Creating New Markets in the Digital Economy looks at how digitisation is radically changing the way we buy and experience products and services. Sharing her unique perspective of both business and academia, Irene Ng examines the implications of digital connectivity, including the need to design and scale future business models to better fit 'lived lives', creating value as well as increasing worth so that new markets can emerge. The book provides a conceptual framework and practical advice to equip readers with the knowledge they need to develop future products and services that take advantage of connectivity and serve contexts better. With its accessible language, numerous case examples and illustrations to illuminate challenging concepts, this book is an important resource for business leaders, entrepreneurs and policy makers, as well as students of service science, business and engineering.

'In Creating New Markets in the Digital Economy, Professor Ng skilfully makes the extremely difficult topics of 'value' and its creation accessible to the novice reader while, at the same time, offering alternative orientations and useful insights for advanced readers. She artfully weaves together historical and contemporary perspectives with emerging technological developments to reveal innovative possibilities for value (co)creation through the institutionalization of new, market-based solutions.'
