Team:Sydney Australia/BusinessModel
Overview & Motivation
Our project has a very viable "real world application", and thus we created a Business Model and plan to the transition from laboratory experiment to a feasible product. We researched our target industry, assessed competitors, risks, and barriers to entry, and combined this information to create a comprehensive business report and pitch to any potential backers. Studying these problems from a business perspective provided influential insight into our iGEM project, and indeed the entire concept of our project is a direct result of the volatile, finite, and environmentally damaging current production method of ethylene oxide. The image below illustrates how our project was directly influenced by the result of our research:

In addition to our business report, we created a marketing pitch which could potentially be used to convince investors and backers of the importance and potential of our project. You can see the full pitch HERE.
Furthermore, we created a business proposal which illustrates how our project can be utilised in the real world and converted into a necessary and advantageous product.
