As we are going through eras of social sharing and, more recently, artificial intelligence, innovation in value
delivering is becoming more important, even in traditional industries like pharmaceutical industry. Strategies from the head
quarter of multinational pharmaceutical companies have to be adapted in branch markets and Thailand is an important
branch market in Southeast Asia due to the population size and market growth opportunity. Growth in these branch markets
depend on how much value delivery can be maximized. Three main customer approaches multinational pharmaceutical
companies use to develop strategies are service-oriented, customer-oriented, and digital-oriented approaches. The question is
how these customer approaches differently influence value delivery innovation. In this study, sequential mixed method
approach is designed to gain both qualitative and quantitative results from innovative multinat ional pharmaceutical
companies in Thailand. The conceptual framework in this study can be applied in other countries with multinational
companies in pharmaceutical industry and other similar industries.
