Cases

How A Legacy Brand Imagines A New Future
Lessons From Fisher-Price 

Backcasting allows you to analyze consumer values alongside trends in business, culture, and technology to establish an ambitious vision for the future.

To avoid crafting an unrealistic vision of the future, start by understanding your target customer—today and in the future. For instance, to remain relevant to future generations of consumers, Fisher-Price set out to understand the values of parents.

Bank of the future

The global banking giant approached Continuum with a lofty challenge: envision the bank of the future 

Banks must adapt to individual customers’ needs and expectations. This requires the redistribution of services that were once centralized at a single branch or location across a complex, customer-centric ecosystem.

Backcasting approach for sustainable
mobility.
Edited by Apollonia Miola 2008.  
... In the second section, a backcasting exercise to define an EU sustainable transport system is developed ...
EU-POSSUM project
The EU-POSSUM project (Banister et al, 2000) was the first project to assess European Transport policies as to their consistency and feasibility, using qualitative scenario based on backcasting approach. 
OECD project on Environmentally Sustainable Transport (EST)
Then, the OECD project on Environmentally Sustainable Transport (EST) (OECD, 2000; 2002a; 2002b) uses backcasting method to consider what the transport system would look like in Europe if current transport emissions were reduced by 80-90%. 
UK VIBAT project 
More recently, in UK VIBAT project examines (Visioning and Backcasting for UK Transport Policy) the possibilities of reducing transport carbon dioxide emissions in the UK by 60% by 2030

Case: Ray C. Anderson, former CEO of Interface
The first international example is Ray C. Anderson, former CEO of Interface (e.g. Anderson, 2011). Anderson invented a ‘story’ within the company to communicate backcasting from sustainability principles. The whole endeavor of eventually
becoming sustainable was named “Mission Zero” and he metaphorically compared it with climbing a mountain higher than Mount Everest, namely “Mount Sustainability”.
