The value chain of the education market is highly segmented, being comprised of a variety of provisions including content, solutions, service, and hardware. More partners are emerging from each segment creating greater competition in the market. This is compounded by numerous types of entities in the education market that further segment and diversify needs. More end-customers are seeking single source solutions that can provide end-to-end answers for their educational requirements, meaning providers entering the market with only a single device or solution are it challenging to have a competitive advantage. As a result, collaboration with partners to meet education’s diverse needs is essential in moving forward successfully in the current market, and can often be the determining factor in achieving sustained growth.
