I like your elevator pitch. You clearly identify how this product can be helpful in companies to improve many elements in a workplace environment while also decreasing the cost. It lead me to view your venture pitch, you were able to pack a lot of information in that time. I realize to get everything you wanted to include the pitch ended up being much longer than one would like, almost double our allotted time. A level of refinement which can include eliminating information that isn't quite as impertinent to your pitch is a skill and I think your pitch could have benefited from. A difficult task I know, when you feel every part adds value to your presentation. I do think your product is viable in the market and could be definitely picked up by many companies wanting to improve their efficiencies. I do appreciate your viewpoint on how you plan to grow your business model and you're very specific in identifying your team, phases of product roll-out, and the financial costs to the prospective investor. Very thorough!

Troy, it is very clear that your past experiences and venture involvement will ultimately complement your work in this upcoming venture! Your analysis of your own venture, including product features, pain points, solutions, and competition, is very thorough. I checked out some of the larger competition that you indicated, such as Wearable Intelligence, and it seems like a viable model that hasn't seemed to infiltrate Canadian industries in the same way. Companies are currently turning toward solutions that aren't oriented specifically to their domain of work (like LMS or CMS solutions as you suggest), and require extensive employee knowledge and training in order to utilize. This is an area where your venture could shine, taking away the need for costs and investment in this knowledge development, and bring it directly to the task itself, while providing customization directly to the work sector. I was also impressed with your development of phases for business growth, including budget and team considerations. Well done!
