Assignment: Creating an International Business Plan
You continue to provide promising global strategy advice for MediCorp, Inc. The company has been so pleased with your contributions to their strategic planning and development that they would like you to assist with a new endeavor. Leveraging their strength in manufacturing genetic testing devices, MediCorp now wants to diversify their offerings and expand within the field of medical devices. This is a large field that extends to a myriad of products. MediCorp has asked you to identify a medical device that the company can use as a vehicle for expanding into another country. Choose from the list of medical devices and countries provided and note your choice in the ‘Project 5: Choice of Medical Device and Country' discussion area.
Choose a country as a location for MediCorp's expansion and create an international business plan that guides the company's operations in that country and grows MediCorp's business within the selected device's NAICS industry subsector. You will need to employ one of the strategy selections from your simulations in Projects 3 and 4 to develop a strategy that examines MediCorp's potential customers, business operations, financial projections, and implementation metrics. As this client's business grows, Maryland Creative Solutions CEO, Jillian Best, emphasizes that it is critical for you to provide clear and concise analysis in your reports to MediCorp. She remarks, "Success with these reports could mean big things for MCS as well as for each of you. Let's finish strong."
