Blue Ocean Initiative
Systematically creating growth beyond the competition
Red Oceans are industries with defined and accepted boundaries where companies try to outperform their rivals and grab a greater share of existing demand – leading to “bloody” competition with low prof-
itability. Blue Oceans denote the unknown market space, unexplored by competition, that provides an opportunity for profitable and rapid growth – which you want to explore for your company!
