• Financial services• Information-intensive• Mid-sized national company• Strong local roots• Customer-owned (federation)• B2C
• Biotech• Knowledge-intensive• Networked organizations• From start-ups to large firms• Ethically complex• B2B, B2C, “Research 2 Business”

MC2 (Winter): LF (Länsförsäkringar)
MC3 (Spring): The Uppsala Biotech Cluster
The Uppsala Biotech Master Case• A collaborative effort that runs April to June 2005 between Uppsala BIO and SSE in which
students put their MBA skills into action• An opportunity for a number of Uppsala biotech organizations to get qualified external
insights on a current Key Issue in their organization Six Uppsala Biotech Sponsor Organizations each appointed a dedicated MBA Team of students
(6 students per MBA Team) to work on a Key Issue • Students conduct independent, theory-informed analyses of the Key Issue and…• ….produce and present a report with recommendations on the Key Issue for their UB
Sponsor Organization Opportunity to interact and learn together with an international, experienced group of
MBA students• Each student spends approximately 100 working hours on the UB Master Case, totaling
around 600 person-hours to work with each UB Sponsor Organization and analyze its Key Issue!
• An opportunity for Uppsala BIO and its firms to gain informed insights into innovation and entrepreneurial processes and cluster dynamics from across the globe

Criteria for Uppsala Biotech MC Phase I Deliverables
1. Key issue analysis Clear purpose of investigation Purpose adequately analyzed and fulfilled Appropriate theory and tools used and explained Well substantiated results
2. Presentation Well structured and clear, logical storyline Concise, convincing key messages supported through data or detail Well designed Clearly visualized and within time constraints (Presentation only)
3. Value delivered to company Recommendations that are feasible and actionable Effective in stimulating action Favorable response from Company Interested Q&A from Company (Presentation only)
It’s for the company and
not for me!
Uppsala Biotech MC Deliverables – Final Presentation
Biotech Day I, June 3rd• Biotech Day 5 Minute Presentation (A)
A 5 minute presentation to be made to the entire group of students and company representatives that gives a brief overview of your project, e.g., key issue, method & analysis (i.e., how you went about addressing the key issue), challenges, and lessons learned. But do NOT include conclusions or recommendations due to confidentiality aspects. The idea is to tell others about the type of project that you did and how you went about it so that the audience can learn from your experience if they are faced with doing such a project one day.
• Final Presentation (B) This is the final presentation you will make to your company, but do not see it as the
final product. (The final product is the Final Report to be submitted on June 12th.) Thus, for the Final Presentation to be submitted on May 27th, push as far as you can for closure on your project. You will then have ~3 hours to make this presentation to your company on Biotech Day on June 3rd (1.5 hours in morning, and 1.5 hours after lunch). Use these three hours to discuss things such as issues that might still need some work, your recommendations and how they might be implemented, etc.
I will give you feedback on your presentations hopefully by Monday, May 30th, so that you will have some time to make changes before the presentation on Friday, June 3rd.
Don’t forget to take a look at the Storyboard Approach document that I handed out recently for some presentation tips. In addition to the content of the presentation, I will be looking for things such as a clear, logical storyline and key messages on each slide. See Criteria for Phase I Deliverables slide in this document for more information.
Uppsala Biotech MC Deliverables – Final Report
Due June 12th, 13:00• Remember who the reader is!
This report is to be written for your company. One idea is to ask your company how they intend to use this report, e.g., developing new internal routines, approaching VCs for financing, etc., and then tailor it appropriately.
Please write the report so that if anyone from your MC company picks it up, he or she can understand what it is about.
Use the SSE MBA template and give a background of SSE MBA, MBA Live, the Master Case, and who you are.
I will give you feedback on this report before we present it to the company. In some cases, some of this feedback may need to be incorporated before we present it.
• Keep the reader’s attention! This report (in Word) may build on your Final Presentation to the company, thus
you may use the powerpoint slides in the body of the document. If you do this, then discuss these slides in the body of your report, label them as figure x, and refer to the figures in the body of the report.
Keep the report eye-catching by using headings, bullet points, and figures. Summarize each section with a key message either in the margin next to the
section or highlighted at the end of the section. These key messages should tell the story throughout the report so that it makes it easy for the reader to follow.
Look at the Connecting Firms Master’s thesis that I handed out in your rooms as an example.
