The Project of this seminar involves writing a proposal for a foreign direct investment by a major real company into a foreign country. This Week 5 Assignment is designed to provide the global industry comparative analysis that will support your decision as to which industry (Week 5) / country (Week 6) / firm (Week 7) to do the foreign direct investment in.
Your group should select an industry to analyze for your Group Strategy Project. (The industry is the Technology Industry)
You should select a real multinational company from this industry to be your hypothetical consulting client, for which you will be making a strategic recommendation for investment into a foreign country. (The company is Apple)
Then, select 3 or 4 countries plus the United States or the home country of your client company if it is not the U.S. (I only need the analysis for Brazil)
