Innovative Collaboration
Varioprint AG and IntexyS Photonics
What’s innovative?
• Intexys Photonics and
Varioprint AG Partnered
with the IBM Zurich
Research to develop a cost
competitive, optical data
transmission solution to
increase the bandwidth
between processor chips.

Disruptive and Radical Innovation
Bandwidth Density of Objects
All Electrical All Optical
Today, optical interconnects are used
for long-distance intra-cluster
connections due to high bandwidth
(BW) capabilities
As BW requirements increase, optics
will be able to provide a cost- IBM Federation Switch
performance advantage for even copper and optical interconnect
shorter distances, for backplane and versions
card level interconnects

Building and Maintaining a Health Ecosystem
Broadly speaking, there are two foundational components of an
effective keystone strategy. The first is to create value within the
ecosystem […] the second is to then share the value within the
ecosystem (Iansiti, 2004)
“Successful innovation requires tracking your partners and
potential adopters as closely as you track your own development
process” (R. Adner, 2006)
Supply Chain Ecosystem Strategy
Actively create and “manage” supplier base, create value
for suppliers ( support adoption of the technology in an
entry market).
Track ecosystem risk.

What is a Jam?
IBM’s approach for business collaboration and enterprise transformation
• Online collaborative
discussions for audiences
ranging in size from a few
hundred to hundreds of
thousands
• Innovation events to
capture the pulse of the
group or to solicit specific
ideas to critical business
issues
