Success Story

Invest Ottawa’s Market Research and Analysis team positions new businesses for success
______________________________

Knowing your industry, competitors, and market is key to developing a viable business plan and successful marketing strategy. Invest Ottawa’s Market Research and Analysis team, also known as the MI team, helps knowledge-based startups to succeed. “If formulating marketing strategy is considered similar to formulating war strategy requiring reconnaissance, planning and execution, we help with reconnaissance”, says Vahid Dabbaghi Sadr, MI team analyst.

Executives at a startup company working with Invest Ottawa are eligible to work with the MI team and Invest Ottawa’s Entrepreneurs in Residence (EIRs). Together these experts address the new business’s specific priorities and conduct market research tailored specifically to the business. A new entrepreneur has access to a team of three analysts, who research goals and objectives with the startup’s team, and ultimately provide valuable industry-specific trends and analysis.
