After reviewing the business model literature and analyzing the value curve of interactive television (iTV) services the chapter addresses the following research questions: (1) How to cross the chasm of knowledge? (2) How to explore the opportunities opened by new technologies? (3) Which trends will influence the launch of new ITV services? The chapter describes revenue flows among the value chain elements, critical success factors for achieving competitive position, the role of content, and customer gate keeping in the new competitive environment.
