“The ability to get a cross section of feedback within the market we are hoping to enter was the biggest benefit of participating in GAP. The program provides a point of reference to the U.S. market that is really important. We are already looking for a reason to come back to GAP again next year.”

“We assigned the students a native plant extract that boasted a high level of scientific evidence, but with low market awareness in the U.S. The team narrowed the opportunity to a sports recovery food in a novel format and formulated a concise market entry strategy for the product. GAP's consult empowered PFR to raise funds to launch a new product in the U.S.”
