New world economic landscape
The profile of global economy is changing. The supremacy of the triad US - Europe - Japan
is diluting. Emerging markets are creating a much more diverse landscape of powerful
economies
• Today, the developing world represents 49% of the world GDP, whereas in 1990 it used to be
only 39%
This new landscape, characterized by multiple centers of prosperity and economic power
is commonly referred as multi-polar world

The poles of the multi-polar world
The role of countries and regions is no longer as important as the role of innovation nodes
Challenges for companies
Which poles do you need to be at?
How will you land and grow in those poles?
How will you take advantage of the opportunities arising from that specific pole?
How can you manage a multi-polar company? What can I do from home, what should
I do outside?
Challenges for governments
You need to be the best in class in something. And the class is the world
You need to specialize, taking into account your current situation and market trends
You need to become a magnet, attract and breed the top performers
You need to gain visibility and to interact with the most important poles

The new meaning of internationalization
Internationalization of business activities has become a much more complex. Exporting is
not enough anymore
Today, internationalization is a global management attitude, and a two way road for
sourcing and exchange of:
1. Talent and knowledge
2. Competitive, market and customer intelligence
3. Resources
4. Capital (public and private, from investors, VCs, banks, consumers)
5. New consumers

Globalization spreads to finance
The progress, sophistication and diversification of technology that happened in the 90’s
has spread to the world of finance
1. Low interest rates
2. Growth in securitizations
3. Leverage on those products
Three major problems have arisen:
1. Equity value not asset driven. Risk ratings are not sophisticated enough
2. Very high growth expectations. Appearance of intermediaries, inefficiencies
3. The flexibility of the financial market has pushed the consumer market, made
prices go higher and deteriorated savings rates
The current economic context will push us to GET REAL OR GO HOME

Financial realities and challenges
The current scenario, will impose a series of new realities:
• $15m raise @ $100m post valuation is gone
• Series a will move towards series b. Series b/c will be smaller raises
• Customer uptake will be slower
• Cuts are a must
• Need to become cash flow positive. Business plans need to be credible and show
profit
Also, this situation will introduce a series of increased challenges:
• M&As will decrease
• Prices will decrease. Valuations will be lower
• Acquiring entities will favor profitable companies
• IPOs will continue to decrease and will take longer

Open Innovation as a must
Open Innovation is quickly growing as the most suitable strategy to take advantage of
the new opportunities and overcome market threats
1. Talent and therefore ideas flow from one company to another in shorter times
2. Market cycles are shorter. Technologies become obsolete sooner
3. Knowledge intensity and therefore R&D intensity are increasingly important
4. Technical difficulties are too big to be faced all at the same time by a single
company
5. Lower barriers to entry make competition very aggressive

