B2C most attractive market is:



B2B/B2C

Austria

Due to:

•High health expenditure per capita •Nurse scarcity

REALITY project, Final conference in Bratislava, Student presentation

CONCLUSIONS Top 3 largest markets of disabled population: Austria, Canada and Mexico. Future demographics: Increasing elderly population. Spending per capita purchasing power: Canada & Austria.

CONCLUSIONS Potential markets requirements: B2C • Increasing elderly population • High disabled population % • Nurse scarcity • High health expenditure • High purchasing power per capita in health

B2B • High disabled population % Sources of expenditure: a) Good health care systems b) Strong private institutions

RECOMMENDATIONS  Market potential depends on the business model chosen.  Elderly population should not be overlooked as a target.  Countries with younger population should not be dismissed, if private institutions are strong.  Difference between user/buyer should be clear for marketing campaign. REALITY project, Final conference in Bratislava, Student presentation

RECOMMENDATIONS  In B2B, consider al people involved in buying center.  Reduce time to market.  Don’t lose sight of unique value proposition.  Use community based innovation to avoid market resistance.  Appeal to psychological needs.
