Interactive Training:
Building and Maintaining a Competitive Advantage
New Ventures that enter a market with a valuable new product or
service have the advantages of a first mover. However, if the
product/service is successful in the market, new competitors will
rapidly enter imitating the distinctive product characteristics.
The entrepreneur must develop and implement an effective
competitive strategy, to build a sustainable competitive advantage.
In this training, competitive strategies for new venture firms and
ways of developing sustainable competitive advantages will be
discussed, and key points illustrated using case examples.
