Group Project 1: The Cyber Security Company
Instructions
You need to complete this assignment below during the Semester as a Group exercise. I will grade the Group on a final product, and each participant on their level of participation. One can submit for the group.
Fact Pattern: You are the Officers and Board of a technology start-up that has created the latest and greatest cyber-security software products. Your products have application everywhere in the World that the Web is used for e-commerce. You have just received ten million dollars in venture funding to expand the products sales globally if you can convince the VC fund that your plan has merit.
Project: How would you spend that money and why?
Instructions: Please create a power point slide deck to be presented to the VC fund to outline and substantiate your desired spend and how you would support it with business infrastructure and sales support of all kinds. You should also outline the advantages and disadvantages of multiple options for expansion so that the VC fund can understand your thinking and outcomes. This needs to expressly include international markets and expansion opportunities. The VC Fund will approve or not upon your recommendations and presentation. Accordingly, it needs to contain all of the information required for such a decision as well as the appropriate level of detail.
