Institut for Produktion og Ledelse Danmarks Tekniske Universitet John Heebøll Executive summary the single-most important section GetBetterQuick Ltd. is a new knowledge-based company with a high growth potential within on-line monitoring of physiological recuperation of out-patients in orthopaedic retraining programmes. Orthopaedic retraining is costly, it requires extra and inconvenient treatment, it is often neglected for same reasons, and as a result, a high number of patients do not recuperate to full performance. It goes without saying that this is not an ideal situation. Our system allows early discharge plus cost-efficient and convenient retraining and recuperation. Saving potentials of efficient treatment - to society, to healthcare and to patients - are high. In Scandinavia alone, the annual economic savings of a 10% reduction of bed days of orthopaedic patients, which is a realistic measure, are as high as 100 mio. €/yr. End-users are patients with an internet connection in their homes. Customers are orthopedic departments. Users are physiotherapists and orthopaedic MDs. Buyers are hospitals and clinics. First 3 prototype systems have finalized clinical verification successfully. Results are published. The founding team comprises ---, M.Sc, --- MD, and --- MBA, with a background as a CEO of ---. It is our ambition to develop GBQ Ltd. into an international market leader within internet-based on- line monitoring of patients in retraining programs in their homes. We envisage to develop within the next five to six years, a company with an annual turnover above € 25 mio., with more than 80 employees in high quality jobs and an export of innovative new monitoring systems, exceeding € 20 mio. /yr. Several major players in the market indicate good exit opportunities, and GBQ Ltd is expected to be ready for acquisition some 4 – 6 years from kick-off. Valuation could amount to 30 – 50 mio. €. We plan a quick expansion to this level through one ore two funding rounds. Our total capital requirement is € 2 mill. The founding team so far has invested €
