We typically begin with an IDEI brainstorming session specifically designed for our partner to identify together their objectives and issues. We help them ask the right economic and strategic questions, bring to attention unattended issues, anticipate competition and regulatory changes, market failures (externalities, public goods…), and carry out cost benefit analyses.
