Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to explore the relationship between environmental factors and value capture capabilities and their effect on value capture. A qualitative Case Study was conducted based on interviews from five Key Account Managers and the CFO and CEO of a Business to Business firm operating in the Nordic region. This thesis shows that despite having a superior value offering and high customer satisfaction, industry dominant logic is linked to culture (organizational capabilities) which influence the way a company approaches pricing strategies, negotiations with customers, communication of value and gathering and use of knowledge. These in turn, affect value capture.
