- Opening a new branch, domestically or overseas
- Development of a new product or service
- Internal research
- Supply chain
- Import & export of a new or existing product
- Anything related to international (or domestic) business management, which will help you fine-tune the steps/processes required to succeed in your endeavour
The students will not be executing the project tasks; they will only outline them for you.
