Lesson on Innovation as Wegovy Takes Weight Watchers to Bankruptcy


Weight loss drugs Wegovy is no joy because they are disrupting weight loss by diet and exercise in the industry. Yes, before the arrival of those drugs, people have two main options to lose weight: eat well and exercise. But now, those are not as basic as it is just by taking the drugs, the pounds are going!
Weight observer is one of the casualties of redesigning: ”Wellness giant weight watchers have filed for losses protection. Established as a weight loss program more than 60 years ago, weighted observers have undergone many strategic pivots in recent years and faced pressure from increasing GLP-1 weight drugs, which has begun to offer through its own Telehealth platform. ” – News on LinkedIn
Good people, this is what we call market disruption. What these drugs are doing in the weight loss sector with weight where weight watchers participate is what AI will do with many SAAs companies (software as a service). In particular, you will find a new competition basis that will reduce many software companies and release it to the market. I have argued that many SAAs companies will expire in Africa if they do not change for the AI period.

Did you notice something? The company that drops weight observers is not like this. It is a asymmetric competitor who may not even show signals on the company's path, but when the light is glistening, it can blur the perspective on growth and destroy a business.
