Summary Introduction
Case summary: Technological powers are approaching for fresher and better items, and tech organizations should continually seek after product improvement to contend adequately against one another.

To discuss: The type of competitive environment Company AL and Company SN operates.
Characters in the case: Company SN and Company AL.
