7.3 Management Team Gaps

Sunapto has a good team for covering the main points of the business plan.

At present, Sunapto is weakest in the area of marketing capabilities to position their company and product in the medical marketplace. Sunapto also needs to find technical capabilities to manage the engineering portion of product development.

Sunapto plans to build two advisory boards. One will be the Physician, Pharmacist and Home Nursing Advisory Board consisting of individuals experienced in the areas of healthcare, medical devices and elder care. The second will be an advisory board consisting of individuals with expertise in business development and growth along with medical device product development. The advisor boards will be used to support and supplement the management team.
