At the heart of all our data
Ecosystem —
The external world is complex, fast-moving and uncertain. We explore long-term drivers to understand the landscape within which miners and services companies do business. Some of the trends are global, in which all industries are affected. Others are mining industry specific due to the unique operating model of mining companies.
Strategy —
State of Play research has consistently demonstrated the importance of focussing on competitive advantage and unique business characteristics in the formulation of long-term strategy and for focussing innovation efforts. Our data examines the strategy behind innovation - where are companies focussing their efforts and where do opportunities lie.
Delivery —
The delivery of innovation is complex. Our data explores how leaders within industry implement innovation within their respective companies, how successful innovations have been and what structures are used to carry out innovation.
