• Present findings directly to senior stakeholders, including the CEO

• Contextualize PhaseV's positioning within a rapidly evolving landscape
• Define and conceptualize an AI-powered agent (or structured workflow) that monitors competitors, tracks relevant publications and press, and surfaces updates automatically, reducing manual tracking overhead in the future
