When the Competition Eats Your Lunch: The Price Disruption That's Coming for Every Industry

当竞争"吃掉你的午餐":即将席卷所有行业的价格冲击


In an era where the global business landscape is undergoing rapid transformation, price disruption is sweeping across industries at an unprecedented pace. The scenario of a competitor launching a comparable product at a mere 10% of the original price isn't science fiction—it's an ongoing reality reshaping markets worldwide. Against the backdrop of economic slowdowns and intensifying international competition, neither established European enterprises nor innovative American firms can rely on geographical protectionism to shield themselves from disruption. Traditional business models are faltering under these new challenges, with companies facing the erosion of market share and the obsolescence of once-dominant competitive advantages.

在全球商业格局加速重塑的当下,价格颠覆正以前所未有的速度席卷各个行业。竞争对手推出价格仅为原价 10% 的同类产品,这并非夸大其词,而是正在真实发生的市场现象。在经济下行压力与激烈国际竞争的双重夹击下,无论是欧洲的老牌企业,还是美国的创新型公司,都无法再依靠地域优势置身事外。面对这些新挑战,传统商业模式逐渐失去竞争力,企业市场份额不断被侵蚀,曾经的竞争优势也在快速消退。


DUSA June Roundtable will delve into the complacency traps that companies fall into during prosperous times, unveil the innovative competitive logics fueling price disruption, and offer practical survival strategies spanning strategic transformation to digital revolution.

DUSA 6月圆桌会议 将深入探讨企业在发展顺境中容易陷入的自满陷阱,揭示价格颠覆背后全新的竞争逻辑。
