Team Thoughts: What should we focus on?

Thoughts from today's meeting, on how to pick focus areas:

1. What areas present higher potential in business opportunities? The re-usable-ness of our output is a key indicator when picking focus areas.

2. Market Reports: R&D spendings? Where are people investing? what are the opportunities for the next 5 to 10 years.

3. Refined Reform Plan: what opportunities it presents? what does it mean for foreign players?
