Industrie: la performance très contrôlée des champions cachés

Business on March 9th, 2015

Les champions cachés sont des leaders de marché méconnus du grand public. Ces petites et moyennes entreprises sont focalisées sur des niches qu'elles dominent à une échelle nationale, régionale, voire mondiale, avec des parts de marché pouvant dépasser 70%. Particulièrement nombreuses en Allemagne, où elles forment la colonne vertébrale du Mittelstand, elles expliquent à la fois la puissance exportatrice et la résilience face aux crises.

Technologically innovative, financially conservative: the secrets of hidden champions

Business on March 9th, 2015

Hidden champions are market leaders that are often not well known by the general public. These small and medium size businesses focus on niche markets that they dominate at a national, regional or even global scale, with a market share often exceeding 70%. Exceptionally numerous in Germany, where they form the backbone of the Mittelstand, they explain both this country's exporting power and its resilience to crises.
