White Space is writing a cross-industry white paper analysing responses to the economic downturn

5 March 2009

The white paper will explore the main challenges faced in different sectors and activities which have been undertaken as a direct response to these challenges.

As part of this white paper, we are holding brief discussions with a number of Directors and key decision makers across several sectors to understand their perspectives and reasons for their actions.

Areas of interest include:

• How has customer behaviour changed? Are customers more interested in investing in long term products or more concerned with reducing spend now and how does this differ between industries? 

• How have companies changed their business model to cope with the recession? This could be through entering new markets, changing product ranges or shifting focus from marketing to sales.

• When are sectors expected to recover? We are interested in personal views as to when industries should start to see an improvement.

White Space is a strategy consultancy working for many blue chip clients, including Lloyds TSB, Carphone Warehouse and Wincanton.  We are therefore in a strong position to provide an impartial sounding board for your own ideas and issues regarding the downturn.

If you have any insight into how your industry is being affected by the economic downturn and would like to participate in one of our discussions please contact Archie Hardyment, Project Manager on 01865 793 800.
