PNE faced the challenge of deciding which new verticals and markets to extend to and how to prioritize them. This task was made more daunting by the founders' significant operational roles, highlighting the need for detailed market analysis.
PNE's initial reluctance to outsource market analysis stemmed from concerns about value of the investment, particularly whether EntryMapper would be able to provide meaningful insights in a complex and technical industry.
