early-stage

We begin with a strategic needs assessment. This is a detailed strategic business analysis designed and developed by Nexus. Through detailed interview sessions, we will help you to define the key factors regulating your speed to market: Product technology, IP, value proposition definition, market knowledge, voice-of-the-customer (VOC) feedback, access to distribution channels in key geographic regions, financing, the right team, and a viable market entry plan.

Nexus then works with you to develop a Strategic Targeting Assistance & Resource Teaming (START) plan for your specific commercialization needs. Nexus doesn’t just help you with planning, we also introduce you to key market partners & customers to enable you to deliver on revenue projections.