21. Strategic advice for technology companies
Readapt or die
The economic cycle shift has been dramatic. Changes in cash burn rate intensive
companies have to be agile in applying cost cuts or risk entering death spiral
Death spiral: Slow demand creates less revenue. Less revenue imposes need for cost reduction or
innovation. Both take time to reflect on price, which causes demand to slow more, putting company at risk
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 21
22. Strategic advice for technology companies
Manage what you can control
Reflect the market growth assumptions in your strategic planning by managing what
you can control:
Impact on financial planning: Impact on Operations Strategy:
Spending Engineering: decrease headcount for next version?
Growth assumptions Product: what features are absolutely essential?
Earnings assumptions Marketing: measuring & cutting what’s not working?
Focus on quality Sales & bus dev: getting return on expense increase?
Lower risk Pipeline: real probabilities of closing deals?
Reduce debt Finance & cash burn: where can payments be deferred?
G&A: what departments are essential?
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 22
23. Strategic advice for technology companies
Open Innovation in the current economic scenario
Technology intensive companies should OPEN UP and try to make their IP a revenue
source rather than a cost center. This will provide them with higher and more stable
financing and also a better business model to seek and deploy new technologies
1. Identify New Growth Opportunities
2. Define & Implement New Innovation
Strategies
3. Generate & Deliver Better Ideas
4. Renew Organizational Capabilities
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 23
24. Strategic advice for technology companies
Focus on business model
A Business model approach can lead to interesting strategies in the current situation:
1. Recycle knowledge and products with more creative business models
2. Adapt the business model to a “crisis situation”. Spain has been selling high
tech in this low profile for a long time!
3. Consulting is dead. Focus on delivering tangible and measurable results
4. Include the Open Innovation pros and cons in your business model and b. plan
5. Reach out for the new customers globalization is bringing
6. Rethink your commercial strategy. We no longer sell products, we sell
experiences. We no longer sell to clients, we sell to couples:
Client + Situation = Experience
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 24
25. Strategic advice for technology companies
Adopt a complete technology transfer strategy
Companies should draw a strategy to optimize the strategic use of R&D&I outputs. All
channels of technology transfer make sense and can be combined appropriately
1. Communicate
2. Teach and train
3. Perform R&D Vertical integration in
Technology Transfer
4. Patent and license produces higher
5. Create and manage Joint Ventures returns but rapidly
increases complexity
6. Create and manage spin-offs
You don’t need to do everything yourself, especially if you are a newcomer!
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 25
26. Strategic advice for technology companies
Perform ROI calculations
Performing ROI calculations can help companies improve all steps in the R&D and
technology transfer value chains:
1. To talk to clients -> make R&D&I tangible. Talk in terms of profitability and risk
2. Talk to investors (public or private) -> defend your budget and complement
your business plan. Make a solid budget proposal to the company’s Corporate
center
3. Focus your R&D on customer needs and on market impact -> improve the
market orientation and market insight capabilities of your R&D team
4. To measure your results -> strategic planning. Close the innovation cycle
5. Valuate your IP. Put a market price to your R&D work
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 26
27. Strategic advice for technology companies
Promises versus reality
When launching a spin-off, companies should take into account that investors will seek
tangible investment opportunities. VC markets will tighten. This means less players,
more difficulty to get funded, less intermediates and tangible investments
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 27
28. Strategic advice for technology companies
Summary of best practices
This is a summary of best practices that companies in Spain can apply to themselves
1. Build a talent driven organization
2. Collaborate among technology companies and also with external agents
3. Intelligence: Develop intelligence. Perform situation analysis and ROI calculations
4. Management: Adapt quickly, reflect market imperatives in planning. Create alliances.
Concentrate on high value added segments of the value chain
5. Finance: Use a zero-based budgeting approach. Spend every dollar as if it were your
last. Make cuts. Review salaries. Bolster balance sheets . Become cash flow positive
as soon as possible . Lower risk. Reduce debt.
6. Market approach: Establish solid revenue model. Study your client and its ability to
pay.
7. Technology Transfer: Optimize Open Innovation channels for tech. transfer inwards
and outwards. Start with a solid business plan, even before R&D occurs.
8. Sales: Employ a heavily commissioned sales structure.

Corporate Innovation Strategy
Opinno is an innovation booster and a high-tech business accelerator. We work with
technologies from the labs and optimize time-to-market and success ratio.
• Opinno interacts with their customers as an outsourced department of open innovation. We
establish long-term relationships to allow for business oriented planning of R&D. This implies:
• Variable vs. fixed cost structure & immediate results: As a subcontractor, collaboration can start, stop and
resize anytime. No learning period, Opinno delivers results from day 1.
• Broad sector and technology insight: Multiple applications for one technology. Competitor view.
• Our work with corporate clients is structured in three phases:
1. Protected by a confidentiality contract, Opinno and the client build a catalog of the client’s intellectual
capital (IC) (R&D projects, patents, spin-offs, joint ventures, etc).
2. Opinno and the client then map a strategy for the monetization of the IC, ranging from the patenting and
licensing strategy to inorganic venture capital growth and internationalization.
3. For the top 20% projects, Opinno launches a one-on-one hands-on acceleration, meaning that every
project is managed from the door of the lab till it gets VC funding, gets licensed or sold.
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 31
32. Opinno
Business Acceleration
Business Acceleration is the core business of Opinno. This service is applicable to
startups that have received seed funding (300k€ or more) and that are seeking strong
venture capital funding and multinational disruptive growth. Acceleration occurs in four
steps:
1. Project validation and project back up: Opinno will work closely with the entrepreneurs to examine and
improve their business model and business plan, adapting them to the US VC culture. We will also prepare
proposals for back up public funds from ICEX, Neotec and Enisa or others if applicable (local government
grants, some angel funding if needed). We will create support materials, as a video pitch, corporate web site
or corporate image if necessary (logos, etc)
2. Project landing: Opinno will incorporate the company in the US, open virtual headquarters, and open bank
accounts in the US. If necessary, we will start the paperwork for US investor visa. We will then concentrate
on protecting IP with our allied attorneys, specialist in that particular technology. Simultaneously, we will
perform a “hands on validation”, meaning that we will validate the technology, business model and market
with local potential clients, venture capital firms and entrepreneurs. Last, Opinno will interview a series of
professionals to provide around 10 candidates for the position of EIR, or Entrepreneur in Residence. An EIR
is a professional that has wide experience in that technology area and that, as an entrepreneur, has
participated in the launch of similar ventures in the recent past. This person is normally familiar with
potential VCs, clients, partners, will become the CEO of the company and will bring along other important
team members in the future.
pedro.moneo@opinno.com · www.opinno.com 32
33. Opinno
Business Acceleration
Once completed the first two steps, the company is officially operating and actively
looking for funding, clients, partners and team members:
Phase 2 ends with a one week visit of the original team to Silicon Valley. This week will be an important
milestone where the team will interview and select the final EIR candidate, and visit several venture capital firms
and potential clients.
3. Project launch: The incorporation of the EIR will represent the official US project launch. The EIR will be the
“eyes and ears” of the local team in the US and will work closely with them to create and improve the
“business pitch” of the company to VCs and clients. EIR will work for a period of 4-7 months average to get
the company funded and will then become its formal CEO.
4. Project funding and growth: The CEO will lead the company from now on and Opinno will cease its services
(and service fees) on the date the funding occurs. Opinno’s compensation for services includes an upside in
the companies equity, Opinno will continue close to its clients and will provide assessment on the
management of the company free of charge and at its own interest.

