— What we take on

The kinds of
work we do.

We take on scoped, time-boxed mandates — typically 8 to 12 weeks — where a small student team can deliver a concrete recommendation backed by structured analysis.

  1. 01 / Strategy

    Market entry & growth

    Go-to-market strategy, segmentation, competitive landscape, and pricing — for startups preparing a new launch or expanding into a new geography.

  2. 02 / Operations

    Process & operational design

    Workflow audits, lean process design, and operational efficiency studies for scale-ups preparing the next funding round or a hiring sprint.

  3. 03 / Commercial

    Sales & customer acquisition

    Repeatable sales playbooks, CRM frameworks, and B2B acquisition funnels — tailored to enterprise or mid-market targets.

  4. 04 / Research

    Market & feasibility studies

    Structured deep-dives on regulatory, technical, or market feasibility — useful for pitch decks, investor conversations, or board reviews.
