Disclaimer
Zinnov Proprietary & Confidential
In the context of Zinnov Zones for Digital Services in Retail, we reached out to a limited set of service providers that could be
potential leaders in this space. Our set of inclusion criteria enables us to shortlist, effectively based on which service providers
are invited to participate. While we normally see significant interest in participation, sometimes a service provider may
request to be excluded from the Zinnov Zones activity if the timing of the research or circumstances within the service
provider organization makes participation difficult. If a service provider declines to participate at the beginning of a Zinnov
Zones process, it is important to know the following policies:
Some non-participating service providers are still included in our evaluation
o As we invite only leading service providers and emerging players to participate in Zinnov Zones, if a service provider
decides not to participate, we have still included them in the final report if we think it is necessary
o Our reasoning is that Zinnov Zones without a leading service provider would project a partial picture of the market
and make it less pertinent for our clients
The Zinnov Zones report clearly differentiates service providers that did not undergo the same rigorous evaluation as its
peers
