Donal O’Mahony & CTVR

February 8th, 2007 by steve

Silicon Republic has an interesting and reasonably extensive post on their blog covering Professor Donal O’Mahony and the SFI-funded Centre for Telecoms Value Chain Research

A brief quote:

To understand what the CTVR actually does, it is first necessary to define the term ‘value chain’. It was first coined in the Eighties by US management thinker ME Porter, who defined it as a “tool for diagnosing competitive advantage” and stated that a value chain “divides a firm into the discrete activities it performs in designing, producing, marketing and distributing its product”.
