"Company X," a technology company, is known for being one of the world’s largest semiconductor chip manufacturers; however, they are also one of the largest authors of software. In 2019, "Company X" entered a new paradigm where, according to the CEO, while "Company X"’s core strategy has not changed, "Company X" is embracing the transition to a data-centric company from a PC-centric company. The scope that the project examines is--in this transition to a data-centric company and based on the company's current expertise and competitive advantages--should "Company X" be branching into an additional division or leverage existing intellectual property (IP)? The goal of the project is to understand how "Company X" can leverage its expertise in hardware and software service packages to maximize the value of the company.
