THE FUTURE OF BUSINESS IS OPEN

20.000.000 SMALL BUSINESSES IN EUROPE

EXCHANGE 15.000.000.000 INVOICES EACH YEAR

COSTING 64.000.000.000€ IN TIME SPENT ON TYPING AND RETYPING INFORMATION INTO IT-SYSTEMS

BUT IT STILL COSTS

100€ FOR A SMALL BUSINESS TO SEND 100 INVOICES TO A LARGE SUPPLIER USING “ELECTRONIC INVOICING”

HOW CAN ONE ELECTRONIC MESSAGE COST 1€ IN 2010?

80%  of  suppliers  are  paper-­‐based    

(20  million  in  Europe)  

20%  Are  connected  using  

EDI  or  B2B  providers  like  

OB10  

Supply  chain  lock-­‐in,  top-­‐down  push  =  increased  cost,  low  supplier  saIsfacIon  (but  cost  reducIon,  on  paper…)  

The long tail of paper

Less than 50.000 companies globally HAVE BEEN

SHAPING WHAT BUSINESS PROCESSES LOOK LIKE FOR MORE THAN 100 MILLION GLOBAL SMALL BUSINESS

Nobody wins   Small business remain stuck on

paper

  Large business can only cover a fraction of their supply chain using brute force

  Software developers cannot build “networked” applications, because of the b2b toll-gates

WE BELIEVE THERE IS A BETTER WAY

80%  of  suppliers  are  paper-­‐based    

(23  million  in  Europe)  

20%  Are  connected  using  

EDI  or  B2B  providers  like  

OB10  

BoLom-­‐up  growth  =  viral,  small  business  focused,  open  ecosystem  (cost  saving  for  real,  loyalty  building)  

The long tail of paper

LARGE ENTERPRISES WILL INVITE

250.000 SMALL BUSINESS TO START USING, OPEN, COLLABORATIVE AND FREE BUSINESS PROCESSES ON TRADESHIFT IN THE NEXT 10 MONTHS

SO WHERE ARE WE GOING IN THE NEXT THREE MONTHS?
