A Strategy Inc. Competitive Analysis provides a complete evaluation of the current competitive landscape which facilitates the identification and assessment of a potential market "space" or product position for an emerging technology or a product line extension for an existing technology.

• This analysis includes a full assessment of current, future and emerging direct and indirect competitors, as all entities influence the market perception for a technology.
• Of particular value is accurate intelligence of technologies in the earliest development stage, where information may not yet be available in the public domain (such as those in universities, think tanks or device accelerators around the world).

Critical to investment decisions, a Competitive Analysis is one aspect of due diligence that is best executed from an external source for an objective opinion that can be used to support funding as well as internal decision making. This analysis is often one of the first projects that a client hires Strategy Inc. to perform, and based on the results progresses to more involved due diligence.
