Abstract:
Case Solution & Analysis for Bonnier: Digitalizing the Media Business by Lynda M. Applegate, Daniel Nylen, Jonny Holmstrom, Kalle Lyytinen
The case follows leading Scandinavian media company Bonnier as it establishes a designated R&D division for the first time. The case, in particular, focuses on its first flagship project, called Mag+, in which it creates a digital platform for publishing digital magazines on the iPad. The case is intended, in part, as an introduction to the challenges media companies face due to the disruptive effects of digitalization, where traditional products and services are challenged by new digital category breakers such as the iPhone, Hulu, or Netflix. To this end, it offers a short tour of the changing print media landscape and reviews major upheavals in its business models. The Bonnier case illustrates how to engage in and manage a radical digital innovation process. In particular, it discusses the challenges associated with responding to the disruptive effects of digitalizing printed magazines. It illustrates concrete challenges that the Bonnier R&D manager Sara Öhrvall needs to tackle as she starts as the first R&D manager at Bonnier.
