17. Conclusions
CREATING BLUE OCEANS - not a static achievement but a
dynamic process. Once a company creates a blue ocean and its
powerful performance consequences are known, sooner or later
imitators appear on the horizon. The question is, How soon or
late will they come? Put differently, how easy or difficult is blue
ocean strategy to imitate?
As the company and its early imitators succeed and expand the
blue ocean, more companies eventually jump in. This raises a
related question: When should a company reach out to create
another blue ocean? In this concluding chapter, we address the
issues of the sustainability and renewal of blue ocean strategy
