Business planning for new products and markets
A promising product needs a clear commercial plan: who to target, what value to offer and how to reach the market.
Building on a Myrtleed Market Intelligence report, we help you develop or refine your business model, route to market and commercial priorities, with practical objectives and activities suited to your business.
What is a business planning project?
When engaging Myrtleed Innovation in a business planning project, our main goal is developing your business readiness. The project will result in a tailored business plan that is built on top of the market intelligence report produced in the first stage of the project and will be accompanied with a go-to-market strategy including credible and feasible objectives, activities and KPIs for further business development. A business planning project with Myrtleed Innovation serves many purposes: such as in preparation for a grant application, to kick-start a new venture, as part of a grant project, or simply strengthening your current venture's business plan and activities.
Why business planning?
Market opportunities create choices about where to focus, which partnerships to pursue and how to allocate resources.
A business plan connects those choices with your product development and commercial activities. It gives your team a shared direction and provides a basis for assessing progress and adjusting the approach as you learn.
Why Myrtleed Innovation?
Myrtleed Innovation is an established and leading actor within business planning, support and development for research and innovation at early stages of their commercialisation journey, specialising in supporting researchers, universities, spinouts, and European research and innovation consortiums, with these types of activities. Whilst we don't write applications for you or work as project managers for consortiums, our business planning and development activities can be used in preparation for grant applications, during grant projects, or simply as an extension to your venture's technical team. Our efforts have supported technical teams in discussions with potential partners, investors or stakeholders and helped develop business readiness.