2008, the beginning of a new bear market?
The Financial crisis of 2007–2008has all the traits of the start of new global bear market
A bull market tends to be associated with
increasing investor confidence, motivating
investors to buy in anticipation of future price
increases and future capital gains. In describing
financial market behavior, the largest group of
market participants is often referred to,
metaphorically, as a herd.
A bear market is described as being accompanied
by widespread pessimism. Investors anticipating
further losses are often motivated to sell, with
negative sentiment feeding on itself in a vicious
circle. The most famous bear market in history was
preceded by the Wall Street Crash of 1929 and
lasted from 1930 to 1932, marking the start of the
Great Depression. A milder, low-level, long-term
bear market occurred from about 1973 to 1982,
encompassing the stagflation of U.S. economy, the
1970s energy crisis, and the high unemployment of
the early 1980s.

A New Knowledge Based Economy
In the United States, during the dramatic rise in house prices MEW funded PCE 1.1 to
1.7% from 1991 to 2000, and almost 3% from 2000 to 2005. 2006 was the first symptom
of stagnation
The rate of MEW has been linked to Marginal propensity to consume (MPC), as measured by Personal
Consumption Expenditure (PCE).
Mortgage equity withdrawal (MEW) is the decision of consumers to borrow money against the real value of their houses. The
real value is the current value of the property less any accumulated liabilities (mortgages, loans, etc.) Some authors also use
equity extraction and include net payments received at time of house sale.[1] In this case the traditional usage of equity

extraction is the purchase · a new house. 45

Derivatives take cover value and risk of the new transactions
First the landlord owned the house. Now it’s the bank that owns it. The ability of the
banks has been to turn access to high leverage and cheap credit into higher housing
prices… but again, this separates the value of credit (passive) from the value of assets

Structured products and regulatory changes compound these issues
A booming financial and market causes the appearance of intermediaries, a subsequent
valuation increase and no direct access to the measure of risk and real value. Structured
products and regulatory changes compound these issues.
• Growth in securitizations
• Leverage on those structures
• Increased leverage on bank’s balance sheets
• Often miss-rated by agencies
• Repeal of Glass-Steagall
• Regulatory changes encouraging home ownership
The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 established the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in the United States and included
banking reforms, some of which were designed to control speculation. Some provisions such as Regulation Q, which allowed the
Federal Reserve to regulate interest rates in savings accounts, were repealed by the Depository Institutions Deregulation and
Monetary Control Act of 1980. Provisions that prohibit a bank holding company from owning other financial companies were
repealed on November 12, 1999, by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act,

• Frozen credit markets paralyze new investments
• Weak household balance sheet
• Globally synchronized slowing exacerbating all of above and causing a significant
risk to gdp growth
