Situation

The challenge wasn't
technical. It was commercial.

An innovative biomaterial company had developed a promising alternative to traditional leather. The technology worked. The product existed. The problem was market adoption.

The founders needed clarity on three critical questions:

Which industries should they target first?
How do buyers actually evaluate alternative materials?
What commercial narrative would resonate with decision-makers?
