The <strong>Business model <\/strong>outlined by <strong>Recombo<\/strong> markets a specific technology tool (content integration router) which in my mind is a positive quality because as <em>Brad Mcfee <\/em>states retains the element of \u201cfocus, focus, focus\u201d and as <em>Byron Kask <\/em>states in his weblog entry maintains an element of\u00a0 \u201cnot being too diversified\u201d. Another strong point is the notion of incorporating incentives into their contracts, which will encourage other customers to use their product. This seems like a clearer picture then the one pitched by <em>Ramona <\/em>where the main features of this plan are based on indicators of \u201clots of potential money\u201d. She does a good job of clearly presenting and outlining why Vietnam is a good potential market. As well, the provision of a plan for addressing the economic security of the <strong>Ingenia <\/strong>venture through links to Asian Development Bank, an Australian private university and Japanese investment are sound points but to me the prospect of working in the Vietnamese market is somewhat more of a risk although potentially more lucrative in a quicker timeframe.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the <strong>market readiness <\/strong>may be more broad scale for <strong>Ingenia <\/strong>but as Ana Cecilia Tagliapietra<strong> <\/strong>explained in her weblog the challenges of the Vietnam market and the non-exclusive nature of their product are significant challenges. In contrast the exclusive nature of <strong>Recombo\u2019s<\/strong> technology, their clientele, and commitment to customer satisfaction\/success before expansion sounds like a better approach. <strong>Ingenia\u2019s <\/strong>diversified approach of targeting solid customers in a be there first <strong>strategy<\/strong> as opposed to <strong>Recombo\u2019s<\/strong> focused and steady approach is as much a choice in investment philosophy as it is a choice which CEO presents the best pitch for the best business opportunity. But for my investment I would go with the <strong>Recombo <\/strong>technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my comparison of Recombo 2005 and Ingenia both CEO\u2019s appear to be driven, qualified and charismatic in their pitches but as a result of David Vogt\u2019s scaffolding post I will attempt to describe why the representation of Recombo by Brad Mcfee seems to be a more salient company for my investment over Ramona\u2019s pitch [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":481,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[153],"tags":[431,5431,463],"class_list":["post-2076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mod02business-bootcamp","tag-ingenia","tag-markreed","tag-recombo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2076","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/481"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2076"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2076\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2080,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2076\/revisions\/2080"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2076"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2076"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522sept09\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2076"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
