About the Event
Digital strategy isn’t just about products, platforms, or customer experience. The real game is played underneath — in the utilities that make those strategies possible.
In this next session of our Patterns of Digital Strategy series, we explore one of the most consequential — and often invisible — plays of the modern era: Consolidating Utilities.
This is the pattern where organisations secure strategic advantage not by polishing the customer-facing offer, but by controlling (or creating) the critical utilities that the entire value chain depends on.
It’s how Tesla built not just cars, but a proprietary fast-charging network that reshaped buyer behaviour.
How Starlink sits atop the cheap, repeatable launch system created by SpaceX.
And now, how Google, Microsoft, and others are exploring the revival of power-generation capabilities simply to feed the insatiable demands of AI.
