1) More resources can be hired if needed and demanded

Idea 1 Response to Inventors Response
1) Where is the capital coming from? Who is responsible for getting the money?
3) How are you going to open people's minds? Not everyone has experience in creating specific company vision, mission goals and core values.
5) Can we scale up our production? For example, can we deliver 20 systems? We don't have production capacity, resources to scale up?

Idea 1 Response to Challenges
1) Increase capital (investment for longer term focus)
2) Based on economic factors we are and SME in growth stage, therefore long-term and short-term goals are needed.
3) Everyone is involved in the company vision if they are open minded.
4) Vision and mission would join people as they would work for the same cause.
5) Changing only because of short-term goals therefore we need long-term goals and increase capital base.

Everyone has to believe in the Mission and Vision

1)Craig is doing rounds of investment search(?), angel investors
3) Specific training programs are offered, this workshop for example, research from other companies, university courses etc etc.
5) Searching for bigger production space currently, increase of product space, 5.2 million in service revenue, more systems more service and RnD resources needed,

Make it happen:
- Improve Production Process
- Improve Production Space
- Product Engineering Improvements
- Product Design needed
- More resources for RnD and Service
- Saying no and prioritizing of features
- Saying what we do and don't.
