I'm very suprised to see in 2015 a manager of such high tech company starting to say " Business as usual is no longer an option.." . this is already what other sectors and high tech companies have in their mind or base line since several years !! the problem here is probably much bigger than that , I agree... but having your mind already opened for new opportunities out of your "usual" box, specially in the Imaging devices and semiconductor market, is probably a first good & affordable weapon in this war, isn't it ?!?...
