As part of the MAN 633 Inside the Venture (Track 1) course during Fall 2018, Manuel Hammerschmidt and Christian Kunze supported AUCTEQ Biosystems in preparing their market entry. The team delivered deep insights and fundamental due diligence. They conducted customer development and gained insights into required product features and also included several perspectives on potential pricing schemes. What is more, the team looked into how a sales process should be designed in this very specific market and who are the actual buyers in biopharmaceutical labs.
