• Dealing with RISK Assessing Category Risk against a Database for Anti Counterfeiting
• Consumer PERCEPTION
Validating the Impact of Anti Counterfeiting through e-Commerce
• Building an adaptive STRATEGY OF OPTIONS
A Strategy Map for Anti Counterfeiting
Agenda
• Counterfeited products increasing risks to Chinese health and safety.
• Escalating demand for Anti-Counterfeit Packaging & Tracking Technology (ACP).
• Market expected to reach US $62.5 billion globally by 2020.
• Asia Pacific region projected as fastest growing area (estimated. CAGR of 18.1%, 2015 to 2020).

Search Database for Present Technology that Fits
• Overall Questions – How prevalent is A/C for your category?
– What A/C efforts have you used in the past?
– What was the outcome?
– What do you do now? What are you considering?
– How do you see the value and the impact for your business?
• Impact on Sales?
• Impact on Brand reputation?
• Impact on Insurance?
• Who should pay for it? (Producer, Retailer, Consumer)
– If A/C is not used, why? (i.e. what barriers are there to use?)
• Additional Questions – Level of interest in export?
– Looking at creating New Brand or Using Present Brands?
– Do they want to own the solution or have a 3rd party provider?

• Counterfeiting - Global industry est. 1.7 trillion US dollars.
• Counterfeit goods flourish through online platforms such as Alibaba, Taobao & Tmall Global.
• According to China Daily, regulators inspected over 29,000 e-commerce websites and deleted over 7.14 million illegally-listed items in 2012 alone.
• Emerging businesses find their brands pre-claimed or modified in the first-in-first-served legal system.

• Hard to distinguish between real and fake.
• Traditional Shopping Cues Lost making judgment difficult.
• Chinese e-Trust is damaged consumers on high alert.
Millennial Chinese e-consumers are tech savvy and willing to research and engage companies on a more intimate level to assess risk prior to purchase
THE ELEMENTS OF TRUST
• Rousseau et al. (1998) Intention to accept Vulnerability
• Taddeo (2009) Risky Investment
• Luhmann (1979) Familiarity, Expectation, Risk-taking
• Deutsch (1960) Relationship of Mutual Trust
• Doney, Cannon (1997) Exchange partners Credibility
• McKnight et al. (1998) Initial Trust - trustor having little to no knowledge of the trustee eg. Emerging businesses.
• Siau and Shen (2003) e-Trust - hard to obtain,
extremely fragile (1) Information Gathering and (2) Reward Attraction.
• Anti-Counterfeiting technology (A-CT) can strengthen security protection within a supply chain however Counterfeiting will still be operating in parallel.
• Applying the right User-Centred A-CT can empower consumers with the ability to distinguish genuine products and to select with confidence, prior to purchase.
• 3 Pillars of User-Centred A-CT:
Complete Transparency - key to trust.
Playful Engagement –from anxiety to fun.
User-Centred - security validation.

Complete Transparency - key to trust. Playful Engagement – from anxiety to fun. User-Centred - security validated.
“What will help me to decide which user-centred Anti-counterfeit technology is going to reduce risk and increase perceived trust with my e-consumers?”
Q
Working with a Wine Industry Partner
Online Virtual Prototypes
Aim:
To identify Anti-counterfeiting Technology that has the greatest impact on consumers e-trust?
Thermochromic Inks Heat changes the colour
Colour returns back
Delights The consumer with innovative engagement and authenticates the product
Destructive Layered Packaging
Protective Identity layering makes counterfeiting difficult with new designs changing often
Working with a Wine Industry Partner
Chinese consumer panels
Qualitative Multivariate Analysis (QMA’s)
Next Steps:
• Virtual Prototypes of Industry Partner’s Products:
• Applied key Anti-counterfeiting tech
• Playful engagement attributes
• Online open transparency
• Cross cultural study of Australian and Chinese online consumers perceived trust and risk assessed against AC-T.
• Develop e-Commerce strategies for market impact.
