Case Study Prompt

Our client is a start-up with the ability to deliver broadband internet to commercial airlines. There is general interest in broadband internet from the airline industry. The start up would have to invest relatively little up front and would keep most of the revenues. They would charge the customers on a per flight pricing model.

How would you help them think about their offering?
