Periodic Reporting for period 1 - NANOFLOWSIZER (Developing a disruptive and revolutionary tool for real time inline nanoparticle size measurement, for superior quality control and process efficiency.)
Periodo di rendicontazione: 2019-03-01 al 2019-06-30
Commercial feasibility: There is large potential within the particle size analysis market, which offers various opportunities to NFS. We have established the end-users and analysed the risks of the action, minimized by the designed mitigation strategy. The market segmentation shows that the most profitable strategy is to initially focus on the pharma market, with US and Europe as targets. There are no inline solutions in the market, there are no inline solutions, offering opportunities for a new niche market. We have elaborated the roadmap to obtain the CE marking and defined our commercial strategy (direct sales). We have also defined our dissemination strategy, established our freedom to operate and devised our IPR strategy.
Financial feasibility: We are close to closing a deal with an investor consortium. We have established the budget for the project and carried out 5-year financial projections based on the different NFS revenue streams. The resulting return on investment shows that the NFS is a very profitable endeavour.
Business Plan: We have been able to carry out a SWOT analysis of the business plan for NFS. The main conclusion is that the NFS is a feasible project and, therefore, we will pursue Phase 2.
