factors and changes in the environment are linked Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Anthropic pressures on environment Internalisation of costs

25 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 The same holds for technology Demography EnvironmentTechnology Economy Anthropic pressures on environment Internalisation of costs Efficiency search

26 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Impact on clusters Urbanisation Development of scarcity Emergence of complex markets Reduced role of government Increased competition, low price Urbanisation Development of scarcity Emergence of complex markets Reduced role of government Increased competition, low price Localized pressures on resources Cost increases Internalization of external costs Change in values New value chains, defined by market rather than by product Increased delegation, development of PPP New business models, new price setting mechanisms Change in the firms’ scope of activity, development of multiproduct companies Localized pressures on resources Cost increases Internalization of external costs Change in values New value chains, defined by market rather than by product Increased delegation, development of PPP New business models, new price setting mechanisms Change in the firms’ scope of activity, development of multiproduct companies

30 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Consequences for cluster initiatives and cluster managers Need to internalize environmental issues: Take into account local conditions (assets and weaknesses) Pay attention to the location of activities / relocate ? Adapt the cluster and companies’ organisation Choice of process Choice of market (Continuously) Review the cluster’s frontiers Broaden the scope ? Prepare the « transformation » stage in the cluster life cycle Focus on services ?
31
31 © BIPE 2010 - December 2, 2010 Consequences for cluster initiatives Review the clusters’ stakeholders Open to new players of tomorrow (insurance, etc.) Review the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in clusters Means of governments / regions will shrink find new leaders for the initiatives Interact with individual consumers Reach outside the cluster to the final consumer – wherever he/she is – in order to adapt to permanently evolving customer needs Use local residents to create living labs
