Successful Platforms Industry platforms are products, services or technologies that are developed by one or several firms, and which serve as foundations upon which other firms can build complementary products, services or technologies. Gawer, taken from Parker & Van Alstyne http://platformeconomics.org/platform-markets/
Characteristics of Platform Engaging customer experience Proprietary storefront and often a marketplace Platform SDK for developers along with developer portal Promotes ecosystem of partners and developers using partner & public APIs Recognizes that traditional channels cannot reach long tail encourage co-innovation Privately labeled seamlessly integrated frontend for any device or Internet thing Platforms accumulate data for insight, strategic control and customer value Platform is a strategic control point and source of innovation Platforms use cloud, mobility, analytics, social platforms and security at their core, a must do and have Platforms are not implicit, its an overt act, companies have platform strategies

Enabling an API Economy
Ensuring Success with API/Digital Strategies 1. Executive and Business Backing APIs are a product to be delivered, not a technology for IT to improve efficiency Lack of executive or business buy-in will result in a technology implementation with no/little impact on the business. Leadership absolutely must participate and back the initiative. 2. Establish a strategy and goals Understand why you are executing an API strategy Set Goals for the initiative with time frames and reporting metrics 3. Commitment to Roles, Responsibilities, and Resources There will need to be resources dedicated to the API initiative. Enable enough key resources to make governance effective. 4. Get the Message Out Involve some folks skilled in formal communication and education campaigns. Do some API evangelist work The core team s role(s) must be understood and propagated Collect and Publish Metrics

Innovation Lab : Case Study
Innovation Lab Case Study1 : Bendigo Bank Technology is no longer an inhibitor of innovation The Bank has delivered to the global market its highly innovative and foundational payments & loyalty platform via APIs. Created widgets for use by merchants to embed within their sites (like PayPal). Available globally. A single code-base has eliminated the need to have 3 teams of developers across Apple, Android and Windows platforms. These developers are now missioned on new products & services. The Bank can now innovate in ways they were simply not able to, or even imagine. At 1/20 of the cost and time (at least). Embraced innovation across the Bank, testing new innovations with speed, low cost, and genuine business agility. We can deliver new innovative ideas in hours / days and also fail fast at negligible costs and test in production with a small group of customers. What s next? Working with IBM global FSS Industry leads for payments and analytics with industry disruption ideas/plans in progress, incorporating Watson, SaaS offerings, Bluemix micro services, plus Bluemix garage services and cross-brand solution & service opportunities. Moving 700+ existing workload instances to ICOS (SoftLayer).
Redy Enabling communities to retain capital In Australia we have been at the forefront of the payments industry for a number of years. From EMV chips in our cards to tap and go at point of sale we have continued to provide technology solutions to Australian consumers. However we have not changed the fundamental approach to payments and this has meant that a % from every credit card transaction continues to leave our shores. At redy we have developed a solution that is keeping this in Australia and even more providing it to charities or projects in the community. Building capability at start-up speed

Innovation Lab Case Study : ANZ Bank Challenges Due to the unknown viability of emerging technologies a more adaptive environment is required that enables new technology or process to be trialed before significant project delivery investment is made. The cost of trialing of technology within a project leads to wait times and or rework periods where the complete project delivery team (business and IT) may be held accumulating time and cost whilst direction is validated or solution reworked. By establishing a Lab environment that can facilitate rapid validation of technology solutions the project delivery risk (and cost) is significantly mitigated and cycle time to release functionality reduced dramatically. Solutions A shared collaborative workspace needs to be created to allow Lab participants to work together and leverage each others strengths. Software Vendors require a flexible environment to install and configure their components into and to create environment patterns from. By creating discreet sandbox environments as deployments of software patterns a dynamic platform is created. Common APIs and functional components will be built within a Virtual Private Cloud and made available to participating parties. Via Integration technology ANZ systems and data will be accessed securely (where required).
