• Provide IP/Data Recommendations:
  Assess and provide recommendations on intellectual property and data strategies to support ŌURA’s positioning and growth in clinical trials and healthcare research.
• Present Final Recommendations to Leadership:
  Deliver a comprehensive presentation to executive leadership, including strategic priorities, operational readiness, sales strategy, and actionable next steps to drive sustainable growth in the clinical research sector.
