INSTRUMENTED We now have the ability to measure, sense and see the exact condition of practically everything. INTERCONNECTED People, systems and objects can communicate and interact with each other in entirely new ways. INTELLIGENT We can respond to changes quickly and accurately, and get better results by predicting and optimizing for future events. IT NETWORKS

Our planet is a complex, dynamic, highly interconnected $54 Trillion system-of-systems (OECD-based analysis)  Our planet is a complex system-of-systems Transportation $ 6.95 Tn Communication $ 3.96 Tn This chart shows ‘systems‘ (not ‘industries‘) Education $ 1.36 Tn Water $ 0.13 Tn Leisure / Recreation / Clothing $ 7.80 Tn Electricity $ 2.94 Tn Global system-of-systems $54 Trillion (100% of WW 2008 GDP) Healthcare $ 4.27 Tn Infrastructure $ 12.54 Tn Legend for system inputs Same IndustryBusiness SupportIT SystemsEnergy ResourcesMachineryMaterials Trade Note: 1.

It carries an estimated inefficiency of 42%. From that level of 42% inefficiency, economists estimate that ~34% can be eliminated (= 34% x 42%). Source: IBM economists survey 2009; n= 480

  17. Well Being Index • January 10, 2011By Mark Whitehouse at mark.whitehouse@wsj.com • One approach is to enhance GDP with other objective factors such as inequality, leisure and life expectancy. In a paper presented Saturday at the American Economic Association meeting, Stanford economists Peter Klenow and Charles Jones found that doing so can make a big difference. • Making everybody work 120 hours a week could radically boost a country's GDP per capita, but it wouldn't make people happier. Removing pollution limits could boost GDP per hour worked, but wouldn't necessarily lead to a world we'd want to live in.

  18. What improves Quality-of-Life? Product-Service System Innovations 20/10/10 * = US Labor % in 2009. A. Systems that focus on flow of things that humans need (~15%*) 1.

  26. Edu-Impact.Com: Growing Importance of Universities with Large, Growing Endowments “When we combined the impact of Harvard’s direct spending on payroll, purchasing and construction – the indirect impact of University spending – and the direct and indirect impact of off-campus spending by Harvard students – we can estimate that Harvard directly and indirectly accounted for nearly $4.8 billion in economic activity in the Boston area in fiscal year 2008, and more than 44,000 jobs.”

Service-dominant logic Service is the application of competences for the benefit of another entity Serviceis exchanged for service Value is always co-created Goods are appliances for delivery Alleconomies are service economies All businesses are service businesses Value Configuration Density Resource Integrator/Beneficiary Resource Integrator/Beneficiary (“Firm”) (“Customer”) Value Co-creation Vargo, S. L. & Lusch, R. F. (2004). Evolving to a new dominant logic for marketing. Journal of Marketing, 68, 1 – 17.

  50. Value depends on the capabilities a system has to survive and create beneficial change in its environment. Taking advantage of the service another system offers means incorporating improved capabilities. Value can be defined as system improvement in an environment. All ways that systems work together to improve or enhance one another’s capabilities can be seen as being value creating. What is value? Vargo, S. L., Maglio, P. P., and Akaka, M. A. (2008).
