2. Business recommendation and concept presentation guidelines
The presentation is divided into two parts:
Part 1 - Idea evaluation conclusions and recommendation
Part 2- Actual first version of the product to the market
The objective of part 1 is to present to stakeholders the challenge and the idea (if possible please consider also Business Point Of View like market validation, return on investment (ROI), business risks/feasibility, legal issues, Scope, Time To Market (TTM), etc (Advice with your mentor if you don’t know how to evaluate this aspects.))
At the end of part 1 stakeholders should understand the business opportunity and benefits of your idea and want to invest in it
Part 1 should be backed up by the part 2 “concept presentation” which presents the actual POC concept (in real life a development plan is needed at this part)
The objective part 2 – Concept presentation - is to present a valid product POC that results from the challenge and covers the technical feasibility of the idea implementation, answering the technological challenges, risks, main features, important milestones, etc.
Please assume that part 2 will be offered for development as part of students’ final degree project

Original Challenge Statement

4. Business Solution Overview
Our recommendation is…..
State your final recommendation after the completion of the Yin-Yang analysis and adaptation of the “raw” idea.

5. Benefits Benefit #1 Benefit #2
List the benefits associated with the proposed idea. The benefits are the “positives” accumulated at the end of the Yin-Yang session, in which the original “raw” idea undergoes adaptation to minimize it’s negative impact and maximize it’s benefits.
Sometime additional research is needed in order to find all benefits and verify them.
Benefits are based on all the “positives” in the Yin-Yang session
Note:
You can use the list of the problems with the current situation and tern them to your benefits. The current situation may be
Costly
Time consuming
Inefficient
Lacking scalability
Not in-line with standards and/or vision
Technologically backwards
Missing functionality
Non-existent!
You may include examples of current process to emphasize the problems

6. Risks
Risk #1
Risk #2
List the risks associated with the proposed idea. The risks are the “negatives” left after the end of the Yin-Yang session, in which the original “raw” idea undergoes adaptation to minimize it’s negative impact and maximize it’s benefits.
